وَأَزلَفنا ثَمَّ الآخَرينَ
And We advanced thereto the pursuers.
وَأَنجَينا موسىٰ وَمَن مَعَهُ أَجمَعينَ
And We saved Moses and those with him, all together.
ثُمَّ أَغرَقنَا الآخَرينَ
Then We drowned the others.
إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَما كانَ أَكثَرُهُم مُؤمِنينَ
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
إِذ قالَ لِأَبيهِ وَقَومِهِ ما تَعبُدونَ
When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?"
قالوا نَعبُدُ أَصنامًا فَنَظَلُّ لَها عاكِفينَ
They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted."
قالَ هَل يَسمَعونَكُم إِذ تَدعونَ
He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate?
أَو يَنفَعونَكُم أَو يَضُرّونَ
Or do they benefit you, or do they harm?"
قالوا بَل وَجَدنا آباءَنا كَذٰلِكَ يَفعَلونَ
They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus."
