Deuteronomy 9:12

Context
9:12 And he said to me, “Get up, go down at once from here because your people whom you brought out of Egypt have sinned! They have quickly turned from the way I commanded them and have made for themselves a cast metal image.” 1 

Deuteronomy 30:9

Context
30:9 The Lord your God will make the labor of your hands 2  abundantly successful and multiply your children, 3  the offspring of your cattle, and the produce of your soil. For the Lord your God will once more 4  rejoice over you to make you prosperous 5  just as he rejoiced over your ancestors,

1 tc Heb “a casting.” The MT reads מַסֵּכָה (massekhah, “a cast thing”) but some mss and Smr add עֵגֶל (’egel, “calf”), “a molten calf” or the like (Exod 32:8). Perhaps Moses here omits reference to the calf out of contempt for it.

2 tc The MT reads “hand” (singular). Most versions read the plural.

3 tn Heb “the fruit of your womb” (so NAB, NIV); NRSV “of your body.”

4 tn Heb “return and.” The Hebrew verb is used idiomatically here to indicate the repetition of the following action.

5 tn The Hebrew text includes “for good.”
