And certainly

We have explained

in

this

the Quran

for mankind

of

every

example

But is

the man

(in) most

things

quarrelsome

And nothing

prevents

men

that

they believe

when

has come to them

the guidance

and they ask forgiveness

(of) their Lord

except

that

comes to them

(the) way

(of) the former (people)

or

comes to them

the punishment

before (them)

And not

We send

the Messengers

except

(as) bearers of glad tidings

and (as) warners

And dispute

those who

disbelieve

with falsehood

to refute

thereby

the truth

And they take

My Verses

and what

they are warned

(in) ridicule

And who

(is) more wrong

than (he) who

is reminded

of the Verses

(of) his Lord

but turns away

from them

and forgets

what

have sent forth

his hands

Indeed, We

[We] have placed

over

their hearts

coverings

lest

they understand it

and in

their ears

(is) deafness

And if

you call them

to

the guidance

then never

they will be guided

then

ever

And your Lord

(is) the Most Forgiving

Owner

(of) the Mercy

If

He were to seize them

for what

they have earned

surely, He (would) have hastened

for them

the punishment

But

for them

(is) an appointment

never

they will find

other than it

other than it

an escape

And these

[the] towns

We destroyed them

when

they wronged

and We made

for their destruction

an appointed time

And when

said

Musa

to his boy

Not

I will cease

until

I reach

the junction

(of) the two seas

or

I continue

(for) a long period

But when

they reached

the junction

between them

they forgot

their fish

and it took

its way

into

the sea

slipping away
