Exodus 33:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁴ When the people heard this bad news, they acted as if someone had died. No one wore any jewelry. ⁵ The Lord had said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites, ‘You are impossible to deal with. If I were with you, I might destroy you at any time. Now take off your jewelry, and I’ll decide what to do with you.’ ” ⁶ After they left Mount Horeb, the Israelites no longer wore their jewelry.
