आयत: 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]

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.

(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.

आयत: 20

قَالَ فَعَلۡتُهَآ إِذٗا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ

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

आयत: 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.

आयत: 22

وَتِلۡكَ نِعۡمَةٞ تَمُنُّهَا عَلَيَّ أَنۡ عَبَّدتَّ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ

आयत: 39

وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلۡ أَنتُم مُّجۡتَمِعُونَ

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

आयत: 40

لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ ٱلسَّحَرَةَ إِن كَانُواْ هُمُ ٱلۡغَٰلِبِينَ

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

आयत: 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?"

आयत: 42

قَالَ نَعَمۡ وَإِنَّكُمۡ إِذٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلۡمُقَرَّبِينَ

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

आयत: 43

قَالَ لَهُم مُّوسَىٰٓ أَلۡقُواْ مَآ أَنتُم مُّلۡقُونَ

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

आयत: 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."

आयत: 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."

आयत: 52

۞ وَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنۡ أَسۡرِ بِعِبَادِيٓ إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ

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

आयत: 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.

आयत: 54

إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَشِرۡذِمَةٞ قَلِيلُونَ

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

आयत: 55

وَإِنَّهُمۡ لَنَا لَغَآئِظُونَ

(55) And indeed, they are enraging us,

आयत: 56

وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَٰذِرُونَ

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

आयत: 57

فَأَخۡرَجۡنَٰهُم مِّن جَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ

(57) So We removed them from gardens and springs

आयत: 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.

आयत: 59

كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ

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

आयत: 60

فَأَتۡبَعُوهُم مُّشۡرِقِينَ

(60) So they pursued them at sunrise.

आयत: 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!"

आयत: 62

قَالَ كَلَّآۖ إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهۡدِينِ

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

आयत: 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.

आयत: 64

وَأَزۡلَفۡنَا ثَمَّ ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ

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

आयत: 65

وَأَنجَيۡنَا مُوسَىٰ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ

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

आयत: 66

ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ

(66) Then We drowned the others.

आयत: 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.

आयत: 68

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

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

आयत: 69

وَٱتۡلُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ نَبَأَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ

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

आयत: 70

إِذۡ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوۡمِهِۦ مَا تَعۡبُدُونَ

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

आयत: 71

قَالُواْ نَعۡبُدُ أَصۡنَامٗا فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَٰكِفِينَ

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

आयत: 72

قَالَ هَلۡ يَسۡمَعُونَكُمۡ إِذۡ تَدۡعُونَ

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

आयत: 73

أَوۡ يَنفَعُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَضُرُّونَ

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

आयत: 74

قَالُواْ بَلۡ وَجَدۡنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفۡعَلُونَ

(74) They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus."

आयत: 75

قَالَ أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡبُدُونَ

(75) He said, "Then do you see what you have been worshipping,

आयत: 76

أَنتُمۡ وَءَابَآؤُكُمُ ٱلۡأَقۡدَمُونَ

(76) You and your ancient forefathers?

आयत: 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.

आयत: 78

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَنِي فَهُوَ يَهۡدِينِ

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