Certainly Aaron had said to them even before (the return of Moses): "My people, you were fallen into error because of the calf. Surely your Lord is Most Compassionate; so follow me and obey my command." 90 They replied: 'We will not stop; we will cling to it until Moses returns to us.' 91 He (Moses) said: O Aaron! What held thee back when thou didst see them gone astray, 92 "From following me? Didst thou then disobey my order?" 93 Aaron answered: "Son of my mother! Do not seize me with my beard, nor by (the hair of) my head.

'It shall be thine all this life to cry "Untouchable!" And thereafter a tryst awaits thee thou canst not fail to keep Behold thy god, to whom all the day thou wast cleaving!

Their eyes will turn blue with terror 102 They shall whisper among themselves: "You stayed on the earth barely ten days." 103 We are most knowing of what they say when the best of them in manner will say, "You remained not but one day." 104
