(2) These are the verses of the clear Book.

آية: 3

لَعَلَّكَ بَٰخِعٞ نَّفۡسَكَ أَلَّا يَكُونُواْ مُؤۡمِنِينَ

(3) Perhaps, [O Muḥammad], you would kill yourself with grief that they will not be believers.

آية: 4

إِن نَّشَأۡ نُنَزِّلۡ عَلَيۡهِم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ ءَايَةٗ فَظَلَّتۡ أَعۡنَٰقُهُمۡ لَهَا خَٰضِعِينَ

(4) If We willed, We could send down to them from the sky a sign for which their necks would remain humbled.^[1044]

[1044]- i.e., they would be compelled to believe.

آية: 5

وَمَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن ذِكۡرٖ مِّنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ مُحۡدَثٍ إِلَّا كَانُواْ عَنۡهُ مُعۡرِضِينَ

(5) And no mention [i.e., revelation] comes to them anew from the Most Merciful except that they turn away from it.

آية: 6

فَقَدۡ كَذَّبُواْ فَسَيَأۡتِيهِمۡ أَنۢبَٰٓؤُاْ مَا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ

(6) For they have already denied, but there will come to them the news of that which they used to ridicule.

آية: 7

أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاْ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَمۡ أَنۢبَتۡنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوۡجٖ كَرِيمٍ

(7) Did they not look at the earth - how much We have produced therein from every noble kind?

آية: 8

إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ

(8) Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

وَإِذۡ نَادَىٰ رَبُّكَ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱئۡتِ ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

(10) And [mention] when your Lord called Moses, [saying], "Go to the wrongdoing people -

آية: 11

قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ أَلَا يَتَّقُونَ

(11) The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allāh?"

آية: 12

قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ

(12) He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me

آية: 14

وَلَهُمۡ عَلَيَّ ذَنۢبٞ فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقۡتُلُونِ

(14) And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me."

آية: 15

قَالَ كَلَّاۖ فَٱذۡهَبَا بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآۖ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّسۡتَمِعُونَ

(15) [Allāh] said, "No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening.

آية: 16

فَأۡتِيَا فِرۡعَوۡنَ فَقُولَآ إِنَّا رَسُولُ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

(16) Go to Pharaoh and say, 'We are the messengers^[1045] of the Lord of the worlds,

[1045]- The singular form in Arabic indicates that both were sent with a single message.

وَفَعَلۡتَ فَعۡلَتَكَ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلۡتَ وَأَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

(19) And [then] you did your deed which you did,^[1046] and you were of the ungrateful."

[1046]- i.e., striking the Copt, who died as a result.

آية: 20

قَالَ فَعَلۡتُهَآ إِذٗا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ

(20) [Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray [i.e., ignorant].

آية: 21

فَفَرَرۡتُ مِنكُمۡ لَمَّا خِفۡتُكُمۡ فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكۡمٗا وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

(21) So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me judgement [i.e., wisdom and prophethood] and appointed me [as one] of the messengers.

آية: 22

وَتِلۡكَ نِعۡمَةٞ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَيَّ أَنۡ عَبَّدتَّ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ

(38) So the magicians were assembled for the appointment of a well-known day.^[1049]

[1049]- i.e., the morning of the day of festival. See 20:58-59.

آية: 39

وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلۡ أَنتُم مُّجۡتَمِعُونَ

(39) And it was said to the people, "Will you congregate

آية: 40

لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ ٱلسَّحَرَةَ إِن كَانُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ

(40) That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant?"

آية: 41

فَلَمَّا جَآءَ ٱلسَّحَرَةُ قَالُواْ لِفِرۡعَوۡنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجۡرًا إِن كُنَّا نَحۡنُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ

(41) And when the magicians arrived, they said to Pharaoh, "Is there indeed for us a reward if we are the predominant?"

آية: 42

قَالَ نَعَمۡ وَإِنَّكُمۡ إِذٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِينَ

(42) He said, "Yes, and indeed, you will then be of those near [to me]."

آية: 43

قَالَ لَهُم مُّوسَىٰٓ أَلۡقُواْ مَآ أَنتُم مُّلۡقُونَ

(43) Moses said to them, "Throw whatever you will throw."

آية: 48

رَبِّ مُوسَىٰ وَهَٰرُونَ

(49) [Pharaoh] said, "You believed him [i.e., Moses] before I gave you permission. Indeed, he is your leader who has taught you magic, but you are going to know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will surely crucify you all."

آية: 50

قَالُواْ لَا ضَيۡرَۖ إِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا مُنقَلِبُونَ

(51) Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers."

آية: 52

(52) And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued."

آية: 53

فَأَرۡسَلَ فِرۡعَوۡنُ فِي ٱلۡمَدَآئِنِ حَٰشِرِينَ

(53) Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers^[1050]

[1050]- Recruiters of an army to prevent the emigration of the Children of Israel.

آية: 54

إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَشِرۡذِمَةٞ قَلِيلُونَ

(54) [And said], "Indeed, those are but a small band,

آية: 55

وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَنَا لَغَآئِظُونَ

(55) And indeed, they are enraging us,

آية: 56

وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَٰذِرُونَ

(56) And indeed, we are a cautious society..."

آية: 57

فَأَخۡرَجۡنَٰهُم مِّن جَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ

(57) So We removed them from gardens and springs

آية: 58

وَكُنُوزٖ وَمَقَامٖ كَرِيمٖ

(58) And treasures and honorable station^[1051] -

[1051]- Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā) caused them to abandon their wealth and property in pursuit of the Israelites.

آية: 59

كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ

(59) Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel.

فَأَتۡبَعُوهُم مُّشۡرِقِينَ

(60) So they pursued them at sunrise.

آية: 61

فَلَمَّا تَرَٰٓءَا ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِ قَالَ أَصۡحَٰبُ مُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّا لَمُدۡرَكُونَ

(61) And when the two companies saw one another, the companions of Moses said, "Indeed, we are to be overtaken!"

آية: 62

قَالَ كَلَّآۖ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهۡدِينِ

(62) [Moses] said, "No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me."

آية: 63

فَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱضۡرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلۡبَحۡرَۖ فَٱنفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرۡقٖ كَٱلطَّوۡدِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ

(63) Then We inspired to Moses, "Strike with your staff the sea," and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain.

آية: 64

وَأَزۡلَفۡنَا ثَمَّ ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ

(64) And We advanced thereto the others [i.e., the pursuers].

آية: 65

وَأَنجَيۡنَا مُوسَىٰ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ

(65) And We saved Moses and those with him, all together.

آية: 66

ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ

(66) Then We drowned the others.

آية: 67

إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ

(67) Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

آية: 68

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

(68) And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

آية: 69

وَٱتۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ نَبَأَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ

(69) And recite to them the news of Abraham,

آية: 70

إِذۡ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوۡمِهِۦ مَا تَعۡبُدُونَ

(70) When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?"

آية: 71

قَالُواْ نَعۡبُدُ أَصۡنَامٗا فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَٰكِفِينَ

(71) They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted."

آية: 72

قَالَ هَلۡ يَسۡمَعُونَكُمۡ إِذۡ تَدۡعُونَ

(72) He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate?

آية: 73

أَوۡ يَنفَعُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَضُرُّونَ

(73) Or do they benefit you, or do they harm?"

قَالُواْ بَلۡ وَجَدۡنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفۡعَلُونَ

أَنتُمۡ وَءَابَآؤُكُمُ ٱلۡأَقۡدَمُونَ

(76) You and your ancient forefathers?

آية: 77

فَإِنَّهُمۡ عَدُوّٞ لِّيٓ إِلَّا رَبَّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

(77) Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds,^[1052]

[1052]- The people worshipped idols in addition to Allāh.

آية: 78

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَنِي فَهُوَ يَهۡدِينِ

(78) Who created me, and He [it is who] guides me.
