Exodus 32:15-24, 30-34

32:15 And Moses returned from the mountain, carrying the two tablets of the testimony in his hand, written on both sides

32:16 and accomplished by the work of God. Også, the writing of God was engraved on the tablets.

32:17 Then Joshua, hearing the tumult of the people shouting, said to Moses: “The outcry of battle is heard in the camp.”

32:18 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.”

32:19 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.

32:20 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.

32:21 And he said to Aaron, “What has this people done to you, so that you would bring upon them the greatest sin?”

32:22 And he answered him: “Let not my lord be indignant. For you know this people, that they are prone to evil.

32:23 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.’

32:24 Og jeg sa til dem, ‘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.”

32:30 Deretter, 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.”

32:31 And returning to the Lord, han sa: “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,

32:32 eller, if you do not, then delete me from the book that you have written.”

32:33 And the Lord answered him: “Whoever has sinned against me, him I will delete from my book.

32:34 Men når det gjelder deg, go and lead this people where I have told you. My angel will go before you. Deretter, on the day of retribution, I will also visit this sin of theirs.”

Evangelium

Matthew 13: 31- 35

13:31 Han foreslo en annen lignelse for dem, ordtak: «Himlenes rike er som et sennepsfrø, som en mann tok og sådde i åkeren sin.

13:32 Det er, faktisk, minst av alle frø, men når den har vokst, den er større enn alle plantene, og det blir et tre, så mye at luftens fugler kommer og bor i grenene.»

13:33 Han fortalte en annen lignelse til dem: «Himlenes rike er som surdeig, som en kvinne tok og gjemte i tre mål fint hvetemel, til det var helt surt.»

13:34 Alt dette talte Jesus i lignelser til folkemengden. Og han talte ikke til dem uten lignelser,

13:35 for å oppfylle det som ble talt gjennom profeten, ordtak: «Jeg vil åpne munnen min i lignelser. Jeg vil forkynne det som har vært skjult siden verdens grunnvoll ble lagt.»
