Context of Deuteronomy 9:10
8Also in Horeb ye provoked Yhwh to wrath, so that Yhwh was angry with you to have destroyed you. 9When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which Yhwh made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water: And Yhwh delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which Yhwh spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly. 11And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that Yhwh gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant. 12And Yhwh said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image.
