GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Και ιδων ο λαος οτι εβραδυνεν ο Μωυσης να καταβη εκ του ορους, συνηχθη ο λαος επι τον Ααρων και ελεγον προς αυτον, Σηκωθητι, καμε εις ημας θεους, οιτινες να προπορευωνται ημων? διοτι ουτος ο Μωυσης, ο ανθρωπος οστις εξηγαγεν ημας εκ γης Αιγυπτου, δεν εξευρομεν τι απεγεινεν αυτος.	1 Then the people, seeing that Moses made a delay in descending from the mountain, gathered together against Aaron, and said: “Rise up, make us gods, who may go before us. But as for this man Moses, who led us away from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has befallen him.”
2 Και ειπε προς αυτους ο Ααρων, Αφαιρεσατε τα χρυσα ενωτια, τα οποια ειναι εις τα ωτα των γυναικων σας, των υιων σας και των θυγατερων σας, και φερετε προς εμε.	2 And Aaron said to them, “Take the golden earrings from the ears of your wives, and your sons and daughters, and bring them to me.”
3 Και αφηρεσε πας ο λαος τα χρυσα ενωτια, τα οποια ησαν εις τα ωτα αυτων, και εφεραν προς τον Ααρων.	3 And the people did what he had commanded, carrying the earrings to Aaron.
4 Και λαβων εκ των χειρων αυτων, διεμορφωσεν αυτο με εργαλειον εγχαρακτικον, και εκαμεν αυτο μοσχον χωνευτον? οι δε ειπον, Ουτοι ειναι οι θεοι σου, Ισραηλ, οιτινες σε ανεβιβασαν εκ γης Αιγυπτου.	4 And when he had received them, he formed these by the work of a casting furnace, and he made from these a molten calf. And they said: “These are your gods, O Israel, who led you away from the land of Egypt.”
5 Και οτε ειδε τουτο ο Ααρων, ωκοδομησε θυσιαστηριον εμπροσθεν αυτου? και εκηρυξεν ο Ααρων, λεγων, Αυριον ειναι εορτη εις τον Κυριον.	5 And when Aaron had seen it, he built an altar before it, and he cried out with a voice of proclamation, saying, “Tomorrow is the solemnity of the Lord.”
6 Και σηκωθεντες ενωρις την επαυριον, προσεφεραν ολοκαυτωματα και εφεραν ειρηνικας προσφορας? και εκαθισεν ο λαος να φαγη και να πιη, και εσηκωθησαν να παιζωσι.	6 And rising up in the morning, they offered holocausts, and peace victims, and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and they rose up to play.
7 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, Υπαγε, καταβηθι διοτι ηνομησεν ο λαος σου, τον οποιον εξηγαγες εκ γης Αιγυπτου?	7 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “Go, descend. Your people, whom you led away from the land of Egypt, have sinned.
8 εξετραπησαν ταχεως εκ της οδου την οποιαν προσεταξα εις αυτους? εκαμαν εις εαυτους μοσχον χωνευτον και προσεκυνησαν αυτον και εθυσιασαν εις αυτον και ειπον, Ουτοι ειναι οι θεοι σου, Ισραηλ, οιτινες σε ανεβιβασαν εκ γης Αιγυπτου.	8 They have quickly withdrawn from the way which you revealed to them. And they have made for themselves a molten calf, and they have worshiped it. And immolating victims to it, they have said: ‘These are your gods, O Israel, who led you away from the land of Egypt.’ ”
9 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, ειδον τον λαον τουτον, και ιδου, ειναι λαος σκληροτραχηλος?	9 And again, the Lord said to Moses: “I discern that this people is stiff-necked.
10 τωρα λοιπον, αφες με, και θελει εξαφθη η οργη μου εναντιον αυτων και θελω εξολοθρευσει αυτους? και θελω σε καταστησει εθνος μεγα.	10 Release me, so that my fury may be enraged against them, and I may destroy them, and then I will make of you a great nation.”
11 Και ικετευσεν ο Μωυσης Κυριον τον Θεον αυτου και ειπε, Δια τι, Κυριε, εξαπτεται η οργη σου εναντιον του λαου σου, τον οποιον εξηγαγες εκ γης Αιγυπτου μετα μεγαλης δυναμεως και κραταιας χειρος;	11 Then Moses prayed to the Lord his God, saying: “Why, O Lord, is your fury enraged against your people, whom you led away from the land of Egypt, with great strength and with a mighty hand?
12 δια τι να ειπωσιν οι Αιγυπτιοι, λεγοντες, Με πονηριαν εξηγαγεν αυτους, δια να θανατωση αυτους εις τα ορη και να εξολοθρευση αυτους απο προσωπου της γης; επιστρεψον απο της εξαψεως της οργης σου και μεταμεληθητι περι του κακου του προς τον λαον σου?	12 I beg you, let not the Egyptians say, ‘He cleverly led them away, so that he could put them to death in the mountains and destroy them from the earth.’ Let your anger be quieted and appeased concerning the wickedness of your people.
13 ενθυμηθητι τον Αβρααμ, τον Ισαακ και τον Ισραηλ, τους δουλους σου, προς τους οποιους ωμοσας επι σεαυτον και ειπας προς αυτους, Θελω πληθυνει το σπερμα σας ως τα αστρα του ουρανου? και πασαν την γην ταυτην περι της οποιας ελαλησα, θελω δωσει εις το σπερμα σας, και θελουσι κληρονομησει αυτην διαπαντος.	13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your very self, saying: ‘I will multiply your offspring like the stars of heaven. And this entire land, about which I have spoken, I will give to your offspring. And you shall possess it forever.’ ”
14 Και μετεμεληθη ο Κυριος περι του κακου, το οποιον ειπε να καμη κατα του λαου αυτου.	14 And the Lord was appeased from doing the evil which he had spoken against his people.
15 Και στραφεις ο Μωυσης κατεβη εκ του ορους, και αι δυο πλακες του μαρτυριου ησαν εν ταις χερσιν αυτου? πλακες γεγραμμεναι εξ αμφοτερων των μερων? εκ του ενος μερους και εκ του αλλου ησαν γεγραμμεναι.	15 And Moses returned from the mountain, carrying the two tablets of the testimony in his hand, written on both sides,
16 Και αι πλακες ησαν εργον Θεου και η γραφη ητο γραφη Θεου εγκεχαραγμενη επι τας πλακας.	16 and accomplished by the work of God. Also, the writing of God was engraved on the tablets.
17 Και ακουσας ο Ιησους τον θορυβον του λαου αλαλαζοντος, ειπε προς τον Μωυσην, Θορυβος πολεμου ειναι εν τω στρατοπεδω.	17 Then Joshua, hearing the tumult of the people shouting, said to Moses: “The outcry of battle is heard in the camp.”
18 Ο δε ειπε, Δεν ειναι φωνη αλαλαζοντων δια νικην ουδε φωνη βοωντων δια ητταν? φωνην αδοντων εγω ακουω.	18 But he responded: “It is not the clamor of men being exhorted to battle, nor the shout of men being compelled to flee. But I hear the voice of singing.”
19 Καθως δε επλησιασεν εις το στρατοπεδον, ειδε τον μοσχον και χορους? και εξηφθη ο θυμος του Μωυσεως, και ερριψε τας πλακας απο των χειρων αυτου και συνετριψεν αυτας υπο το ορος?	19 And when he had approached to the camp, he saw the calf and the dances. And being very angry, he threw down the tablets from his hand, and he broke them at the base of the mountain.
20 και λαβων τον μοσχον, τον οποιον ειχον καμει, κατεκαυσεν εν πυρι, και συντριψας εωσου ελεπτυνθη, εσπειρεν επι το υδωρ και εποτισε τους υιους Ισραηλ.	20 And seizing the calf, which they had made, he burnt it and crushed it, even to dust, which he scattered into water. And he gave from it to the sons of Israel to drink.
21 Και ειπεν ο Μωυσης προς τον Ααρων, Τι εκαμεν εις σε ο λαος ουτος, ωστε επεφερες επ' αυτους αμαρτιαν μεγαλην;	21 And he said to Aaron, “What has this people done to you, so that you would bring upon them the greatest sin?”
22 Και ειπεν ο Ααρων, Ας μη εξαπτηται ο θυμος του κυριου μου? συ γνωριζεις τον λαον, οτι εγκειται εις την κακιαν?	22 And he answered him: “Let not my lord be indignant. For you know this people, that they are prone to evil.
23 διοτι ειπον προς εμε, Καμε εις ημας θεους, οιτινες να προπορευωνται ημων? διοτι ουτος ο Μωυσης, ο ανθρωπος οστις εξηγαγεν ημας εκ γης Αιγυπτου, δεν εξευρομεν τι απεγεινεν αυτος?	23 They said to me: ‘Make gods for us, who may go before us. For this Moses, who led us away from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has befallen him.’
24 και ειπα προς αυτους, Οστις εχει χρυσιον, ας αφαιρεσωσιν αυτο? και εδωκαν εις εμε? τοτε ερριψα αυτο εις το πυρ, και εξηλθεν ο μοσχος ουτος.	24 And I said to them, ‘Which of you has gold?’ And they took it and gave it to me. And I threw it into the fire, and this calf came out.”
25 Και ιδων ο Μωυσης τον λαον οτι ητο αχαλινωτος, διοτι ο Ααρων ειχε αφησει αυτους αχαλινωτους προς καταισχυνην, μεταξυ των εχθρων αυτων,	25 Therefore, Moses, seeing that the people were naked (for Aaron had stripped them because of the disgrace of their sordidness, and he had set them naked among their enemies),
26 εσταθη ο Μωυσης παρα την πυλην του στρατοπεδου και ειπεν, Οστις ειναι του Κυριου, ας ελθη προς εμε. Και συνηχθησαν προς αυτον παντες οι υιοι του Λευι.	26 and standing at the gate of the camp, said: “If anyone is for the Lord, let him join with me.” And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
27 Και ειπε προς αυτους, Ουτω λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος του Ισραηλ? Ας βαλη εκαστος την ρομφαιαν αυτου επι τον μηρον αυτου? και διελθετε και εξελθετε απο πυλης εις πυλην δια του στρατοπεδου, και ας θανατωση εκαστος τον αδελφον αυτου και εκαστος τον φιλον αυτου και εκαστος τον πλησιον αυτου.	27 And he said to them: “Thus says the Lord God of Israel: Let a man place his sword at his thigh. Go forth, and then return, from gate to gate, through the midst of the camp, and let each one kill his brother, and friend, and neighbor.”
28 Και εκαμον οι υιοι του Λευι κατα τον λογον του Μωυσεως? και επεσαν εκ του λαου εκεινην την ημεραν περιπου τρεις χιλιαδες ανδρες.	28 And the sons of Levi did according to the words of Moses, and there fell on that day about twenty-three thousand men.
29 διοτι ειπεν ο Μωυσης, Καθιερωσατε εαυτους σημερον εις τον Κυριον, εκαστος επι τον υιον αυτου και εκαστος επι τον αδελφον αυτου, δια να δοθη εις εσας ευλογια σημερον.	29 And Moses said: “On this day, you have consecrated your hands to the Lord, each one in his son and in his brother, so that a blessing may be given to you.”
30 Και την επαυριον ειπεν ο Μωυσης προς τον λαον, Σεις ημαρτησατε αμαρτιαν μεγαλην? και τωρα θελω αναβη προς τον Κυριον? ισως καμω εξιλεωσιν δια την αμαρτιαν σας.	30 Then, when the next day arrived, Moses spoke to the people: “You have sinned the greatest sin. I will ascend to the Lord. Perhaps, in some way, I might be able to entreat him for your wickedness.”
31 Και επεστρεψεν ο Μωυσης προς τον Κυριον και ειπε, Δεομαι? ουτος ο λαος ημαρτησεν αμαρτιαν μεγαλην και εκαμον εις εαυτους θεους χρυσους?	31 And returning to the Lord, he said: “I beg you, this people has sinned the greatest sin, and they have made for themselves gods of gold. Either release them from this offense,
32 πλην τωρα, εαν συγχωρησης την αμαρτιαν αυτων? ει δε μη, εξαλειψον με, δεομαι, εκ της βιβλου σου, την οποιαν εγραψας.	32 or, if you do not, then delete me from the book that you have written.”
33 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, Οστις ημαρτησεν εναντιον εμου, τουτον θελω εξαλειψει εκ της βιβλου μου?	33 And the Lord answered him: “Whoever has sinned against me, him I will delete from my book.
34 οθεν τωρα υπαγε, οδηγησον τον λαον εις τον τοπον περι του οποιου σε ειπα? ιδου, ο αγγελος μου θελει προπορευεσθαι εμπροσθεν σου' αλλ' ομως εν τη ημερα της ανταποδωσεως μου θελω ανταποδωσει την αμαρτιαν αυτων επ' αυτους.	34 But as for you, go and lead this people where I have told you. My angel will go before you. Then, on the day of retribution, I will also visit this sin of theirs.”
35 Και επαταξε Κυριος τον λαον, δια την κατασκευην του μοσχου τον οποιον κατεσκευασεν ο Ααρων.	35 Therefore, the Lord struck the people for the guilt of the calf, which Aaron had made.
