Al-A'raf 7:155 واختار موسى قومه سبعين رجلا لميقاتنا فلما اخذتهم الرجفة قال رب لو شيت اهلكتهم من قبل واياي اتهلكنا بما فعل السفهاء منا ان هي الا فتنتك تضل بها من تشاء وتهدي من تشاء انت ولينا فاغفر لنا وارحمنا وانت خير الغافرين ١٥٥
وَٱخۡتَارَ
مُوسَىٰ
قَوۡمَهُۥ
سَبۡعِينَ
رَجُلٗا
لِّمِيقَٰتِنَاۖ
فَلَمَّآ
أَخَذَتۡهُمُ
ٱلرَّجۡفَةُ
قَالَ
رَبِّ
لَوۡ
شِئۡتَ
أَهۡلَكۡتَهُم
مِّن
قَبۡلُ
وَإِيَّٰيَۖ
أَتُهۡلِكُنَا
بِمَا
فَعَلَ
ٱلسُّفَهَآءُ
مِنَّآۖ
إِنۡ
هِيَ
إِلَّا
فِتۡنَتُكَ
تُضِلُّ
بِهَا
مَن
تَشَآءُ
وَتَهۡدِي
مَن
تَشَآءُۖ
أَنتَ
وَلِيُّنَا
فَٱغۡفِرۡ
لَنَا
وَٱرۡحَمۡنَاۖ
وَأَنتَ
خَيۡرُ
ٱلۡغَٰفِرِينَ

This is only a trial from You- through it, You cause whoever You will to stray and guide whoever You will- and You are our Protector, so forgive us and have mercy on us. You are the best of those who forgive.
