Aya 160
160
وَقَطَّعناهُمُ اثنَتَي عَشرَةَ أَسباطًا أُمَمًا ۚ وَأَوحَينا إِلىٰ موسىٰ إِذِ استَسقاهُ قَومُهُ أَنِ اضرِب بِعَصاكَ الحَجَرَ ۖ فَانبَجَسَت مِنهُ اثنَتا عَشرَةَ عَينًا ۖ قَد عَلِمَ كُلُّ أُناسٍ مَشرَبَهُم ۚ وَظَلَّلنا عَلَيهِمُ الغَمامَ وَأَنزَلنا عَلَيهِمُ المَنَّ وَالسَّلوىٰ ۖ كُلوا مِن طَيِّباتِ ما رَزَقناكُم ۚ وَما ظَلَمونا وَلٰكِن كانوا أَنفُسَهُم يَظلِمونَ

(Irfan-ul-Quran)

And We divided them into twelve tribes as separate communities. And when his people asked him for water, We sent (this) Revelation to Musa (Moses): ‘Strike that rock with your staff.’ So twelve springs gushed out from it and every tribe found its drinking place. And We stretched over them clouds for shade and sent down to them manna and quails (and said to them:) ‘Eat of the pure things that We have provided for you.’ (But) they have not wronged Us (by disobedience and disregard). They have rather wronged their own souls.
