And when Moses returned to his people, angry and grieved, he said, "How wretched is that by which you have replaced me after [my departure]. Were you impatient over the matter of your Lord?" And he threw down the tablets *_{Exodus 32:19}*, *_{Deuteronomy 9:17}* and seized his brother by [the hair of] his head, pulling him toward him. [Aaron] said, "O son of my mother, indeed the people oppressed me and were about to kill me, so do not let the enemies rejoice over me and do not place me among the wrongdoing people." *_{Exodus 32:22}* 7:151 [Moses] said, "My Lord, forgive me and my brother *_{Deuteronomy 9:20}* and admit us into Your mercy, for You are the most merciful of the merciful."
