قالوا لا ضَيرَ ۖ إِنّا إِلىٰ رَبِّنا مُنقَلِبونَ
They said, "No harm. Indeed, to our Lord we will return.
إِنّا نَطمَعُ أَن يَغفِرَ لَنا رَبُّنا خَطايانا أَن كُنّا أَوَّلَ المُؤمِنينَ
Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers."
وَأَوحَينا إِلىٰ موسىٰ أَن أَسرِ بِعِبادي إِنَّكُم مُتَّبَعونَ
And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued."
فَأَرسَلَ فِرعَونُ فِي المَدائِنِ حاشِرينَ
Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers
إِنَّ هـٰؤُلاءِ لَشِرذِمَةٌ قَليلونَ
[And said], "Indeed, those are but a small band,
وَإِنّا لَجَميعٌ حاذِرونَ
And indeed, we are a cautious society... "
فَأَخرَجناهُم مِن جَنّاتٍ وَعُيونٍ
So We removed them from gardens and springs
وَكُنوزٍ وَمَقامٍ كَريمٍ
And treasures and honorable station -
كَذٰلِكَ وَأَورَثناها بَني إِسرائيلَ
Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel.
فَأَتبَعوهُم مُشرِقينَ
So they pursued them at sunrise.
