وَإِذْ
قَالَ
مُوسَى
لِقَوْمِهِ
يَاقَوْمِ
لِمَ
تُؤْذُونَنِي
وَقَد
تَّعْلَمُونَ
أَنِّي
رَسُولُ
اللَّهِ
إِلَيْكُمْ
فَلَمَّا
زَاغُوا
أَزَاغَ
اللَّهُ
قُلُوبَهُمْ
وَاللَّهُ
لَا
يَهْدِي
الْقَوْمَ
الْفَاسِقِينَ

And remember, Moses said to his people: "O my people! why do ye vex and insult me, though ye know that I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you?" Then when they went wrong, Allah let their hearts go wrong. For Allah guides not those who are rebellious transgressors.
— Abdullah Yusufali
When Moses said to his people, ‘O my people! Why do you torment me, when you certainly know that I am Allah’s apostle to you?’ So when they swerved [from the right path], Allah made their hearts swerve, and Allah does not guide the transgressing lot.
