Section 3

25.
Walaqad arsalna noohan ila qawmihi innee lakum natheerun mubeenUn

25.
We sent Noah to his People

(With a mission): "I have come

To you with a Clear Warning:

26.
An la taAAbudoo illa Allaha innee akhafu AAalaykum AAathaba yawmin aleemIn

26. \"That ye serve none but God:


Verily I do fear for you

The Penalty of a Grievous Day."

27. Faqala almalao allatheena kafaroo min qawmihi ma naraka illa basharan mithlana wama naraka ittabaAAaka illa allatheena hum arathiluna badiya aLrra/yi wama nara lakum AAalayna min fadlin bal na"th"unnukum kathibeenA

27.
But the Chiefs of the Unbelievers

Among his People said:

"We see (in) thee nothing

But a man like ourselves:

Nor do we see that any

Follow thee but the meanest

Among us, in judgment immature:

Nor do we see in you (all)

Any merit above us:

In fact we think ye are liars!"

28. Qala ya qawmi araaytum in kuntu AAala bayyinatin min rabbee waatanee rahmatan min AAindihi faAAummiyat AAalaykum anulzimukumooha waantum laha karihoonA

28.
He said: "O my People!

See ye if (it be that)

I have a Clear Sign

From my Lord, and that He

Hath sent Mercy unto me

From His own Presence, but

That the Mercy hath been

Obscured from your sight?

Shall we compel you

To accept it when ye

Are averse to it?

29.
Waya qawmi la as-alukum AAalayhi malan in ajriya illa AAala Allahi wama ana bitaridi allatheena amanoo innahum mulaqoo rabbihim walakinnee arakum qawman tajhaloonA

29.
\"And O my People!

I ask you for no wealth

In return: my reward

Is from none but God:


But I will not drive away

(In contempt) those who believe:

For verily they are

To meet their Lord, and ye

I see are the ignorant ones!

30.
Waya qawmi man yansurunee mina Allahi in taradtuhum afala tathakkaroonA

30.
\"And O my People!

Who would help me against God

If I drove them away?

Will ye not then take heed?

31.
Wala aqoolu lakum AAindee khaza-inu Allahi wala aAAlamu alghayba wala aqoolu innee malakun wala aqoolu lillatheena tazdaree aAAyunukum lan yu/tiyahumu Allahu khayran Allahu aAAlamu bima fee anfusihim innee ithan lamina aL"thth"alimeenA

31.
\"I tell you not that

With me are the Treasures

Of God, nor do I know

What is hidden,

Nor claim I to be

An angel. Nor yet

Do I say, of those whom

Your eyes do despise

That God will not grant them

(All) that is good:


God knoweth best

What is in their souls:

I should, if I did,

Indeed be a wrong-doer."

32. Qaloo ya noohu qad jadaltana faaktharta jidalana fa/tina bima taAAiduna in kunta mina aLssadiqeenA

32.
They said: "O Noah!

Thou hast disputed with us,

And (much) hast thou prolonged

The dispute with us: now

Bring upon us what thou

Threatenest us with, if thou

Speakest the truth!?
"

33. Qala innama ya/teekum bihi Allahu in shaa wama antum bimuAAjizeenA

33.
He said: "Truly, God

Will bring it on you

If He wills,--and then,

Ye will not be able

To frustrate it!

34.
Wala yanfaAAukum nushee in aradtu an ansaha lakum in kana Allahu yureedu an yughwiyakum huwa rabbukum wa-ilayhi turjaAAoonA

34.
\"Of no profit will be

My counsel to you,

Much as I desire

To give you (good) counsel,

If it be that God

Willeth to leave you astray:


He is your Lord!

And to Him will ye return!"

35. Am yaqooloona iftarahu qul ini iftaraytuhu faAAalayya ijramee waana baree-on mimma tujrimoonA

35. Or do they say,

"He has forged it "? Say:


"If I had forged it,

On me were my sin!

And I am free

Of the sins of which

Ye are guilty!
