Deuteronomy 9:7-12

Deuteronomy 9:7-12

[7] Remember,  and forget  not, how thou provokedst the LORD  thy God  to wrath  in the wilderness:  from  the day  that thou didst depart out  of the land  of Egypt,  until ye came  unto this place,  ye have been rebellious  against  the LORD.  [8] Also in Horeb  the LORD  to wrath,  so that the LORD  was angry  with you to have destroyed  you. [9] When I was gone up  into the mount  to receive  the tables  of stone,  even the tables  of the covenant  which the LORD  made  with you, then I abode  in the mount  forty  days  and forty  nights,  I neither did eat  bread  nor drink  water:  [10] And the LORD  delivered  unto me two  tables  of stone  written  with the finger  of God;  and on them was written according to all the words,  which the LORD  spake  with you in the mount  out of the midst  of the fire  in the day  of the assembly.  [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,  get thee down  quickly  from hence; 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  them a molten image.
