And he took them from their hand and formed it with an engraving tool. And he made it a molten calf. And they said, These are your gods, O Israel, who made you go up from the land of Egypt.
they have quickly turned aside from the way which I commanded them; they made for themselves a molten calf and have bowed to it, and have sacrificed to it. And they have said, These are your gods, O Israel, who made you go up from the land of Egypt.
Behold, all his companions shall be ashamed; and the craftsmen, they are from men. They shall assemble, all of them shall stand; they shall dread; they shall be shamed together.
Those who form a carved image are all of them vanity. And their delights do not profit; and they are their own witnesses. They do not see, and not do know, that they may be ashamed.
So the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry. Behold, My servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty. Behold, My servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed.
Why have I seen that they are afraid and turned backward? And their mighty ones are crushed, and have fled for refuge, and do not look back. Terror is all around, a statement of Jehovah.
