| 49. And remember the time when WE delivered you from Pharaoh's                   people who afflicted you with grievous torment, slaying your                   sons and sparing your women; and in that was a great trial for                   you from your Lord. 50. And remember also the time when WE divided the sea for you                   and saved you and drowned Pharaoh's people while you looked                   on.
 51. And when WE made Moses a promise of forty nights, then you                   took the calf for worship in his absence and you were the                   transgressors.
 52. Then WE forgave you thereafter, that you may be grateful.
 53. And remember when WE gave Moses the Book and the                   Discrimination, that you may be rightly guided.
 54. And when Moses said to his people, `O my people, you have                   indeed wronged yourselves by taking the calf for worship; turn                   ye therefore to your Maker, and kill your evil desires; that                   is best for you in the sight of your Maker.' Then HE turned                   towards you with compassion. Surely HE is Oft-Returning with                   compassion and is Merciful.
 55. And remember when you said, `O Moses, we will not believe                   thee until we see ALLAH face to face;' Then the thunderbolt                   overtook you, while you witnessed with your own eyes the                   consequences of your conduct.
 56. The We raised you up after your death that you might be                   grateful.
 57. And WE caused the clouds to be a shade over you and sent                   down on you Manna and Salwa, saying, `Eat of the good things                   We have provided for you.' And they wronged us not, but it was                   themselves that they wronged.
