وَاِذۡ قُلۡتُمۡ يٰمُوۡسٰى لَنۡ نَّصۡبِرَ عَلٰى طَعَامٍ وَّاحِدٍ فَادۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُخۡرِجۡ لَنَا مِمَّا تُنۡۢبِتُ الۡاَرۡضُ مِنۡۢ بَقۡلِهَا وَ قِثَّـآٮِٕهَا وَفُوۡمِهَا وَعَدَسِهَا وَ بَصَلِهَا‌ؕ قَالَ اَتَسۡتَبۡدِلُوۡنَ الَّذِىۡ هُوَ اَدۡنٰى بِالَّذِىۡ هُوَ خَيۡرٌ‌ؕ اِهۡبِطُوۡا مِصۡرًا فَاِنَّ لَـکُمۡ مَّا سَاَلۡتُمۡ‌ؕ وَضُرِبَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمُ الذِّلَّةُ وَالۡمَسۡکَنَةُ وَبَآءُوۡ بِغَضَبٍ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ‌ؕ ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمۡ كَانُوۡا يَكۡفُرُوۡنَ بِاٰيٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَيَقۡتُلُوۡنَ النَّبِيّٖنَ بِغَيۡرِ الۡحَـقِّ‌ؕ ذٰلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوا وَّڪَانُوۡا يَعۡتَدُوۡنَ

And when you said, “Listen Moses! we can’t be content with just one food.
So pray for us to your God to bring us out of earth what it grows (**)
Its herbs and its cucumbers and its kernels
And its lentils and its onions.”
He said, “Do you seek to change and get what is inferior with that is superior.
Go to any town. Surely then for you is what you asked for.”
And humiliation and destitution were inflicted on them.
And they bought from the wrath of Allah.
This was because they had been rejecting the signs of Allah
And they had been persecuting Prophets without justification.
This was because they had disobeyed and had been transgressing.
