Exodus 32:1-2

1Now when the people saw that Moses 1delayed to come down from the mountain, the people assembled around Aaron and said to him, “Come, 2make us 3a god who will go before us; for 4this Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt--we do not know what happened to him.”

2Aaron said to them, “5Tear off the gold rings which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.”
