Deuteronomy 9:21-23
New International Version
21 Also I took that sinful thing of yours, the calf you had made, and burned it in the fire. Then I crushed it and ground it to powder as fine as dust(A) and threw the dust into a stream that flowed down the mountain.(B)
22 You also made the Lord angry(C) at Taberah,(D) at Massah(E) and at Kibroth Hattaavah.(F)
23 And when the Lord sent you out from Kadesh Barnea,(G) he said, “Go up and take possession(H) of the land I have given you.” But you rebelled(I) against the command of the Lord your God. You did not trust(J) him or obey him.
Deuteronomy 9:21-23
New King James Version
21 Then I took your sin, the calf which you had made, and burned it with fire and crushed it and ground it very small, until it was as fine as dust; and I (A)threw its dust into the brook that descended from the mountain.
22 “Also at (B)Taberah and (C)Massah and (D)Kibroth Hattaavah you [a]provoked the Lord to wrath. 23 Likewise, (E)when the Lord sent you from Kadesh Barnea, saying, ‘Go up and possess the land which I have given you,’ then you rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God, and (F)you did not believe Him nor obey His voice.
