Exodus 32:8-10

8They have turned aside quickly out of the way that I commanded them. They have made for themselves a golden calf and have worshiped it and sacrificed to it and said, 'These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!'"

9And the Lord said to Moses, "I have seen this people, and behold, it is a stiff-necked people.

10Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them and I may consume them, in order that I may make a great nation of you."
