Deuteronomy 9:18-20

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁸ And I fell down before the LORD, as at the first, forty days and forty nights; I neither ate bread nor drank water because of all your sins in which ye sinned in doing wickedly in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.

¹⁹ For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also.

²⁰ And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him, and I prayed for Aaron also the same time.
