## Deuteronomy 9:16 in Context (Verses 13–19 KJV)
 
 [13 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/9/13) Furthermore the LORD spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it *is* a stiffnecked people:
 
 [14 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/9/14) Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/9/15) So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned with fire: and the two tables of the covenant *were* in my two hands.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/9/16) And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the LORD your God, *and* had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the LORD had commanded you.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/9/17) And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/9/18) And I fell down before the LORD, as at the first, forty days and forty nights: I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, because of all your sins which ye sinned, in doing wickedly in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/9/19) For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also.
