| Exodus 32 Text (WEB)
|
- When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, "Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don't know what has become of him."
- Aaron said to them, "Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me."
- All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
- He received what they handed him, and fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a molten calf; and they said, "These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt."
- When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, "Tomorrow shall be a feast to Yahweh."
- They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
- Yahweh spoke to Moses, "Go, get down; for your people, who you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves!
- They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molten calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, 'These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.'"
- Yahweh said to Moses, "I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people.
- Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation."
- Moses begged Yahweh his God, and said, "Yahweh, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
- Why should the Egyptians speak, saying, 'He brought them forth for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth?' Turn from your fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against your people.
- Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, 'I will multiply your seed as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your seed, and they shall inherit it forever.'"
- Yahweh repented of the evil which he said he would do to his people.
- Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other they were written.
- The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tables.
- When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, "There is the noise of war in the camp."
- He said, "It isn't the voice of those who shout for victory, neither is it the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear."
- It happened, as soon as he came near to the camp, that he saw the calf and the dancing: and Moses' anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.
- He took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.
- Moses said to Aaron, "What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?"
- Aaron said, "Don't let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.
- For they said to me, 'Make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don't know what has become of him.'
- I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let them take it off:' so they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf."
- When Moses saw that the people had broken loose, (for Aaron had let them loose for a derision among their enemies),
- then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, "Whoever is on Yahweh's side, come to me!" All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
- He said to them, "Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.'"
- The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
- Moses said, "Consecrate yourselves today to Yahweh, yes, every man against his son, and against his brother; that he may bestow on you a blessing this day."
- It happened on the next day, that Moses said to the people, "You have sinned a great sin. Now I will go up to Yahweh. Perhaps I shall make atonement for your sin."
- Moses returned to Yahweh, and said, "Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
- Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin--and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written."
- Yahweh said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
- Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin."
- Yahweh struck the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.

- וירא העם כי־בשש משה לרדת מן־ההר ויקהל העם על־אהרן ויאמרו אליו קום עשה־לנו אלהים אשר ילכו לפנינו כי־זה משה האיש אשר העלנו מארץ מצרים לא ידענו מה־היה לו׃
- ויאמר אלהם אהרן פרקו נזמי הזהב אשר באזני נשיכם בניכם ובנתיכם והביאו אלי׃
- ויתפרקו כל־העם את־נזמי הזהב אשר באזניהם ויביאו אל־אהרן׃
- ויקח מידם ויצר אתו בחרט ויעשהו עגל מסכה ויאמרו אלה אלהיך ישראל אשר העלוך מארץ מצרים׃
- וירא אהרן ויבן מזבח לפניו ויקרא אהרן ויאמר חג ליהוה מחר׃
- וישכימו ממחרת ויעלו עלת ויגשו שלמים וישב העם לאכל ושתו ויקמו לצחק׃ ף
- וידבר יהוה אל־משה לך־רד כי שחת עמך אשר העלית מארץ מצרים׃
- סרו מהר מן־הדרך אשר צויתם עשו להם עגל מסכה וישתחוו־לו ויזבחו־לו ויאמרו אלה אלהיך ישראל אשר העלוך מארץ מצרים׃
- ויאמר יהוה אל־משה ראיתי את־העם הזה והנה עם־קשה־ערף הוא׃
- ועתה הניחה לי ויחר־אפי בהם ואכלם ואעשה אותך לגוי גדול׃
- ויחל משה את־פני יהוה אלהיו ויאמר למה יהוה יחרה אפך בעמך אשר הוצאת מארץ מצרים בכח גדול וביד חזקה׃
- למה יאמרו מצרים לאמר ברעה הוציאם להרג אתם בהרים ולכלתם מעל פני האדמה שוב מחרון אפך והנחם על־הרעה לעמך׃
- זכר לאברהם ליצחק ולישראל עבדיך אשר נשבעת להם בך ותדבר אלהם ארבה את־זרעכם ככוכבי השמים וכל־הארץ הזאת אשר אמרתי אתן לזרעכם ונחלו לעלם׃
- וינחם יהוה על־הרעה אשר דבר לעשות לעמו׃ ף
- ויפן וירד משה מן־ההר ושני לחת העדת בידו לחת כתבים משני עבריהם מזה ומזה הם כתבים׃
- והלחת מעשה אלהים המה והמכתב מכתב אלהים הוא חרות על־הלחת׃
- וישמע יהושע את־קול העם ברעה ויאמר אל־משה קול מלחמה במחנה׃
- ויאמר אין קול ענות גבורה ואין קול ענות חלושה קול ענות אנכי שמע׃
- ויהי כאשר קרב אל־המחנה וירא את־העגל ומחלת ויחר־אף משה וישלך את־הלחת וישבר אתם תחת ההר׃
- ויקח את־העגל אשר עשו וישרף באש ויטחן עד אשר־דק ויזר על־פני המים וישק את־בני ישראל׃
- ויאמר משה אל־אהרן מה־עשה לך העם הזה כי־הבאת עליו חטאה גדלה׃
- ויאמר אהרן אל־יחר אף אדני אתה ידעת את־העם כי ברע הוא׃
- ויאמרו לי עשה־לנו אלהים אשר ילכו לפנינו כי־זה משה האיש אשר העלנו מארץ מצרים לא ידענו מה־היה לו׃
- ואמר להם למי זהב התפרקו ויתנו־לי ואשלכהו באש ויצא העגל הזה׃
- וירא משה את־העם כי פרע הוא כי־פרעה אהרן לשמצה בקמיהם׃
- ויעמד משה בשער המחנה ויאמר מי ליהוה אלי ויאספו אליו כל־בני לוי׃
- ויאמר להם כה־אמר יהוה אלהי ישראל שימו איש־חרבו על־ירכו עברו ושובו משער לשער במחנה והרגו איש־את־אחיו ואיש את־רעהו ואיש את־קרבו׃
- ויעשו בני־לוי כדבר משה ויפל מן־העם ביום ההוא כשלשת אלפי איש׃
- ויאמר משה מלאו ידכם היום ליהוה כי איש בבנו ובאחיו ולתת עליכם היום ברכה׃
- ויהי ממחרת ויאמר משה אל־העם אתם חטאתם חטאה גדלה ועתה אעלה אל־יהוה אולי אכפרה בעד חטאתכם׃
- וישב משה אל־יהוה ויאמר אנא חטא העם הזה חטאה גדלה ויעשו להם אלהי זהב׃
- ועתה אם־תשא חטאתם ואם־אין מחני נא מספרך אשר כתבת׃
- ויאמר יהוה אל־משה מי אשר חטא־לי אמחנו מספרי׃
- ועתה לך נחה את־העם אל אשר־דברתי לך הנה מלאכי ילך לפניך וביום פקדי ופקדתי עליהם חטאתם׃
- ויגף יהוה את־העם על אשר עשו את־העגל אשר עשה אהרן׃ ס

- Videns autem populus quod moram faceret descendendi de monte Moyses, congregatus adversus Aaron, dixit : Surge, fac nobis deos, qui nos præcedant : Moysi enim huic viro, qui nos eduxit de terra Ægypti, ignoramus quid acciderit.
- Dixitque ad eos Aaron : Tollite inaures aureas de uxorum, filiorumque et filiarum vestrarum auribus, et afferte ad me.
- Fecitque populus quæ jusserat, deferens inaures ad Aaron.
- Quas cum ille accepisset, formavit opere fusorio, et fecit ex eis vitulum conflatilem : dixeruntque : Hi sunt dii tui Israël, qui te eduxerunt de terra Ægypti.
- Quod cum vidisset Aaron, ædificavit altare coram eo, et præconis voce clamavit dicens : Cras solemnitas Domini est.
- Surgentesque mane, obtulerunt holocausta, et hostias pacificas, et sedit populus manducare, et bibere, et surrexerunt ludere.
- Locutus est autem Dominus ad Moysen, dicens : Vade, descende : peccavit populus tuus, quem eduxisti de terra Ægypti.
- Recesserunt cito de via, quam ostendisti eis : feceruntque sibi vitulum conflatilem, et adoraverunt, atque immolantes ei hostias, dixerunt : Isti sunt dii tui Israël, qui te eduxerunt de terra Ægypti.
- Rursumque ait Dominus ad Moysen : Cerno quod populus iste duræ cervicis sit :
- dimitte me, ut irascatur furor meus contra eos, et deleam eos, faciamque te in gentem magnam.
- Moyses autem orabat Dominum Deum suum, dicens : Cur, Domine, irascitur furor tuus contra populum tuum, quem eduxisti de terra Ægypti, in fortitudine magna, et in manu robusta ?
- Ne quæso dicant Ægyptii : Callide eduxit eos, ut interficeret in montibus, et deleret e terra : quiescat ira tua, et esto placabilis super nequitia populi tui.
- Recordare Abraham, Isaac, et Israël servorum tuorum, quibus jurasti per temetipsum, dicens : Multiplicabo semen vestrum sicut stellas cæli ; et universam terram hanc, de qua locutus sum, dabo semini vestro, et possidebitis eam semper.
- Placatusque est Dominus ne faceret malum quod locutus fuerat adversus populum suum.
- Et reversus est Moyses de monte, portans duas tabulas testimonii in manu sua, scriptas ex utraque parte,
- et factas opere Dei : scriptura quoque Dei erat sculpta in tabulis.
- Audiens autem Josue tumultum populi vociferantis, dixit ad Moysen : Ululatus pugnæ auditur in castris.
- Qui respondit : Non est clamor adhortantium ad pugnam, neque vociferatio compellentium ad fugam : sed vocem cantantium ego audio.
- Cumque appropinquasset ad castra, vidit vitulum, et choros : iratusque valde, projecit de manu tabulas, et confregit eas ad radicem montis :
- arripiensque vitulum quem fecerant, combussit, et contrivit usque ad pulverem, quem sparsit in aquam, et dedit ex eo potum filiis Israël.
- Dixitque ad Aaron : Quid tibi fecit hic populus, ut induceres super eum peccatum maximum ?
- Cui ille respondit : Ne indignetur dominus meus : tu enim nosti populum istum, quod pronus sit ad malum :
- dixerunt mihi : Fac nobis deos, qui nos præcedant : huic enim Moysi, qui nos eduxit de terra Ægypti, nescimus quid acciderit.
- Quibus ego dixi : Quis vestrum habet aurum ? Tulerunt, et dederunt mihi : et projeci illud in ignem, egressusque est hic vitulus.
- Videns ergo Moyses populum quod esset nudatus (spoliaverat enim eum Aaron propter ignominiam sordis, et inter hostes nudum constituerat),
- et stans in porta castrorum, ait : Si quis est Domini, jungatur mihi. Congregatique sunt ad eum omnes filii Levi :
- quibus ait : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Ponat vir gladium super femur suum : ite, et redite de porta usque ad portam per medium castrorum, et occidat unusquisque fratrem, et amicum, et proximum suum.
- Feceruntque filii juxta sermonem Moysi, cecideruntque in die illa quasi viginti tria millia hominum.
- Et ait Moyses : Consecrastis manus vestras hodie Domino, unusquisque in filio, et in fratre suo, ut detur vobis benedictio.
- Facto autem altero die, locutus est Moyses ad populum : Peccastis peccatum maximum : ascendam ad Dominum, si quomodo quivero eum deprecari pro scelere vestro.
- Reversusque ad Dominum, ait : Obsecro, peccavit populus iste peccatum maximum, feceruntque sibi deos aureos : aut dimitte eis hanc noxam,
- aut si non facis, dele me de libro tuo quem scripsisti.
- Cui respondit Dominus : Qui peccaverit mihi, delebo eum de libro meo :
- tu autem vade, et duc populum istum quo locutus sum tibi : angelus meus præcedet te. Ego autem in die ultionis visitabo et hoc peccatum eorum.
- Percussit ergo Dominus populum pro reatu vituli, quem fecerat Aaron.

|
- And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, 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 wot not what is become of him.
- And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
- And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
- And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
- And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
- And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
- And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:
- They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
- And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
- Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.
- And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?
- Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.
- Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.
- And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
- And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written.
- And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.
- And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
- And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.
- And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.
- And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.
- And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
- And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief.
- 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 wot not what is become of him.
- And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
- And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)
- Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.
- And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
- And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
- For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
- And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin.
- And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
- Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
- And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
- Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.
- And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
