21 Then I took the sinful thing you made, the calf,+ and burned it up in the fire; I crushed it and ground it thoroughly until it was fine like dust, and I threw the dust into the stream that flows down from the mountain.+

29 For I well know that after my death you will surely act wickedly+ and turn aside from the way about which I have commanded you. And calamity will certainly befall you+ at the close of the days, because you will do what is bad in the eyes of Jehovah and you will offend him by the works of your hands.”

11 So the Israelites did what was bad in the eyes of Jehovah and served* the Baʹals.+

13 They abandoned Jehovah and served Baʹal and the Ashʹto·reth images.+
