Exodus 32:12

of this evil against your people.

O, Lord
God,
do not destroy your people, your valued property
that you have powerfully redeemed,
whom you brought out of Egypt by your strength.
9:27 Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; ignore the stubbornness, wickedness, and sin of these people.
9:28 Otherwise the people of the land
from which you brought us will say, “The
Lord was unable to bring them to the land he promised them, and because of his hatred for them he has brought them out to kill them in the desert.”

and say, “Our power is great,
and the Lord has not done all this!”’

from the earth. What will you do to protect your great reputation?”
