¹And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

¹Kui rahvas nägi, et Mooses viivitas mäelt tulekuga, siis rahvas kogunes Aaroni ümber ja ütles temale: 'Võta kätte ja tee meile jumalaid, kes käiksid meie ees, sest me ei tea, mis on juhtunud Moosesega, selle mehega, kes tõi meid Egiptusemaalt välja!'

²And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.

²Siis Aaron ütles neile: 'Rebige ära kuldrõngad, mis on kõrvus teie naistel, poegadel ja tütardel, ja tooge need mulle!'

³And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

³Ja kogu rahvas rebis ära kuldrõngad, mis neil kõrvus olid, ja tõi need Aaronile.

⁴And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

⁴Tema võttis need vastu nende käest, töötles lõikeriistaga ja valmistas valatud vasika. Siis nad ütlesid: 'See on su jumal, Iisrael, kes tõi sind Egiptusemaalt välja!'

⁵And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.

⁵Kui Aaron seda nägi, siis ta ehitas selle ette altari; ja Aaron hüüdis ning ütles: 'Homme on Issanda püha!'

⁶And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

⁶Järgmisel päeval tõusid nad vara ning ohverdasid põletusohvreid ja tõid tänuohvreid; ja rahvas istus maha sööma ja jooma ning tõusis üles mängima.

⁷And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:

⁷Siis Issand rääkis Moosesega: 'Mine astu alla, sest su rahvas, kelle sa tõid Egiptusemaalt välja, on teinud pahasti!

⁸They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

⁸Nad on kähku pöördunud teelt, mida ma neil käskisin käia. Nad on enestele teinud valatud vasika. Nad on seda kummardanud ja sellele ohverdanud, ja nad on öelnud: See on su jumal, Iisrael, kes tõi sind Egiptusemaalt välja.'

⁹And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:

⁹Ja Issand ütles Moosesele: 'Ma olen näinud seda rahvast, ja vaata, see on kangekaelne rahvas.

¹⁰Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.

¹⁰Jäta nüüd mind üksi, et mu viha saaks süttida põlema nende vastu ja ma saaksin nad hävitada! Aga sind ma teen suureks rahvaks.'

¹¹And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?

¹¹Mooses aga anus Issanda, oma Jumala ees ja ütles: 'Issand, miks süttib su viha põlema oma rahva vastu, kelle sa tõid Egiptusemaalt välja oma suure võimsuse ja vägeva käega?

¹²Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.

¹²Miks peaksid egiptlased rääkima ja ütlema: Kurja kavatsusega viis ta nad välja, et neid mägedes tappa ja maa pealt hävitada. Pöördu oma tulisest vihast ja kahetse kurja, mida sa kavatsed teha oma rahvale!

¹³Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.

¹³Meenuta oma sulaseid Aabrahami, Iisakit ja Iisraeli, kellele sa oled iseenese juures vandunud ja öelnud: Ma teen teie soo nõnda paljuks nagu tähti taevas; ja kogu selle maa, millest ma olen rääkinud, annan ma teie soole ja nad pärivad selle igaveseks.'

¹⁴And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.

¹⁴Ja Issand kahetses kurja, mida ta oli ähvardanud teha oma rahvale.

¹⁵And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written.

¹⁵Ja Mooses pöördus ning astus mäelt alla, ja tal oli käes kaks tunnistuslauda, lauad, mille mõlema poole peale oli kirjutatud; neile oli kirjutatud nii ühe kui teise külje peale.

¹⁶And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.

¹⁶Lauad olid Jumala tehtud ja Jumala kirjutatud oli kiri, mis laudadesse oli uurendatud.

¹⁷And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.

¹⁷Kui Joosua kuulis rahva häält, valju karjumist, siis ta ütles Moosesele: 'Leeris on sõjakisa!'

¹⁸And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.

¹⁸Aga tema vastas: 'Ei see ole võiduhüüd, ei see ole kaotusekisa - mina kuulen lauluhäält.'

¹⁹And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.

¹⁹Ja kui Mooses ligines leerile ja nägi vasikat ning ringtantsu, siis ta viha süttis põlema ja ta viskas lauad käest ning purustas need mäejalamil.

²⁰And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strewed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.

²⁰Seejärel ta võttis vasika, mille nad olid teinud, ja põletas seda tules ning jahvatas, kuni see sai peeneks; siis ta puistas selle vette ja andis Iisraeli lastele juua.

²¹And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?

²¹Ja Mooses ütles Aaronile: 'Mida see rahvas sulle on teinud, et sa oled nende peale toonud nii suure patu?'

²²And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief.

²²Aaron vastas: 'Ärgu süttigu mu isanda viha põlema! Sina ise tead, et see rahvas on paha.

²³For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

²³Nad ütlesid mulle: Tee meile jumalad, kes käiksid meie ees, sest me ei tea, mis on juhtunud Moosesega, selle mehega, kes tõi meid Egiptusemaalt välja!

²⁴And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.

²⁴Ja mina ütlesin neile: Kellel on kulda, rebigu ära! Ja nad andsid selle minule, mina viskasin tulle ja välja tuli see vasikas.'

²⁵And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)

²⁵Kui Mooses nägi, et rahvas oli ohjest valla, sest Aaron oli ta valla päästnud kahjurõõmuks nende vaenlastele,

²⁶Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.

²⁶siis Mooses astus leeri väravasse ja ütles: 'Kes on Issanda poolt, tulgu minu juurde!' Ja tema juurde kogunesid kõik Leevi pojad.

²⁷And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.

²⁷Ja ta ütles neile: 'Nõnda ütleb Issand, Iisraeli Jumal: Igaüks pangu oma mõõk vööle! Käige edasi ja tagasi leeri väravast väravani ja tapke igaüks, olgu see ka oma vend, sõber või sugulane!'

²⁸And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.

²⁸Ja Leevi pojad tegid, nagu Mooses käskis; ja sel päeval langes rahva seast ligi kolm tuhat meest.

²⁹For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves today to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.

²⁹Ja Mooses ütles: 'Nad täitsid täna oma käed Issandale, sest igaüks oli oma poja ja venna vastu, selleks et teile täna õnnistus antaks!'

³⁰And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin.

³⁰Ja järgmisel päeval ütles Mooses rahvale: 'Te olete teinud väga suurt pattu. Aga ma lähen nüüd üles Issanda juurde, vahest saan lepitada teie patu.'

³¹And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.

³¹Ja Mooses läks jälle Issanda juurde ning ütles: 'Oh häda! See rahvas on teinud suurt pattu ja on enesele valmistanud kuldjumalad.

³²Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.

³²Kui sa nüüd siiski annaksid andeks nende patu! Aga kui mitte, siis kustuta mind oma raamatust, mille oled kirjutanud!'

³³And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.

³³Aga Issand vastas Moosesele: 'Kes minu vastu on pattu teinud, selle ma kustutan oma raamatust.

³⁴Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.

³⁴Nüüd aga mine, juhi rahvas sinna paika, millest ma sulle olen rääkinud! Vaata, minu ingel käib su eel. Oma karistuspäeval ma karistan neid nende patu pärast.'

³⁵And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.

³⁵Ja Issand lõi rahvast, sellepärast et nad olid teinud vasika, mille Aaron valmistas.
