Reunion of Moses and Aaron
27 Now the Lord had said to Aaron, “Go and meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met him at the mountain of God and kissed him.(A) 28 Moses told Aaron everything the Lord had sent him to say, and about all the signs he had commanded him to do. 29 Then Moses and Aaron went and assembled all the elders of the Israelites. 30 Aaron repeated everything the Lord had said to Moses and performed the signs before the people. 31 The people believed, and when they heard that the Lord had paid attention(B) to them and that he had seen their misery,(C) they knelt low and worshiped.
35 “This Moses, whom they rejected when they said, Who appointed you a ruler and a judge?[a]—this one God sent as a ruler and a deliverer through the angel who appeared to him in the bush.(A) 36 This man led them out and performed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt,(B) at the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.(C)

Instead, they pushed him aside, and in their hearts turned back to Egypt.(G) 40 They told Aaron: Make us gods who will go before us. As for this Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what’s happened to him.[d](H) 41 They even made a calf in those days, offered sacrifice to the idol, and were celebrating what their hands had made.(I) 42 God turned away(J) and gave them up to worship(K) the stars of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets:
