and moosa chose seventy men from his people for our promise therefore when the earthquake seized them he submitted my lord! if you had willed you could have destroyed them and me even earlier! will you destroy us for the deeds which the ignorant among us did? that is not but your testing us with it you send astray whomever you will and guide whomever you will you are our master so forgive us and have mercy on us and you are the best of the forgiving.
واختار موسى قومه سبعين رجلا لميقاتنا فلما أخذتهم الرجفة قال رب لو شئت أهلكتهم من قبل وإياي أتهلكنا بما فعل السفهاء منا إن هي إلا فتنتك تضل بها من تشاء وتهدي من تشاء أنت ولينا فاغفر لنا وارحمنا وأنت خير الغافرين
