54. And when Moses said unto his people: O my people! Ye have wronged yourselves by your
choosing of the calf (for worship) so turn in penitence to your Creator, and kill
(the guilty) yourselves. That will be best for you with your Creator and He will
relent toward you. Lo! He is the Relenting, the Merciful.
Yusuf Ali
54. And remember Moses said to his people: "O my people! Ye have indeed wronged
yourselves by your worship of the calf so turn (in repentance) to your Maker and
slay yourselves (the wrong-doers); that will be better for you in the sight of
your Maker." Then He turned toward you (in forgiveness); for He is Oft-returning
Most Merciful.
M.Pickthall
55. And when ye said: O Moses! We will not believe in thee till we see Allah
plainly; and even while ye gazed the lightning seized you.
Yusuf Ali
55. And remember ye said: "O Moses! we shall never believe in thee until we
see Allah manifestly" but ye were dazed with thunder and lightning even as
ye looked on.
M.Pickthall

M.Pickthall
57. And We caused the white cloud to overshadow you and sent down on you the
manna and the quails, (saying): Eat of the good things wherewith We have
provided you We wronged them not, but they did wrong themselves.
Yusuf Ali
57. And We gave You the shade of clouds and sent down to you manna and quails
saying: "Eat of the good things We have provided for you"; (but they rebelled);
to Us they did no harm but they harmed their own souls.
M.Pickthall
58. And when We said: Go into this township and eat freely of that which
is therein, and enter the gate prostrate, and say: "Repentance." We will
forgive you your sins and increase (reward) for the right-doers.
Yusuf Ali
58. And remember We said: "Enter this town and eat of the plenty therein
as ye wish; but enter the gate with humility in posture and in words and
We shall forgive you your faults and increase (the portion of) those
who do good."
M.Pickthall
59. But those who did wrong changed the word which had been told them
for another saying, and We sent down upon the evil-doers wrath from Heaven
for their evil doing.
Yusuf Ali
59. But the transgressors changed the word from that which had been given
them; so We sent on the transgressors a plague from heaven for that they
infringed (our command) repeatedly.
M.Pickthall
60. And when Moses asked for water for his people, We said: Smite with
thy staff the rock. And there gushed out therefrom twelve springs (so that)
each tribe knew their drinking place. Eat and drink of that which Allah
hath provided, and do not act corruptly, making mischief in the earth.
Yusuf Ali
60. And remember Moses prayed for water for his people; We said: "Strike
the rock with thy staff." Then gushed forth therefrom twelve springs.
Each group knew its own place for water. So eat and drink of the
sustenance provided by Allah and do no evil nor mischief on the
(face of the) earth.
