So Moses returned to his people, angry and disappointed. He said, “O my people, did your Lord not promise you a good promise? Was the time too long for you? Or did you want wrath from your Lord to descend upon you, so you broke your promise to me?”
موسى خشمگين و پُر اندوه نزد قومش بازگشت و گفت: اى قوم من، آيا پروردگارتان شما را وعده‌هاى نيكو نداده بود؟ آيا درنگ من به درازا كشيد يا خواستيد كه خشم پروردگارتان به شما فرود آيد كه وعده مرا خلاف كرديد؟
