And saith, "Shall I show you
One who will nurse
And rear the (child)?

To thy mother, that her eye
Might be cooled and she
Should not grieve.
Then thou didst slay
A man, but We saved thee
From trouble, and We tried
Thee in various ways.
Then didst thou tarry
A number of years
With the people of Midian.
Then didst thou come hither
As ordained, O Moses!

For Myself (for service)"

Perchance he may take
Warning or fear (God)."
45. Qala rabbana innana nakhafu an yafruta AAalayna aw an yatgha
45. They (Moses and Aaron) said:

And say, "Verily we are
Apostles sent by thy Lord:
Send forth, therefore, the Children

Who follow guidance!

Is the condition
Of previous generations?"

Of that is with my Lord,
Duly recorded: my Lord
Never errs, nor forgets,--
53. Allathee jaAAala lakumu al-arda mahdan wasalaka lakum feeha subulan waanzala mina aLssama-i maan faakhrajna bihi azwajan min nabatin shatta
53. \"He Who has made for you
The earth like a carpet
Spread out; has enabled you
To go about therein by roads
(And channels); and has sent
Down water from the sky."
With it have We produced
Divers pairs of plants
Each separate front the others.
54. Kuloo waIrAAaw anAAamakum inna fee thalika laayatin li-olee aLnnuha
54. Eat (for yourselves) and pasture
Your cattle: verily, in this
Are Signs for men
Endued with understanding.
