Surah Al-Baqara
And [recall] when We took the covenant from the Children of Israel, [enjoining upon them], "Do not worship except Allah; and to parents do good and to relatives, orphans, and the needy. And speak to people good [words] and establish prayer and give zakah." Then you turned away, except a few of you, and you were refusing.﴿83﴾

Simplified Tafsir
واذكروا يا بني إسرائيل حين أخَذْنا عليكم عهدًا مؤكدًا: بأن تعبدوا الله وحده لا شريك له، وأن تحسنوا للوالدين، وللأقربين، وللأولاد الذين مات آباؤهم وهم دون بلوغ الحلم، وللمساكين، وأن تقولوا للناس أطيب الكلام، مع أداء الصلاة وإيتاء الزكاة، ثم أَعْرَضْتم ونقضتم العهد -إلا قليلا منكم ثبت عليه- وأنتم مستمرون في إعراضكم.
