11. And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights that the Lord gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.
12. And the Lord said unto me, Arise, go down quickly from here, for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made themselves a molten image.
13. Furthermore, the Lord spoke unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people.
14. Let me alone that I may destroy them and blot out their name from under heaven; and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.
15. So I turned and came down from the mount with the two tables of the covenant in my two hands and the mount burned with fire,
16. and I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the Lord your God and had made yourselves a molten calf; ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the Lord had commanded you.
