30. Walaqad najjayna banee isra-eela mina alAAathabi almuheenI
30. We did deliver aforetime
The Children of Israel
From humiliating Punishment,
31. Min firAAawna innahu kana AAaliyan mina almusrifeenA
31. Inflicted by Pharaoh, for he
Was arrogant (even) among
Inordinate transgressors.
32. Walaqadi ikhtarnahum AAala AAilmin AAala alAAalameenA
32. And We chose them aforetime
Above the nations, knowingly,
33. Waataynahum mina al-ayati ma feehi balaon mubeenUn
33. And granted them Signs
In which there was
A manifest trial.
34. Inna haola-i layaqooloonA
34. As to these (Quraish),
They say forsooth:
35. In hiya illa mawtatuna al-oola wama nahnu bimunshareenA
35. \"There is nothing beyond
Our first death,
And we shall not
Be raised again.
36. Fa/too bi-aba-ina in kuntum sadiqeenA
36. \"Then bring (back)
Our forefathers, if what
Ye say is true!"
37. Ahum khayrun am qawmu tubbaAAin waAllatheena min qablihim ahlaknahum innahum kanoo mujrimeenA
37. What! are they better
Than the people of Tubba'
And those who were
Before them? We destroyed
Them because they were
Guilty of sin.
38. Wama khalaqna aLssamawati waAl-arda wama baynahuma laAAibeenA
38. We created not
The heavens, the earth,
And all between them,
Merely in (idle) sport:
39. Ma khalaqnahuma illa biAlhaqqi walakinna aktharahum la yaAAlamoonA
39. We created them not
Except for just ends:
But most of them
Do not understand.
40. Inna yawma alfasli meeqatuhum ajmaAAeenA
40. Verily the Day of
Sorting Out is the time
Appointed for all of them,--
41. Yawma la yughnee mawlan AAan mawlan shay-an wala hum yunsaroonA
41. The Day when no protector
Can avail his client
In aught, and no help
Can they receive,
42. Illa man rahima Allahu innahu huwa alAAazeezu aLrraheemU
42. Except such as receive
God's Mercy: for He is
Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.
