هَيهاتَ هَيهاتَ لِما توعَدونَ

How far, how far, is that which you are promised.

إِن هِيَ إِلّا حَياتُنَا الدُّنيا نَموتُ وَنَحيا وَما نَحنُ بِمَبعوثينَ

Life is not but our worldly life - we die and live, but we will not be resurrected.

إِن هُوَ إِلّا رَجُلٌ افتَرىٰ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا وَما نَحنُ لَهُ بِمُؤمِنينَ

He is not but a man who has invented a lie about Allah, and we will not believe him."

قالَ رَبِّ انصُرني بِما كَذَّبونِ

He said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."

قالَ عَمّا قَليلٍ لَيُصبِحُنَّ نادِمينَ

[Allah] said, "After a little, they will surely become regretful."

ثُمَّ أَنشَأنا مِن بَعدِهِم قُرونًا آخَرينَ

Then We produced after them other generations.

ما تَسبِقُ مِن أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَها وَما يَستَأخِرونَ

No nation will precede its time [of termination], nor will they remain [thereafter].

ثُمَّ أَرسَلنا رُسُلَنا تَترىٰ ۖ كُلَّ ما جاءَ أُمَّةً رَسولُها كَذَّبوهُ ۚ فَأَتبَعنا بَعضَهُم بَعضًا وَجَعَلناهُم أَحاديثَ ۚ فَبُعدًا لِقَومٍ لا يُؤمِنونَ

Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation its messenger, they denied him, so We made them follow one another [to destruction], and We made them narrations. So away with a people who do not believe.

ثُمَّ أَرسَلنا موسىٰ وَأَخاهُ هارونَ بِآياتِنا وَسُلطانٍ مُبينٍ

Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our signs and a clear authority

إِلىٰ فِرعَونَ وَمَلَئِهِ فَاستَكبَروا وَكانوا قَومًا عالينَ

To Pharaoh and his establishment, but they were arrogant and were a haughty people.
