ورفعنا فوقهم الطور بميثاقهم وقلنا لهم ادخلوا الباب سجدا وقلنا لهم لا تعدوا في السبت واخذنا منهم ميثاقا غليظا

And for their Covenant We raised over them (The towering height) Of Mount (Sinai); And (on another occasion) We said: "Enter the gate With humility"; and (once again) We commanded them: "Transgress not in the matter Of the Sabbath." And We took from them A solemn Covenant.
