We lifted the mount of Tur over them and took the covenant from them that they will obey Our commandments. On another occasion We commanded them to enter the gates prostrating in humility. Yet on another occasion We commanded them not to transgress in the matter of the Sabbath and took a solemn commitment from them.
- Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
We raised the Mount over them 'as a warning' for 'breaking' their covenant and said, 'Enter the gate 'of Jerusalem' with humility.' We also warned them, 'Do not break the Sabbath,' and took from them a firm covenant.
- Mustafa Khattab
And We caused the Mount to tower above them at (the taking of) their covenant: and We bade them: Enter the gate, prostrate! and we bade them: Transgress not the Sabbath! and We took from them a firm covenant.
- Marmaduke Pickthall
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. 658
