I suggest,
{2:53} And [recall] when We gave Moses the Book and the Discernment that perhaps you may find the way.

Quote:

{2:54} And [recall] when Moses said to his people, "O my people, indeed you have wronged yourselves by your taking of the calf [for worship]. So repent to your Creator and kill yourselves. That is best for [all of] you in the sight of your Creator." Then He accepted your repentance; indeed, He is the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful.

I suggest,
{2:54} And [mention] when Moses said to his people, "O people, verily, you wronged yourselves by taking for yourselves the calf [for worship]. So, repent to your Initiator and kill yourselves. That is better for you in the sight of your Initiator." Then He accepted your repentance; verily, He is the Oft-Accepting of repentance, the Merciful.
