Deuteronomy 9:19-21

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁹ I was afraid of the fierce anger the Lord had directed against you,^(A) because He was about to destroy you. But again the Lord listened to me on that occasion.^{(B) 20} The Lord was angry enough with Aaron to destroy him. But I prayed for Aaron at that time also. ²¹ I took the sinful calf you had made, burned it up, and crushed it, thoroughly grinding it to powder as fine as dust. Then I threw it into the stream that came down from the mountain.^(C)
