Deuteronomy 9:8-16

Great(i) 8 Also in Horeb ye angred the Lorde, so that the Lord was wroth wyth you, euen to haue destroyed you, 9 whan I was gone vp into the mount, to receaue the tables of stone, the tables of appoyntment, whych the Lorde made with you. And Iabode in the hyll .xl. dayes & .xl. nyghtes, whan I nether dyd eate bread nor dranke water. 10 And the Lord delyuered me two tables of stone, wryten with the fynger of God, & in them was accordynge to all the wordes which the Lorde sayed vnto you in the mount out of the myddes of the fyre in the daye, of the gatherynge together. 11 And when the .xl. dayes & .xl. nyghtes were ended, the Lorde gaue me the two tables of stone, the tables of the couenaunt, 12 and the Lorde sayde vnto me. Up, & get the doune quickely from hence, for thy people which thou hast broughte out of Egypte, haue marred all. They are turned attonce out of the waye, whiche I commaunded them, and haue made them a molten ymage. 13 Furthermore, the Lord spake vnto me sayinge: I haue sene thys people, and beholde, it is a styffenecked people, 14 let me alone, that I maye destroye them, and put out the name of them from vnder heauen, and I wyll make of the a myghtie nacyon, & greater than they be. 15 And I turned me, and came doune from the hyll (euen from the hyll that burnt wyth fyre) and the two tables of the appoyntment were in my handes. 16 And I loked, & beholde, ye had synned agaynst the Lorde your God, & had made you a molten calfe, and had turned attonce out of the waye whyche the Lord had commaunded you.
