Deuteronomy 9:7–12

⁷‘Remember—do not forget—that with which thou hast made Jehovah thy God wroth in the wilderness; even from the day that thou hast come out of the land of Egypt till your coming in unto this place rebels ye have been with Jehovah; ⁸even in Horeb ye have made Jehovah wroth, and Jehovah sheweth Himself angry against you—to destroy you.

⁹‘In my going up into the mount to receive the tables of stone (tables of the covenant which Jehovah hath made with you), and I abide in the mount forty days and forty nights; bread I have not eaten, and water I have not drunk; ¹⁰and Jehovah giveth unto me the two tables of stone written with the finger of God, and on them according to all the words which Jehovah hath spoken with you in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, in the day of the assembly.

¹¹‘And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days and forty nights, Jehovah hath given unto me the two tables of stone—tables of the covenant, ¹²and Jehovah saith unto me, Rise, go down, hasten from this, for thy people hath done corruptly, whom thou hast brought out of Egypt; they have turned aside hastily out of the way which I have commanded them—they have made to themselves a molten thing!
