who know that they will meet their Lord and that it is to Him they will return

Children of Israel, remember how I blessed you and favoured you over other people

We appointed forty nights for Moses [on Mount Sinai] and then, while he was away, you took to worshipping the calf- a terrible wrong
Translation 1260
Even then We forgave you, so that you might be thankful
Translation 1260
Remember when We gave Moses the Scripture, and the means to distinguish [right and wrong], so that you might be guided
Translation 1260
