Exodus 32:1-3

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

32 And the people seeing that Moses delayed to come down from the mount, gathering together against Aaron, said: Arise, make us gods, that may go before us: for as to this Moses, the man that brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what has befallen him.

² And Aaron said to them: Take the golden earrings from the ears of your wives, and your sons and daughters, and bring them to me.

³ And the people did what he had commanded, bringing the earrings to Aaron.
