Ayat No. 148

وَ اتَّخَذَ قَوْمُ مُوْسٰى مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ مِنْ حُلِیِّهِمْ عِجْلًا جَسَدًا لَّهٗ خُوَارٌؕ-اَلَمْ یَرَوْا اَنَّهٗ لَا یُكَلِّمُهُمْ وَ لَا یَهْدِیْهِمْ سَبِیْلًاۘ-اِتَّخَذُوْهُ وَ كَانُوْا ظٰلِمِیْنَ(۱۴۸)

Translation

And the people of Moses made, after [his departure], from their ornaments a calf - an image having a lowing sound. Did they not see that it could neither speak to them nor guide them to a way? They took it [for worship], and they were wrongdoers.

Ayat No. 149

وَ لَمَّا سُقِطَ فِیْۤ اَیْدِیْهِمْ وَ رَاَوْا اَنَّهُمْ قَدْ ضَلُّوْاۙ-قَالُوْا لَىٕنْ لَّمْ یَرْحَمْنَا رَبُّنَا وَ یَغْفِرْ لَنَا لَنَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْخٰسِرِیْنَ(۱۴۹)

Translation

And when regret overcame them and they saw that they had gone astray, they said, "If our Lord does not have mercy upon us and forgive us, we will surely be among the losers."

Ayat No. 150

وَ لَمَّا رَجَعَ مُوْسٰۤى اِلٰى قَوْمِهٖ غَضْبَانَ اَسِفًاۙ-قَالَ بِئْسَمَا خَلَفْتُمُوْنِیْ مِنْۢ بَعْدِیْۚ-اَعَجِلْتُمْ اَمْرَ رَبِّكُمْۚ-وَ اَلْقَى الْاَلْوَاحَ وَ اَخَذَ بِرَاْسِ اَخِیْهِ یَجُرُّهٗۤ اِلَیْهِؕ-قَالَ ابْنَ اُمَّ اِنَّ الْقَوْمَ اسْتَضْعَفُوْنِیْ وَ كَادُوْا یَقْتُلُوْنَنِیْ ﳲ فَلَا تُشْمِتْ بِیَ الْاَعْدَآءَ وَ لَا تَجْعَلْنِیْ مَعَ الْقَوْمِ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ(۱۵۰)

Translation

And when Moses returned to his people, angry and grieved, he said, "How wretched is that by which you have replaced me after [my departure]. Were you impatient over the matter of your Lord?" And he threw down the tablets and seized his brother by [the hair of] his head, pulling him toward him. [Aaron] said, "O son of my mother, indeed the people oppressed me and were about to kill me, so let not the enemies rejoice over me and do not place me among the wrongdoing people."

Ayat No. 151

Translation

[Moses] said, "My Lord, forgive me and my brother and admit us into Your mercy, for You are the most merciful of the merciful."
