Exodus 32:28 in Context — Exodus 32

26 Pôs-se Moisés à porta do acampamento, e disse: Quem é do SENHOR? junte-se comigo. E juntaram-se com ele todos os filhos de Levi.

27 E ele lhes disse: Assim disse o SENHOR, o Deus de Israel: Ponde cada um sua espada sobre sua coxa: passai e voltai de porta em porta pelo acampamento, e matai cada um a seu irmão, e a seu amigo, e a seu parente.

28 E os filhos de Levi o fizeram conforme o dito de Moisés: e caíram do povo naquele dia como três mil homens.

29 Então Moisés disse: Hoje vos consagrastes ao SENHOR, porque cada um se consagrou em seu filho, e em seu irmão, para que dê ele hoje bênção sobre vós.

30 E aconteceu que no dia seguinte disse Moisés ao povo: Vós cometestes um grande pecado: mas eu subirei agora ao SENHOR; talvez lhe consiga apaziguar o furor acerca de vosso pecado.
