Exodus 32:22-24

American Standard Version

²² And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on evil. ²³ For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him. ²⁴ And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off: so they gave it me; and I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
