And Jehovah spoke to Moses, Come, go up from this place , you and the people whom you have caused to go up out from the land of Egypt, to the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed.

And I will send an Angel before your face, and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite;

to a land flowing with milk and honey. For I will not go up among you, for you are a stiffnecked people, lest I consume you in the way.

And the people heard this evil word, and they mourned, and did not put any ornaments on themselves.

And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to the sons of Israel, You are a stiffnecked people; in one instant I will go up among you and I will consume you. And now lay off from you your ornaments, that I may know what I shall do to you.

And the sons of Israel pulled off their ornaments, from Mount Horeb.
