So Moses’ anger became hot, and he cast the tablets out of his hands and broke them at the foot of the mountain. </span> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>Then he took the calf which they had made, burned <i>it</i> in the fire, and ground <i>it</i> to powder; and he scattered <i>it</i> on the water and made the children of Israel drink <i>it.</i> </span> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>And Moses said to Aaron, “What did this people do to you that you have brought <i>so</i> great a sin upon them?”</span></p> <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>So Aaron said, “Do not let the anger of my lord become hot. You know the people, that they <i>are set</i> on evil. </span> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>For they said to me, ‘Make us gods that shall go before us; <i>as for</i> this Moses, the man who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’ </span> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>And I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them break <i>it</i> off.’ So they gave <i>it</i> to me, and I cast it into the fire, and this calf came out.”</span></p> <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>Now when Moses saw that the people <i>were</i> unrestrained (for Aaron had not restrained them, to <i>their</i> shame among their enemies), </span> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>then Moses stood in the entrance of the camp, and said, “Whoever <i>is</i> on the <span style="font-variant: small-caps" class="small-caps divine-name">Lord</span>’s side—<i>come</i> to me!” And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him. </span> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-27.htm"><b>27</b></a></span>And he said to them, “Thus says the <span style="font-variant: small-caps" class="small-caps divine-name">Lord</span> God of Israel: ‘Let every man put his sword on his side, and go in and out from entrance to entrance throughout the camp, and let every man kill his brother, every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.’ ” </span> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://biblehub.com/exodus/32-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>So the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses.
