S: (Musa) said: O Haroun! what prevented you, when you saw them going astray,

020.093 Y: "From following me? Didst thou then disobey my order?"

P: That thou followedst me not? Hast thou then disobeyed my order?

020.094 Y: (Aaron) replied: "O son of my mother! Seize (me) not by my beard nor by (the hair of) my head! Truly I feared lest thou shouldst say, 'Thou has caused a division among the children of Israel, and thou didst not respect my word!'"

P: He said: O son of my mother! Clutch not my beard nor my head! I feared lest thou shouldst say: Thou hast caused division among the Children of Israel, and hast not waited for my word.

S: He said: O son of my mother! seize me not by my beard nor by my head; surely I was afraid lest you should say: You have caused a division among the children of Israel and not waited for my word.
