Evangelical Heritage Version
Deuteronomy 9:17-19
Evangelical Heritage Version
17 I grabbed the two tablets and I threw them from my two hands[a] and I shattered them right before your eyes.
18 Then I lay facedown before the Lord forty days and forty nights like the first time. I did not eat bread and I did not drink water, because of all the sin that you committed by doing evil in the eyes of the Lord and making him angry.
19 I was afraid of the heated anger of the Lord, who was angry enough at you to destroy you, but the Lord listened to me again at that time.
