Deuteronomy 9:14-16

English Standard Version

^14 (A)Let me alone, that I may destroy them and ^(B)blot out their name from under heaven. And ^(C)I will make of you a nation mightier and greater than they.’ ^15 (D)So I turned and came down from the mountain, and ^(E)the mountain was burning with fire. And the two tablets of the covenant were in my two hands. ¹⁶ And ^(F)I looked, and behold, you had sinned against the Lord your God. You had made yourselves a golden^[a] calf. ^(G)You had turned aside quickly from the way that the Lord had commanded you.
