وَإِذْ
أَخَذْنَا
مِيثَـٰقَكُمْ
وَرَفَعْنَا
فَوْقَكُمُ
ٱلطُّورَ
خُذُوا۟
مَآ
ءَاتَيْنَـٰكُم
بِقُوَّةٍۢ
وَٱسْمَعُوا۟ ۖ
قَالُوا۟
سَمِعْنَا
وَعَصَيْنَا
وَأُشْرِبُوا۟
فِى
قُلُوبِهِمُ
ٱلْعِجْلَ
بِكُفْرِهِمْ ۚ
قُلْ
بِئْسَمَا
يَأْمُرُكُم
بِهِۦٓ
إِيمَـٰنُكُمْ
إِن
كُنتُم
مُّؤْمِنِينَ
٩٣
Remember when We took your pledge, making the mountain tower above you, and said, ‘Hold on firmly to what We have given you, and listen to [what We say].’ They said, ‘We hear and we disobey,’ and through their disbelief they were made to drink [the love of] the calf deep into their hearts. Say, ‘How evil are the things your belief commands you to do, if you really are believers!’
M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
