surah Nisa aya 154 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿وَرَفَعْنَا فَوْقَهُمُ الطُّورَ بِمِيثَاقِهِمْ وَقُلْنَا لَهُمُ ادْخُلُوا الْبَابَ سُجَّدًا وَقُلْنَا لَهُمْ لَا تَعْدُوا فِي السَّبْتِ وَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُم مِّيثَاقًا غَلِيظًا﴾
[ النساء: 154]
4:154 And We raised over them the mount for [refusal of] their covenant; and We said to them, "Enter the gate bowing humbly", and We said to them, "Do not transgress on the sabbath", and We took from them a solemn covenant.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishI frightened them by raising the mountain over them in order to take a firm promise from them to practice what it contained and we said to them, ‘Enter the gate of Jerusalem in prostration by bowing your heads’.
They entered dragging their buttocks.
I also said to them, ‘Do not disobey Me by fishing on the Saturday’; but they rebelled and went against My command.
I took a firm promise from them for this, but they broke their promise.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And for their covenant, We raised over them the Mount and (on the other occasion) We said: "Enter the gate prostrating (or bowing) with humility;" and We commanded them: "Transgress not (by doing worldly works on) the Sabbath (Saturday)." And We took from them a firm covenant.

And for their covenant we raised over them (the towering height) of Mount (Sinai); and (on another occasion) we said: "Enter the gate with humility"; and (once again) we commanded them: "Transgress not in the matter of the sabbath." And we took from them a solemn covenant.

ورفعنا فوقهم الطور بميثاقهم وقلنا لهم ادخلوا الباب سجدا وقلنا لهم لا تعدوا في السبت وأخذنا منهم ميثاقا غليظا

And We stabilized the Mount above them when it shook with such fits of awe for the profound reverence dutiful to Allah as We made a covenant with them, and We said to them: “Make entry into this town AL-Quds (Jerusalem) but humble yourselves and bow your knees to Me as you go through the gate. And We said to them: Do not break the Sabbath We set apart for rest and worship, and We entered with them into a paramount covenant and they, with a strong oath, expressed their obligation and solemn promise to bind themselves by it
