And Jehovah was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him. And I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.
And Jehovah plagued the people because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
And Moses said to Aaron, What did this people do to you, that you have brought so great a sin upon them?
For I was afraid of the anger and fury with which Jehovah was angry against you to destroy you. But Jehovah listened to me at that time also.
And I took your sin, the calf which you had made, and burned it with fire, and stamped it, grinding it very small, until it was as small as dust. And I threw the dust of it into the torrent that descended out of the mountain.
