4 And the people hearing these very bad tidings, mourned: and no man put on his ornaments according to custom. 5 And the Lord said to Moses: Say to the children of Israel: Thou are a stiffnecked people; once I shall come up in the midst of thee, and shall destroy thee. Now presently lay aside thy ornaments, that I may know what to do with thee. 6 So the children of Israel laid aside their ornaments by mount Horeb. Exodus 33:4-6, Douay-Rheims Bible. Public domain.
