Ulangan 9:21

9:21 As for your sinful thing ¹  that you had made, the calf, I took it, melted it down, ²  ground it up until it was as fine as dust, and tossed the dust into the stream that flows down the mountain.

Ulangan 16:15

16:15 You are to celebrate the festival seven days before the Lord your God in the place he ³  chooses, for he ⁴  will bless you in all your productivity and in whatever you do; ⁵  so you will indeed rejoice!
