فَقالَ إِنّي سَقيمٌ

And said, "Indeed, I am [about to be] ill."

فَتَوَلَّوا عَنهُ مُدبِرينَ

So they turned away from him, departing.

فَراغَ إِلىٰ آلِهَتِهِم فَقالَ أَلا تَأكُلونَ

Then he turned to their gods and said, "Do you not eat?

ما لَكُم لا تَنطِقونَ

What is [wrong] with you that you do not speak?"

فَراغَ عَلَيهِم ضَربًا بِاليَمينِ

And he turned upon them a blow with [his] right hand.

قالَ أَتَعبُدونَ ما تَنحِتونَ

He said, "Do you worship that which you [yourselves] carve,

وَاللَّهُ خَلَقَكُم وَما تَعمَلونَ

While Allah created you and that which you do?"

قالُوا ابنوا لَهُ بُنيانًا فَأَلقوهُ فِي الجَحيمِ

They said, "Construct for him a furnace and throw him into the burning fire."

فَأَرادوا بِهِ كَيدًا فَجَعَلناهُمُ الأَسفَلينَ

And they intended for him a plan, but We made them the most debased.

وَقالَ إِنّي ذاهِبٌ إِلىٰ رَبّي سَيَهدينِ

And [then] he said, "Indeed, I will go to [where I am ordered by] my Lord; He will guide me.
