18 Moses answered: "It is not a shout of victory; it is not a cry of defeat. It is the sound of singing that I hear."

Exodus 32:18 In-Context

16 God himself had made the tablets, and God himself had written the commands on the tablets.
17 When Joshua heard the sound of the people shouting, he said to Moses, "It sounds like war down in the camp."
18 Moses answered: "It is not a shout of victory; it is not a cry of defeat. It is the sound of singing that I hear."
19 When Moses came close to the camp, he saw the gold calf and the dancing, and he became very angry. He threw down the stone tablets that he was carrying and broke them at the bottom of the mountain.
20 Then he took the calf that the people had made and melted it in the fire. He ground it into powder. Then he threw the powder into the water and forced the Israelites to drink it.
