Exodus 33:4-6

Good News Translation

⁴ When the people heard this, they began to mourn and did not wear jewelry any more. ⁵ For the Lord had commanded Moses to tell them, “You are a stubborn people. If I were to go with you even for a moment, I would completely destroy you. Now take off your jewelry, and I will decide what to do with you.” ⁶ So after they left Mount Sinai, the people of Israel no longer wore jewelry.
