وَرَفَعْنَا
فَوْقَهُمُ
الطُّورَ
بِمِيثَاقِهِمْ
وَقُلْنَا
لَهُمُ
ادْخُلُوا
الْبَابَ
سُجَّدًا
وَقُلْنَا
لَهُمْ
لَا
تَعْدُوا
فِي
السَّبْتِ
وَأَخَذْنَا
مِنْهُم
مِّيثَاقًا
غَلِيظًا

And for their covenant we raised over them (the towering height) of Mount (Sinai); and (on another occasion) we said: "Enter the gate with humility"; and (once again) we commanded them: "Transgress not in the matter of the sabbath." And we took from them a solemn covenant.
— Abdullah Yusufali
And We raised the Mount above them for the sake of their covenant, and We said to them, ‘Enter the gate prostrating’ and We said to them, ‘Do not violate the Sabbath,’ and We took from them a solemn covenant.
