أَو نُرِيَنَّكَ الَّذي وَعَدناهُم فَإِنّا عَلَيهِم مُقتَدِرونَ

Or whether [or not] We show you that which We have promised them, indeed, We are Perfect in Ability.

فَاستَمسِك بِالَّذي أوحِيَ إِلَيكَ ۖ إِنَّكَ عَلىٰ صِراطٍ مُستَقيمٍ

So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path.

وَإِنَّهُ لَذِكرٌ لَكَ وَلِقَومِكَ ۖ وَسَوفَ تُسأَلونَ

And indeed, it is a remembrance for you and your people, and you [all] are going to be questioned.

وَاسأَل مَن أَرسَلنا مِن قَبلِكَ مِن رُسُلِنا أَجَعَلنا مِن دونِ الرَّحمـٰنِ آلِهَةً يُعبَدونَ

And ask those We sent before you of Our messengers; have We made besides the Most Merciful deities to be worshipped?

وَلَقَد أَرسَلنا موسىٰ بِآياتِنا إِلىٰ فِرعَونَ وَمَلَئِهِ فَقالَ إِنّي رَسولُ رَبِّ العالَمينَ

And certainly did We send Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his establishment, and he said, "Indeed, I am the messenger of the Lord of the worlds."

وَما نُريهِم مِن آيَةٍ إِلّا هِيَ أَكبَرُ مِن أُختِها ۖ وَأَخَذناهُم بِالعَذابِ لَعَلَّهُم يَرجِعونَ

And We showed them not a sign except that it was greater than its sister, and We seized them with affliction that perhaps they might return [to faith].

وَقالوا يا أَيُّهَ السّاحِرُ ادعُ لَنا رَبَّكَ بِما عَهِدَ عِندَكَ إِنَّنا لَمُهتَدونَ

And they said [to Moses], "O magician, invoke for us your Lord by what He has promised you. Indeed, we will be guided."

فَلَمّا كَشَفنا عَنهُمُ العَذابَ إِذا هُم يَنكُثونَ

But when We removed from them the affliction, at once they broke their word.

وَنادىٰ فِرعَونُ في قَومِهِ قالَ يا قَومِ أَلَيسَ لي مُلكُ مِصرَ وَهـٰذِهِ الأَنهارُ تَجري مِن تَحتي ۖ أَفَلا تُبصِرونَ

And Pharaoh called out among his people; he said, "O my people, does not the kingdom of Egypt belong to me, and these rivers flowing beneath me; then do you not see?

أَم أَنا خَيرٌ مِن هـٰذَا الَّذي هُوَ مَهينٌ وَلا يَكادُ يُبينُ

Or am I [not] better than this one who is insignificant and hardly makes himself clear?
