1 Cuando el pueblo se dio cuenta de cuánto tiempo tardaba Moisés en bajar de la montaña, fueron juntos a ver a Aarón. Le dijeron: “¡Levántate! Haznos unos dioses que nos guíen porque este hombre, Moisés, que nos sacó de la tierra de Egipto, no sabemos qué le ha pasado”.
1 When the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.”
2 “Tráiganme los pendientes de oro que llevan sus esposas, hijos e hijas”, respondió Aarón.
2 Aaron said to them, “Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me.”
3 Así que todos se quitaron los pendientes de oro que llevaban puestos y se los llevaron a Aarón.
3 All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
4 Él tomó lo que le dieron y usando una herramienta moldeó un ídolo con forma de becerro. Gritaron: “Israel, estos son los dioses que te sacaron de la tierra de Egipto”.
4 He received what they handed him, fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a molded calf. Then they said, “These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”
5 Cuando Aarón vio esto, edificó un altar frente al becerro de oro y gritó: “¡Mañana será una fiesta para honrar al Señor!”
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, “Tomorrow shall be a feast to Yahweh.”
6 Al día siguiente, temprano, sacrificaron ofrendas quemadas y presentaron ofrendas de paz. Luego se sentaron a celebrar con comida y bebida. Luego se levantaron para bailar, y se convirtió en una orgía.
6 They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
7 Entonces el Señor le dijo a Moisés, “Baja, porque tu pueblo, el que sacaste de Egipto está actuando inmoralmente.
7 Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go, get down; for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves!
8 Han abandonado rápidamente el camino que les ordené seguir. Se han hecho un ídolo de metal con forma de becerro, inclinándose ante él en adoración y ofreciéndole sacrificios. Dicen: ‘Estos son los dioses que los sacaron de la tierra de Egipto’”.
8 They have turned away quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molded calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, ‘These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.’”
9 “Sé cómo es este pueblo”, continuó diciendo el Señor a Moisés. “¡Son tan rebeldes!
9 Yahweh said to Moses, “I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people.
10 ¡Ahora déjame! Estoy enfadado con ellos... ¡Déjame acabar con ellos! Te convertiré en una gran nación”.
10 Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation.”
11 Pero Moisés suplicó al Señor su Dios, diciendo: “¿Por qué estás enojado con el pueblo que sacaste de la tierra de Egipto con tremendo poder y gran fuerza?
11 Moses begged Yahweh his God, and said, “Yahweh, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
12 ¿Por qué permitirás que los egipcios digan ‘los sacó con el malvado propósito de matarlos en las montañas, borrándolos de la faz de la tierra’? Apártate de tu feroz ira. Por favor, arrepiéntete de esta amenaza contra tu pueblo.
12 Why should the Egyptians talk, saying, ‘He brought them out for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth’? Turn from your fierce wrath, and turn away from this evil against your people.
13 Recuerda que juraste una promesa a tus siervos Abraham, Isaac y Jacob, diciéndoles: ‘Haré que tu descendencia sea tan numerosa como las estrellas del cielo, y te daré toda la tierra que les prometí, y la poseerán para siempre’”.
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, ‘I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your offspring, and they shall inherit it forever.’”
14 El Señor se arrepintió sobre el desastre que amenazó con causar a su pueblo.
14 So Yahweh turned away from the evil which he said he would do to his people.
15 Moisés se volvió y bajó del monte, llevando las dos tablas de piedra de la Ley escritas a ambos lados.
15 Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the covenant in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides. They were written on one side and on the other.
16 Dios había hecho las tablas, y Dios mismo había grabado la escritura.
16 The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.
17 Cuando Josué escuchó todos los gritos del campamento, le dijo a Moisés: “¡Suena como una pelea en el campamento!”
17 When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, “There is the noise of war in the camp.”
18 Pero Moisés respondió: “Estos no son los gritos de la victoria o de la derrota. ¡Lo que oigo es gente que está de fiesta!”
18 He said, “It isn’t the voice of those who shout for victory. It is not the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear.”
19 Al acercarse al campamento vio el ídolo del becerro y el baile. Se enfadó tanto que tiró las tablas de piedra y las rompió allí al pie de la montaña.
19 As soon as he came near to the camp, he saw the calf and the dancing. Then Moses’ anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.
20 Tomó el becerro, lo quemó y lo molió en polvo. Luego mezcló esto con agua e hizo que los israelitas la bebieran.
20 He took the calf which they had made, and burned it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink it.
21 Entonces Moisés le preguntó a Aarón: “¿Qué te hizo esta gente para que los hicieras pecar tan mal?”
21 Moses said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?”
22 “Por favor, no te enfades conmigo, mi señor”, respondió Aarón. “Tú mismo sabes cuánto mal es capaz de hacer este pueblo.
22 Aaron said, “Don’t let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.
23 Me dijeron: ‘Haznos unos dioses que nos guíen porque este hombre, Moisés, que nos sacó de la tierra de Egipto, no sabemos qué le ha pasado’.
23 For they said to me, ‘Make us gods, which shall go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’
24 Entonces les dije: ‘El que tenga joyas de oro, que se las quite y me las dé’. Eché el oro en el horno y salió este becerro”.
24 I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them take it off.’ So they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.”
25 Moisés vio al pueblo enloqueciendo completamente porque Aarón lo había permitido, y que esto les había traído el ridículo de sus enemigos.
25 When Moses saw that the people were out of control, (for Aaron had let them lose control, causing derision among their enemies),
26 Así que fue y se paró a la entrada del campamento, y gritó: “¡Quien esté del lado del Señor, que venga y se una a mí!” Y todos los levitas se reunieron a su alrededor.
26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, “Whoever is on Yahweh’s side, come to me!” All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
27 Moisés les dijo: “Esto es lo que dice el Señor, el Dios de Israel: Cada uno amárrese su espada. Luego recorran todo el campamento de un extremo a otro y maten a sus hermanos, amigos y vecinos”.
27 He said to them, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.’”
28 Los levitas hicieron lo que Moisés les había dicho, y ese día alrededor de 3.000 hombres fueron asesinados.
28 The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses. About three thousand men fell of the people that day.
29 Moisés les dijo a los levitas: “Hoy han sido dedicados al Señor porque hanactuado contra sus hijos y hermanos. Hoy han ganado una bendición para ustedes mismos”.
29 Moses said, “Consecrate yourselves today to Yahweh, for every man was against his son and against his brother, that he may give you a blessing today.”
30 Al día siguiente Moisés habló al pueblo diciendo: “Han pecado muy mal. Pero ahora subiré al Señor. Tal vez pueda conseguir que perdone su pecado”.
30 On the next day, Moses said to the people, “You have sinned a great sin. Now I will go up to Yahweh. Perhaps I shall make atonement for your sin.”
31 Así que Moisés volvió al Señor. Y dijo: “Por favor, el pueblo ha pecado muy mal al hacerse dioses de oro para sí mismos.
31 Moses returned to Yahweh, and said, “Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
32 Pero ahora, si quieres, perdona sus pecados. Si no, bórrame del pergamino en el que guardas tus registros”.
32 Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written.”
33 Pero el Señor respondió a Moisés: “Los que pecaron contra mí son los que serán borrados de mi pergamino.
33 Yahweh said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot him out of my book.
34 Ahora ve y conduce al pueblo al lugar del que te hablé. Mi ángel irá delante de ti, pero en el momento en que decida castigarlos, los castigaré por su pecado”.
34 Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin.”
35 El Señor trajo una plaga sobre el pueblo porque hicieron que Aarón hiciera el becerro.
35 Yahweh struck the people, because of what they did with the calf, which Aaron made.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
They have speedily departed from the way in which I commanded them to walk, and have made to themselves molten images." And the Lord said unto him, "I have spoken to thee once and again, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people: let Me destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven; …
These things were for our example (in figuram nostri), to the intent that we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted; neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
"Lord," he says, "if Thou wilt forgive their sin, forgive; but if not, blot me out of Thy book which Thou hast written." With what a father's and mother's fondness, yet with what assurance said he this, as he considered at once the justice and the mercy of God; that in that He is just, He would not destroy the …

"The people," it is said, "sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play." Such were they at Sodom, such were they at the time of the deluge.
