And when

said

Musa

to his people

Remember

(the) Favor of Allah

(the) Favor of Allah

upon you

when

He saved you

from

(the) people

(of) Firaun

they were afflicting you

(with) evil

torment

and were slaughtering

your sons

and letting live

your women

And in

that

(was) a trial

from

your Lord

great

And when

proclaimed

your Lord

If

you are thankful

surely I will increase you

but if

you are ungrateful

indeed

My punishment

(is) surely severe

And said

Musa

If

you disbelieve

you

and whoever

(is) in

the earth

all

then indeed

Allah

certainly (is) Free of need

Praiseworthy

Has not

come to you

(the) news

(of) those who

(were) before you

(were) before you

the people

of Nuh

and Aad

and Thamud

and those who

(were) after them

(were) after them

None

knows them

except

Allah

Came to them

their Messengers

with clear proofs

but they returned

their hands

in

their mouths

and they said

Indeed we

[we] disbelieve

in what

you have been sent

with [it]

and indeed, we

(are) surely in

doubt

about what

you invite us

to it

suspicious

Said

their Messengers

Can (there) be about

Allah

any doubt

(the) Creator

(of) the heavens

and the earth

He invites you

so that He may forgive

for you

[of]

your sins

and give you respite

for

a term

appointed

They said

Not

you

(are) but

a human

like us

you wish

to

hinder us

from what

used to

worship

our forefathers

So bring us

an authority

clear
