إِذ قالَ لَهُم أَخوهُم صالِحٌ أَلا تَتَّقونَ

When their brother Salih said to them, "Will you not fear Allah?

إِنّي لَكُم رَسولٌ أَمينٌ

Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.

فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطيعونِ

So fear Allah and obey me.

وَما أَسأَلُكُم عَلَيهِ مِن أَجرٍ ۖ إِن أَجرِيَ إِلّا عَلىٰ رَبِّ العالَمينَ

And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.

أَتُترَكونَ في ما هاهُنا آمِنينَ

Will you be left in what is here, secure [from death],

وَزُروعٍ وَنَخلٍ طَلعُها هَضيمٌ

And fields of crops and palm trees with softened fruit?

وَتَنحِتونَ مِنَ الجِبالِ بُيوتًا فارِهينَ

And you carve out of the mountains, homes, with skill.

فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطيعونِ

So fear Allah and obey me.

وَلا تُطيعوا أَمرَ المُسرِفينَ

And do not obey the order of the transgressors,

الَّذينَ يُفسِدونَ فِي الأَرضِ وَلا يُصلِحونَ

Who cause corruption in the land and do not amend."
