143 And when Musa came at Our appointed time and his Lord spoke to him, he said: My Lord! show me (Thyself), so that I may look upon Thee. He said: You cannot (bear to) see Me but look at the mountain, if it remains firm in its place, then will you see Me; but when his Lord manifested His glory to the mountain He made it crumble and Musa fell down in a swoon; then when he recovered, he said: Glory be to Thee, I turn to Thee, and I am the first of the believers.
Na Musa akamwambia nduguye Haarun: Shika mahala pangu kwa watu wangu na utengeneze wala usifuate njia ya waharibifu. 143 Na alipo kuja Musa kwenye miadi yetu, na Mola wake Mlezi akamsemeza, alisema: Mola wangu Mlezi! Nionyeshe nikutazame. Mwenyezi Mungu akasema: Hutoniona. Lakini utazame huo mlima. Ukibaki pahala pake basi utaniona. Basi alipo jionyesha Mola Mlezi wake kwa mlima, aliufanya uvurugike, na Musa akaanguka chini amezimia.
