Aaron had already told them, "O my people! You are only being tested by this. Your Lord is the All Merciful, so follow me and obey my command." 90 They said: We shall by no means cease to be its votaries till Moses return unto us. 91 Moses said to Aaron, "What prevented you, when you saw that they had gone astray, 92 That thou followedst me not!
