2 . These are revelations of the Scripture that maketh plain .
3 . It may be that thou tormentest thyself ( O Muhammad ) because they believe not .
4 . If We will , We can send down on them from the sky a portent so that their necks would remain bowed before it .
5 . Never cometh there unto them a fresh reminder from the Beneficent One , but they turn away from it .
6 . Now they have denied ( the Truth ) ; but there will come unto them tidings of that whereat they used to scoff .
7 . Have they not seen the earth , how much of every fruitful kind We make to grow therein?
8 . Lo! herein is indeed a portent ; yet most of them are not believers .
9 . And lo! thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
10 . And when thy Lord called Moses , saying : Go unto the wrongdoing folk ,
11 . The folk of Pharaoh . Will they not ward off ( evil ) ?
12 . He said : My Lord! Lo! I fear that they will deny me ,
13 . And I shall be embarrassed , and my tongue will not speak plainly , therefor send for Aaron ( to help me ) .
14 . And they have a crime against me , so I fear that they will kill me .
15 . He said : Nay , verily . So go ye twain with Our tokens . Lo! We shall be with you , Hearing .
16 . And come together unto Pharaoh and say : Lo! we bear a message of the Lord of the Worlds ,
17 . ( Saying ) : Let the Children of Israel go with Us .
18 . ( Pharaoh ) said ( unto Moses ) : Did we not rear thee among us as a child? And thou didst dwell many years of thy life among us ,
19 . And thou didst that thy deed which thou didst , and thou wast one of the ingrates ,
20 . He said : I did it then , when I was of those who are astray .
21 . Then I fled from you when I feared you , and my Lord vouchsafed me a command and appointed me ( of the number ) of those sent ( by Him ) .
22 . And this is the past favor wherewith thou reproachest me : that thou hast enslaved the Children of Israel .
23 . Pharaoh said : And what is the Lord of the Worlds?
24 . ( Moses ) said : Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them , if ye had but sure belief .
25 . ( Pharaoh ) said unto those around him : Hear ye not?
26 . He said : Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers .
27 . ( Pharaoh ) said : Lo! your messenger who hath been sent unto you is indeed a madman!
28 . He said : Lord of the East and the West and all that is between them , if ye did but understand .
29 . ( Pharaoh ) said : If thou choosest a god other than me , I assuredly shall place thee among the prisoners .
30 . He said : Even though I show thee something plain?
31 . ( Pharaoh ) said : Produce it then , if thou art of the truthful!
32 . Then he Sung down his staff and it became a serpent manifest ,
33 . And he drew forth his hand and lo! it was white to the beholders .
34 . ( Pharaoh ) said unto the chiefs about him : Lo , this is verily a knowing wizard ,
35 . Who would drive you out of your land by his magic . Now what counsel ye?
36 . They said : Put him off , ( him ) and his brother , and send them into the cities summoners
37 . Who shall bring unto thee every knowing wizard .
38 . So the wizards were gathered together at a set time on a day appointed .
39 . And it was said unto the people : Are ye ( also ) gathering?
40 . ( They said ) : Aye , so that we may follow the wizards if they are the winners .
41 . And when the wizards came they said unto Pharaoh : Will there surely be a reward for us if we are the winners?
42 . He said : Aye , and ye will then surely be of those brought near ( to me ) .
43 . Moses said unto them : Throw what ye are going to throw!
44 . Then they threw down their cords and their staves and said : By Pharaoh ' s might , lo! we verily are the winners .
45 . Then Moses threw his staff and lo! it swallowed that which they did falsely show .
46 . And the wizards were flung prostrate ,
47 . Crying : We believe in the Lord of the Worlds ,
48 . The Lord of Moses and Aaron .
49 . ( Pharaoh ) said , Ye put your faith in him before I give you leave . Lo! he doubtless is your chief who taught you magic! But verily ye shall come to know . Verily I will cut off your hands and your feet alternately , and verily I will crucify you everyone .
50 . They said : It is no hurt , for lo! unto our Lord we shall return .
51 . Lo! we ardently hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we are the first of the believers .
52 . And We inspired Moses , saying : Take away My slaves by night , for ye will be pursued .
53 . Then Pharaoh sent into the cities summoners ,
54 . ( Who said ) : Lo! these indeed are but a little troop ,
55 . And lo! they are offenders against us .
56 . And lo! we are a ready host .
57 . Thus did We take them away from gardens and water springs ,
58 . And treasures and a fair estate .
59 . Thus ( were those things taken from them ) and We caused the Children of Israel to inherit them .
60 . And they overtook them at sunrise .
61 . And when the two hosts saw each other , those with Moses said : Lo! we are indeed caught .
62 . He said : Nay , verily! for lo! my Lord is with me . He will guide me .
63 . Then We inspired Moses , saying : Smite the sea with thy staff . And it parted , and each part was as a mountain vast .
64 . Then brought We near the others to that place .
65 . And We saved Moses and those with him , every one ;
66 . We drowned the others .
67 . Lo! herein is indeed a portent , yet most of them are not believers .
68 . And lo , thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
69 . Recite unto them the story of Abraham :
70 . When he said unto his father and his folk : What worship ye?
71 . They said : We worship idols , and are ever devoted unto them .
72 . He said : Do they hear you when ye cry?
73 . Or do they benefit or harm you?
74 . They said : Nay , but we found our fathers acting on this use .
75 . He said : See now that which ye worship ,
76 . Ye and your forefathers!
77 . Lo! they are ( all ) an enemy unto me , save the Lord of the Worlds .
78 . Who created me , and He doth guide me ,
79 . And Who feedeth me and watereth me .
80 . And when I sicken , then He healeth me ,
81 . And Who causeth me to die , the giveth me life ( again ) ,
82 . And Who , I ardently hope , will forgive me my sin on the Day of Judgement .
83 . My Lord! Vouchsafe me wisdom and unite me to the righteous .
84 . And give unto me a good report in later generations .
85 . And place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Delight ,
86 . And forgive my father . Lo! he is of those who err .
87 . And abase me not on the day when they are raised ,
88 . The day when wealth and sons avail not ( any man )
89 . Save him who bringeth unto Allah a whole heart .
90 . And the Garden will be brought nigh for those who ward off ( evil ) .
91 . And hell will appear plainly to the erring .
92 . And it will be said unto them : Where is ( all ) that ye used to worship
93 . Instead of Allah? Can they help you or help themselves?
94 . Then they will be hurled therein , they and the seducers
95 . And the hosts of Iblis , together .
96 . And they will say , when they are quarrelling therein :
97 . By Allah , of a truth we were in error manifest
98 . When we made you equal with the Lord of the Worlds .
99 . It was but the guilty who misled us .
100 . Now we have no intercessors
101 . Nor any loving friend .
102 . Oh , that we had another turn ( on earth ) , that we might be of the believers!
103 . Lo! herein is indeed a portent , yet most of them are not believers!
104 . And lo , thy Lord! He is Indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
105 . Noah ' s folk denied the messengers ( of Allah ) ,
106 . When their brother Noah said unto them : Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
107 . Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you ,
108 . So keep your duty to Allah , and obey me .
109 . And I ask of you no wage therefor ; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds .
110 . So keep your duty to Allah , and obey me .
111 . They said : Shall we put faith in thee , when the lowest ( of the people ) follow thee?
112 . He said : And what knowledge have I of what they may have been doing ( in the past ) ?
113 . Lo! their reckoning is my Lord ' s concern , if ye but knew ;
114 . And I am not ( here ) to repulse believers .
115 . I am only a plain warner .
116 . They said : If thou cease not , O Noah , thou wilt surely be among those stoned ( to death ) .
117 . He said : My Lord! Lo! my own folk deny me .
118 . Therefor judge Thou between us , a ( conclusive ) judgment , and save me and those believers who are with me .
119 . And We saved him and those with him in the laden ship .
120 . Then afterward We drowned the others .
121 . Lo! herein is indeed a portent , yet most of them are not believers .
122 . And lo , thy Lord , He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
123 . ( The tribe of ) Aad denied the messengers ( of Allah ) ,
124 . When their brother Hud said unto them : Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
125 . Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you ,
126 . So keep your duty to Allah and obey me .
127 . And I ask of you no wage therefor ; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds .
128 . Build ye on every high place a monument for vain delight?
129 . And seek ye out strongholds , that haply ye may last for ever?
130 . And if ye seize by force , seize ye as tyrants?
131 . Rather keep your duty to Allah , and obey me .
132 . Keep your duty toward Him who hath aided you with ( the good things ) that ye know ,
133 . Hath aided you with cattle and sons .
134 . And gardens and watersprings .
135 . Lo! I fear for you the retribution of an awful day .
136 . They said : It is all one to us whether thou preachest or art not of those who preach ;
137 . This is but a fable of the men of old ,
138 . And we shall not be doomed .
139 . And they denied him ; therefor We destroyed them . Lo! herein is indeed a portent , yet most of them are not believers .
140 . And lo! thy Lord , He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
141 . ( The tribe of ) Thamud denied the messengers ( of Allah )
142 . When their brother Salih said unto them : Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
143 . Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you ,
144 . So keep your duty to Allah and obey me .
145 . And I ask of you no wage therefor ; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds .
146 . Will ye be left secure in that which is here before us ,
147 . In gardens and watersprings
148 . And tilled fields and heavy sheathed palm trees ,
149 . Though ye hew out dwellings in the mountain , being skilful?
150 . Therefor keep your duty to Allah and obey me ,
151 . And obey not the command of the prodigal ,
152 . Who spread corruption in the earth , and reform not .
153 . They said : Thou art but one of the bewitched ;
154 . Thou art but a mortal like us . So bring some token if thou art of the truthful .
155 . He said : ( Behold ) this she camel . She hath the right to drink ( at the well ) , and ye have the right to drink , ( each ) on an appointed day .
156 . And touch her not with ill lest there come on you the retribution of an awful day .
157 . But they hamstrung her , and then were penitent .
158 . So the retribution came on them . Lo! herein is indeed a portent , yet most of them are not believers .
159 . And lo! thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
160 . The folk of Lot denied the messengers ( of Allah ) ,
161 . When their brother Lot said unto them : Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
162 . Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you ,
163 . So keep your duty to Allah and obey me .
164 . And I ask of you no wage therefor ; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds .
165 . What! Of all creatures do ye come unto the males ,
166 . And leave the wives your Lord created for you? Nay , but ye are froward folk .
167 . They said : If thou cease not , O Lot , thou wilt soon be of the outcast .
168 . He said : I am in truth of those who hate your conduct .
169 . My Lord! Save me and my household from what they do .
170 . So We saved him and his household , every one ,
171 . Save an old woman among those who stayed behind .
172 . Then afterward We destroyed the others .
173 . And We rained on them a rain . And dreadful is the rain of those who have been warned .
174 . Lo! herein is indeed a portent , yet most of them are not believers .
175 . And lo! thy Lord , He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
176 . The dwellers in the wood ( of Midian ) denied the messengers ( of Allah ) ,
177 . When Shueyb said unto them : Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
178 . Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you ,
179 . So keep your duty to Allah and obey me .
180 . And I ask of you no wage for it ; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds .
181 . Give full measure , and be not of those who give less ( than the due ) .
182 . And weigh with the true balance .
183 . Wring not mankind in their goods , and do not evil , making mischief , in the earth .
184 . And keep your duty unto Him Who created you and the generations of the men of old .
185 . They said : Thou art but one of the bewitched ;
186 . Thou art but a mortal like us , and lo! we deem thee of the liars .
187 . Then make fragments of the heaven fall upon us , if thou art of the truthful .
188 . He said : My Lord is best aware of what ye do .
189 . But they denied him , so there came on them the retribution of the day of gloom . Lo! it was the retribution of an awful day .
190 . Lo! herein is indeed a portent ; yet most of them are not believers .
191 . And lo! thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
192 . And lo! it is a revelation of the Lord of the Worlds ,
193 . Which the True Spirit hath brought down
194 . Upon thy heart , that thou mayest be ( one ) of the warners ,
195 . In plain Arabic speech .
196 . And lo , it is in the Scriptures of the men of old .
197 . Is it not a token for them that the doctors of the Children of Israel know it?
198 . And if We had revealed it unto one of any other nation than the Arabs ,
199 . And he had read it unto them , they would not have believed in it .
200 . Thus do We make it traverse the hearts of the guilty .
201 . They will not believe in it till they behold the painful doom ,
202 . So that it will come upon them suddenly , when they perceive not .
203 . Then they will say : Are we to be reprieved?
204 . Would they ( now ) hasten on Our doom?
205 . Hast thou then seen , We content them for ( long ) years ,
206 . And then cometh that which they were promised ,
207 . ( How ) that wherewith they were contented naught availeth them?
208 . And We destroyed no township but it had its warners
209 . For reminder , for We never were oppressors .
210 . The devils did not bring it down .
211 . It is not meet for them , nor is it in their power ,
212 . Lo! verily they are banished from the hearing .
213 . Therefor invoke not with Allah another god , lest thou be one of the doomed .
214 . And warn thy tribe of near kindred ,
215 . And lower thy wing ( in kindness ) unto those believers who follow thee .
216 . And if they ( thy kinsfolk ) disobey thee , say : Lo! I am innocent of what they do .
217 . And put thy trust in the Mighty , the Merciful .
218 . Who seeth thee when thou standest up ( to pray )
219 . And ( seeth ) thine abasement among those who fall prostrate ( in worship ) .
220 . Lo! He , only He , is the Hearer , the Knower .
221 . Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend?
222 . They descend on every sinful , false one .
223 . They listen eagerly , but most of them are liars .
224 . As for poets , the erring follow them .
225 . Hast thou not seen how they stray in every valley ,
226 . And how they say that which they do not?
227 . Save those who believe and do good works , and remember Allah much , and vindicate themselves after they have been wronged . Those who do wrong will come to know by what a ( great ) reverse they will be overturned!
