Exodus 33:4-6

New King James Version

⁴ And when the people heard this bad news, ^(A)they mourned, ^(B)and no one put on his ornaments. ⁵ For the Lord had said to Moses, “Say to the children of Israel, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. I could come up into your midst in one moment and consume you. Now therefore, take off your ^[a]ornaments, that I may ^(C)know what to do to you.’ ” ⁶ So the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by Mount Horeb.
