فَلَمَّاۤ اَنْ اَرَادَ اَنْ یَّبْطِشَ بِالَّذِیْ هُوَ عَدُوٌّ لَّهُمَا ۙ قَالَ یٰمُوْسٰۤی اَتُرِیْدُ اَنْ تَقْتُلَنِیْ كَمَا قَتَلْتَ نَفْسًا بِالْاَمْسِ ۖۗ اِنْ تُرِیْدُ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ تَكُوْنَ جَبَّارًا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَمَا تُرِیْدُ اَنْ تَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُصْلِحِیْنَ ۟

Saheeh International

And when he wanted to strike the one who was an enemy to both of them, he said, "O Moses, do you intend to kill me as you killed someone yesterday? You only want to be a tyrant in the land and do not want to be of the amenders."

Al-Mukhtasar fi Tafsir

So when Moses (peace be upon him) intended to strike the Copt who was his and the caller’s enemy, the Copt said: “Do you intend to kill me just like you killed another yesterday? You only wish to become a tyrant on Earth by killing people and oppressing them; you have no desire to be one of those who reconcile between those who dispute!”
