Surat Al Baqarah (64-65)

{ ثُمَّ تَوَلَّيْتُم مِّن بَعْدِ ذَلِكَ فَلَوْلاَ فَضْلُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُهُ لَكُنتُم مِّنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ } [البقرة:  64]

64- After that confirmed promise and great covenant, you have broken your covenant and turned your backs to it. Despite this revocation and treason, Allah bestowed mercy upon you again and was generous to send you the Prophets and Messengers to remind you of faith and obedience. Had it been for that, you would have been in great loss and everlasting regret.

{ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ الَّذِينَ اعْتَدَواْ مِنكُمْ فِي السَّبْتِ فَقُلْنَا لَهُمْ كُونُواْ قِرَدَةً خَاسِئِينَ } [البقرة:  65]

65- O Jews, remember what happened to the village which did not keep the promise of Allah when they asked for a sacred day off during which they did not work. Allah fixed Saturday for them and put them into trial by giving them plenty of whales on that day, but they could not resist their ambitions and desires and feared to break the promises which they have given to Allah. So, they made a plot but they only plotted against themselves. They set up nets before Saturday, and on Sunday they gathered their nets. When they did so and broke their promises with Allah, Allah punished them by transforming them to the images of monkeys out of humiliation.
