وَلَمَّا سَكَتَ عَنْ مُوسَى الْغَضَبُ أَخَذَ الْأَلْوَاحَ وَفِي نُسْخَتِهَا هُدًى وَرَحْمَةٌ لِلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِرَبِّهِمْ يَرْهَبُونَ ﴿۱۵۴﴾ وَاخْتَارَ مُوسَى قَوْمَهُ سَبْعِينَ رَجُلًا لِمِيقَاتِنَا فَلَمَّا أَخَذَتْهُمُ الرَّجْفَةُ قَالَ رَبِّ لَوْ شِئْتَ أَهْلَكْتَهُمْ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَإِيَّايَ أَتُهْلِكُنَا بِمَا فَعَلَ السُّفَهَاءُ مِنَّا إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا فِتْنَتُكَ تُضِلُّ بِهَا مَنْ تَشَاءُ وَتَهْدِي مَنْ تَشَاءُ أَنْتَ وَلِيُّنَا فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْغَافِرِينَ ﴿۱۵۵﴾

﴾154﴿ And when the anger of Musa (peace be upon him) subsided, he took the tablets and the writings contained guidance and forgiveness for the people who fear their Lord
﴾155﴿ And Musa, peace be upon him, selected seventy people from his people for our appointed time, so when the earthquake struck them, Moses, peace be upon him, said O my Lord, if you wanted, you would have destroyed them before this and me, will you destroy us as a punishment for what the ignorant did, This is nothing but a test. You mislead whomever you wish. You are our helper. So forgive us and have mercy on us. You are the best of those who forgive
