Exodus 32:30-32

Evangelical Heritage Version

³⁰ On the next day Moses said to the people, “You have committed a very serious sin. Now I will go up to the Lord. Perhaps I can gain atonement for your sin.”

³¹ Moses returned to the Lord and said, “Yes, this people has committed a very serious sin: They have made a god of gold for themselves. ³² Yet now, if you will, please forgive their sin—and if not, please erase me from your book, which you have written.”
