32:11 But Moses sought the favor 1 of the Lord his God and said, “O Lord, why does your anger burn against your people, whom you have brought out from the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? 32:12 Why 2 should the Egyptians say, 3 ‘For evil 4 he led them out to kill them in the mountains and to destroy 5 them from the face of the earth’? Turn from your burning anger, and relent 6 of this evil against your people. 32:13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel your servants, to whom you swore by yourself and told them, ‘I will multiply your descendants 7 like the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken about 8 I will give to your descendants, 9 and they will inherit it forever.’” 32:14 Then the Lord relented over the evil that he had said he would do to his people.
106:23 He threatened 10 to destroy them,
but 11 Moses, his chosen one, interceded with him 12
and turned back his destructive anger. 13
