And Aaron indeed had told them beforehand: O my people! Ye are but being seduced therewith, for lo! your Lord is the Beneficent, so follow me and obey my order. 90 'We will not cease,' they said, 'to cleave to it, until Moses returns to us.') 91 Musa said: O Harun! what prevented thee, when thou sawest them going astray. 92 from following me? Why did you disobey my command?" 93 Harun said: O my mother's son! hold me not by my beard nor by my head, verily I feared that thou wouldst say, thou hast caused a division among the Children of Israel and hast not guarded my word. 94 Musa said: what was thy object, O Samiri? 95 He answered: "I have gained insight into something which they were unable to see: and so I took hold of a handful of the Apostle's teachings and cast it away: for thus has my mind prompted me [to act]." 96 Said Moosa, “Therefore go away, for in this life your punishment is that you exclaim ‘Do not touch!’* And indeed for you is a time appointed, which you cannot break; and look at your deity, in front of which you remained squatting the whole day; we swear we will surely burn it and, smashing it into bits, discharge it into the river.” (* He was cursed with a disease.) 97 Your only deity is God, there is no deity but Him. His knowledge encompasses all things." 98 (O Muhammad), thus do We recount to you the events of the past, and We have bestowed upon you from Ourself an admonition. 99 If any do turn away therefrom, verily they will bear a burden on the Day of judgment; 100 And will live for ever under it. How evil the burden they will carry on the Day of Doom! 101 The Day when the Horn shall be blown. On that Day, We shall assemble all the sinners with blued eyes, 102 Murmuring among themselves: Ye have tarried but ten (days). 103 We are Best Aware of what they utter when their best in conduct say: Ye have tarried but a day. 104
