وَأَن لَّا تَعْلُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّىٓ ءَاتِيكُم بِسُلْطَـٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ ۝١٩

44:19 And saying: Be not proud against Allah. Lo! I bring you a clear warrant.

وَإِنِّى عُذْتُ بِرَبِّى وَرَبِّكُمْ أَن تَرْجُمُونِ ۝٢٠

44:20 And lo! I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord lest ye stone me to death.

وَإِن لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوا۟ لِى فَٱعْتَزِلُونِ ۝٢١

44:21 And if ye put no faith in me, then let me go.

فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوْمٌ مُّجْرِمُونَ ۝٢٢

44:22 And he cried unto his Lord, (saying): These are guilty folk.

فَأَسْرِ بِعِبَادِى لَيْلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ ۝٢٣

44:23 Then (his Lord commanded): Take away My slaves by night. Lo! ye will be followed,

وَٱتْرُكِ ٱلْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا ۖ إِنَّهُمْ جُندٌ مُّغْرَقُونَ ۝٢٤

44:24 And leave the sea behind at rest, for lo! they are a drowned host.

كَمْ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّـٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ ۝٢٥

44:25 How many were the gardens and the watersprings that they left behind,

وَزُرُوعٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ ۝٢٦

44:26 And the cornlands and the goodly sites

وَنَعْمَةٍ كَانُوا۟ فِيهَا فَـٰكِهِينَ ۝٢٧

44:27 And pleasant things wherein they took delight!

كَذَٰلِكَ ۖ وَأَوْرَثْنَـٰهَا قَوْمًا ءَاخَرِينَ ۝٢٨

44:28 Even so (it was), and We made it an inheritance for other folk;

فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِينَ ۝٢٩

44:29 And the heaven and the earth wept not for them, nor were they reprieved.

وَلَقَدْ نَجَّيْنَا بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ مِنَ ٱلْعَذَابِ ٱلْمُهِينِ ۝٣٠

44:30 And We delivered the Children of Israel from the shameful doom;

مِن فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِيًا مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ ۝٣١

44:31 (We delivered them) from Pharaoh. Lo! he was a tyrant of the wanton ones.

وَلَقَدِ ٱخْتَرْنَـٰهُمْ عَلَىٰ عِلْمٍ عَلَى ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ ۝٣٢

44:32 And We chose them, purposely, above (all) creatures.

وَءَاتَيْنَـٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَـٰٓؤٌا۟ مُّبِينٌ ۝٣٣

44:33 And We gave them portents wherein was a clear trial.

إِنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَيَقُولُونَ ۝٣٤

44:34 Lo! these, forsooth, are saying:

إِنْ هِىَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا ٱلْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنشَرِينَ ۝٣٥

44:35 There is naught but our first death, and we shall not be raised again.

فَأْتُوا۟ بِـَٔابَآئِنَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ ۝٣٦

44:36 Bring back our fathers, if ye speak the truth!

أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ أَهْلَكْنَـٰهُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ مُجْرِمِينَ ۝٣٧

44:37 Are they better, or the folk of Tubb'a and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty.

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَـٰعِبِينَ ۝٣٨

44:38 And We created not the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, in play.

مَا خَلَقْنَـٰهُمَآ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ۝٣٩

44:39 We created them not save with truth; but most of them know not.
