31. Moses returned to the Lord, and said, “Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
32. Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written.”
33. The Lord said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot him out of my book.
34. 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.”
35. The Lord struck the people, because of what they did with the calf, which Aaron made.
