And undoubtedly Haroon had told them before it that, “O my people – you have needlessly fallen into trial because of this; and indeed your Lord is the Most Gracious, therefore follow me and obey my command.” 90 They said "So long as Moses does not come back we are not going to give it up, and we will remain devoted to it." 91 Then Moses asked Aaron, "What made you not follow me when you saw them in error? 92 From coming after me? Did you not disobey my command?" (And Moses pulled him by the hair). 93 Aaron replied, "Son of my mother, do not seize me by my beard or head.
