Exodus 33:4-6

New Century Version

⁴ When the people heard this bad news, they became very sad, and none of them put on jewelry. ⁵ This was because the Lord had said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites, ‘You are a stubborn people. If I were to go with you even for a moment, I would destroy you. So take off all your jewelry, and I will decide what to do with you.’” ⁶ So the people of Israel took off their jewelry at Mount Sinai.
