The Golden Calf is Made

Exodus 32:1-6

And the people see that Moses is delaying to come down from the mount, and the people assemble against Aaron, and say unto him, `Rise, make for us gods who go before us, for this Moses--the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt--we have not known what hath happened to him.'

And Aaron saith unto them, `Break off the rings of gold which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring in unto me;'

and all the people themselves break off the rings of gold which are in their ears, and bring in unto Aaron,

and he receiveth from their hand, and doth fashion it with a graving tool, and doth make it a molten calf, and they say, `These thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.'

And Aaron seeth, and buildeth an altar before it, and Aaron calleth, and saith, `A festival to Jehovah--to-morrow;'

and they rise early on the morrow, and cause burnt-offerings to ascend, and bring nigh peace-offerings; and the people sit down to eat and to drink, and rise up to play.
