أَنّىٰ لَهُمُ الذِّكرىٰ وَقَد جاءَهُم رَسولٌ مُبينٌ

How will there be for them a reminder [at that time]? And there had come to them a clear Messenger.

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوا عَنهُ وَقالوا مُعَلَّمٌ مَجنونٌ

Then they turned away from him and said, "[He was] taught [and is] a madman."

إِنّا كاشِفُو العَذابِ قَليلًا ۚ إِنَّكُم عائِدونَ

Indeed, We will remove the torment for a little. Indeed, you [disbelievers] will return [to disbelief].

يَومَ نَبطِشُ البَطشَةَ الكُبرىٰ إِنّا مُنتَقِمونَ

The Day We will strike with the greatest assault, indeed, We will take retribution.

وَلَقَد فَتَنّا قَبلَهُم قَومَ فِرعَونَ وَجاءَهُم رَسولٌ كَريمٌ

And We had already tried before them the people of Pharaoh, and there came to them a noble messenger,

وَأَن لا تَعلوا عَلَى اللَّهِ ۖ إِنّي آتيكُم بِسُلطانٍ مُبينٍ

And [saying], "Be not haughty with Allah. Indeed, I have come to you with clear authority.

وَإِنّي عُذتُ بِرَبّي وَرَبِّكُم أَن تَرجُمونِ

And indeed, I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me.

وَإِن لَم تُؤمِنوا لي فَاعتَزِلونِ

But if you do not believe me, then leave me alone."

فَدَعا رَبَّهُ أَنَّ هـٰؤُلاءِ قَومٌ مُجرِمونَ

And [finally] he called to his Lord that these were a criminal people.

فَأَسرِ بِعِبادي لَيلًا إِنَّكُم مُتَّبَعونَ

[Allah said], "Then set out with My servants by night. Indeed, you are to be pursued.
