وَفي موسىٰ إِذ أَرسَلناهُ إِلىٰ فِرعَونَ بِسُلطانٍ مُبينٍ

And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.

فَتَوَلّىٰ بِرُكنِهِ وَقالَ ساحِرٌ أَو مَجنونٌ

But he turned away with his supporters and said," A magician or a madman."

فَأَخَذناهُ وَجُنودَهُ فَنَبَذناهُم فِي اليَمِّ وَهُوَ مُليمٌ

So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.

وَفي عادٍ إِذ أَرسَلنا عَلَيهِمُ الرّيحَ العَقيمَ

And in 'Aad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind.

ما تَذَرُ مِن شَيءٍ أَتَت عَلَيهِ إِلّا جَعَلَتهُ كَالرَّميمِ

It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins.

فَعَتَوا عَن أَمرِ رَبِّهِم فَأَخَذَتهُمُ الصّاعِقَةُ وَهُم يَنظُرونَ

But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.

فَمَا استَطاعوا مِن قِيامٍ وَما كانوا مُنتَصِرينَ

And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves.

وَقَومَ نوحٍ مِن قَبلُ ۖ إِنَّهُم كانوا قَومًا فاسِقينَ

And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient.

وَالسَّماءَ بَنَيناها بِأَيدٍ وَإِنّا لَموسِعونَ

And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.

وَالأَرضَ فَرَشناها فَنِعمَ الماهِدونَ

And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.
