The Holy Quran Chapter 2 The Heifer (al-Baqarah) ( Today Verse 47-55)

In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.

47 . O Children of Israel! Remember My favor which I bestowed upon you, and that I favored you over all nations.

48 . And beware of a Day when no soul will avail another in the least, nor will any intercession be accepted on its behalf, nor will any ransom be taken from it, nor will they be helped.

49 . And recall that We delivered you from the people of Pharaoh. They inflicted on you terrible persecution, killing your sons and sparing your women. Therein was a tremendous trial from your Lord.

50 . And recall that We parted the sea for you, so We saved you, and We drowned the people of Pharaoh as you looked on.

51 . And recall that We appointed for Moses forty nights. Then you took to worshiping the calf after him, and you turned wicked.

52 . Then We pardoned you after that, so that you might be grateful.

53 . And recall that We gave Moses the Scripture and the Criterion, so that you may be guided.

54 . And recall that Moses said to his people, “O my people, you have done wrong to yourselves by worshiping the calf. So repent to your Maker, and kill your egos. That would be better for you with your Maker.” So He turned to you in repentance. He is the Accepter of Repentance, the Merciful.

55 . And recall that you said, “O Moses, we will not believe in you unless we see God plainly.” Thereupon the thunderbolt struck you, as you looked on.
