59
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا عَبْدٌ أَنْعَمْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَجَعَلْنَاهُ مَثَلاً لِّبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ
He was no more than a servant: We granted Our favour to him, and We made him an example to the Children of Israel. |
58 وَقَالُوا أَآلِهَتُنَا
خَيْرٌ أَمْ هُوَ مَا ضَرَبُوهُ لَكَ إِلَّا جَدَلاً بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ خَصِمُونَ And they say, "Are our gods best, or he?" This they set forth to thee, only by way of disputation: yea, they are a contentious people. |
57 وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ
مَثَلاً إِذَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْهُ يَصِدُّونَ When (Jesus) the son of Mary is held up as an example, behold, thy people raise a clamour thereat (in ridicule)! |
56 فَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ
سَلَفاً وَمَثَلاً لِلْآخِرِينَ And We made them (a people) of the Past and an Example to later ages. |
55 فَلَمَّا آسَفُونَا
انتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ فَأَغْرَقْنَاهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ When at length they provoked Us, We exacted retribution from them, and We drowned them all. |
54 فَاسْتَخَفَّ قَوْمَهُ
فَأَطَاعُوهُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْماً فَاسِقِينَ Thus did he make fools of his people, and they obeyed him: truly were they a people rebellious (against Allah). |
53 فَلَوْلَا أُلْقِيَ عَلَيْهِ أَسْوِرَةٌ مِّن ذَهَبٍ أَوْ جَاء
مَعَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ مُقْتَرِنِينَ "Then why are not gold bracelets bestowed on him, or (why) come (not) with him angels accompanying him in procession?" |
52 أَمْ أَنَا خَيْرٌ مِّنْ هَذَا الَّذِي هُوَ مَهِينٌ
وَلَا يَكَادُ يُبِينُ "Am I not better than this (Moses), who is a contemptible wretch and can scarcely express himself clearly? |
51 وَنَادَى فِرْعَوْنُ فِي قَوْمِهِ
قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ أَلَيْسَ لِي مُلْكُ مِصْرَ وَهَذِهِ الْأَنْهَارُ تَجْرِي مِن
تَحْتِي أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ And Pharaoh proclaimed among his people, saying: "O my people! Does not the dominion of Egypt belong to me, (witness) these streams flowing underneath my (palace)? What! see ye not then? |
50 فَلَمَّا كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُمُ
الْعَذَابَ إِذَا هُمْ يَنكُثُونَ But when We removed the Penalty from them, behold, they broke their word. |
