أَتَدعونَ بَعلًا وَتَذَرونَ أَحسَنَ الخالِقينَ

Do you call upon Ba'l and leave the best of creators -

اللَّهَ رَبَّكُم وَرَبَّ آبائِكُمُ الأَوَّلينَ

Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers?"

فَكَذَّبوهُ فَإِنَّهُم لَمُحضَرونَ

And they denied him, so indeed, they will be brought [for punishment],

إِلّا عِبادَ اللَّهِ المُخلَصينَ

Except the chosen servants of Allah.

وَتَرَكنا عَلَيهِ فِي الآخِرينَ

And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations:

إِنّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجزِي المُحسِنينَ

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

إِنَّهُ مِن عِبادِنَا المُؤمِنينَ

Indeed, he was of Our believing servants.

وَإِنَّ لوطًا لَمِنَ المُرسَلينَ

And indeed, Lot was among the messengers.

إِذ نَجَّيناهُ وَأَهلَهُ أَجمَعينَ

[So mention] when We saved him and his family, all,

إِلّا عَجوزًا فِي الغابِرينَ

Except his wife among those who remained [with the evildoers].
