واذ اخذنا ميثاقكم ورفعنا فوقكم الطور خذوا ما اتيناكم بقوة واسمعوا قالوا سمعنا وعصينا واشربوا في قلوبهم العجل بكفرهم قل بئسما يامركم به ايمانكم ان كنتم مؤمنين

And remember We took Your Covenant and We raised Above you (the towering height) Of Mount (Sinai): (Saying): "Hold firmly To what We have given you, And hearken (to the Law)" They said: "We hear, And we disobey" And they had to drink Into their hearts (Of the taint) of the Calf Because of their Faithlessness. Say: "Vile indeed Are the behests of your Faith If ye have any faith!"
