فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّـهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ |  | 150 “So be in prudent fear1 of God, and obey me.2
وَلَا تُطِيعُوٓا۟ أَمْرَ ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ |  | 151 “And obey not the command of the committers of excess:
ٱلَّذِينَ يُفْسِدُونَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا يُصْلِحُونَ |  | 152 “Those who work corruption in the land, and do not right.”
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَحَّرِينَ |  | 153 They said: “Thou art but one taken by sorcery.1
مَآ أَنتَ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا فَأْتِ بِـَٔايَةٍ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ |  | 154 “Thou art only a mortal like us; then bring thou a proof,1 if thou be of the truthful.”
قَالَ هَـٰذِهِۦ نَاقَةٌ لَّهَا شِرْبٌ وَلَكُمْ شِرْبُ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ |  | 155 He said: “This is a she-camel; to her a drink and to you a drink on a day appointed.1
وَلَا تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوٓءٍ فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ |  | 156 “And touch her not with evil1 lest there take you the punishment of a tremendous day.”
فَعَقَرُوهَا فَأَصْبَحُوا۟ نَـٰدِمِينَ |  | 157 But they hamstrung1 her,2 then they became remorseful,
فَأَخَذَهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ |  | 158 And the punishment seized them. In that is a proof,1 but most of them are not believers.2
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ |  | 159 And thy Lord: He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ لُوطٍ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ |  | 160 The people of Lot denied the emissaries
إِذْ قَالَ لَهُمْ أَخُوهُمْ لُوطٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ |  | 161 When their brother Lot said to them: “Will you not be in prudent fear?1
إِنِّى لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ |  | 162 “I am to you a trustworthy messenger,
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّـهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ |  | 163 “So be in prudent fear1 of God, and obey me.2
وَمَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ إِنْ أَجْرِىَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ |  | 164 “And I ask of you for it no reward; my reward is only upon1 the Lord of All Creation.
أَتَأْتُونَ ٱلذُّكْرَانَ مِنَ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ |  | 165 “Do you approach the males among all mankind,
وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّنْ أَزْوَٰجِكُم بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ عَادُونَ |  | 166 “And leave what your Lord created for you among your wives? The truth is,1 you are a transgressing people.”2
قَالُوا۟ لَئِن لَّمْ تَنتَهِ يَـٰلُوطُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلْمُخْرَجِينَ |  | 167 They said: “If thou cease not, O Lot, thou wilt be of those turned out.”
قَالَ إِنِّى لِعَمَلِكُم مِّنَ ٱلْقَالِينَ |  | 168 He said: “I am of those who abhor your deed.”1
رَبِّ نَجِّنِى وَأَهْلِى مِمَّا يَعْمَلُونَ |  | 169 “My Lord: deliver Thou me and my household from what they do.”1
فَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُ وَأَهْلَهُۥٓ أَجْمَعِينَ |  | 170 And We delivered him and his household all together,
إِلَّا عَجُوزًا فِى ٱلْغَـٰبِرِينَ |  | 171 Save an old woman1 among those who stayed behind;
ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا ٱلْـَٔاخَرِينَ |  | 172 Then We annihilated the others,
وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهِم مَّطَرًا فَسَآءَ مَطَرُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ |  | 173 And We rained upon them a rain; and evil is the rain of those who were warned.
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ |  | 174 In that is a proof,1 but most of them are not believers.2
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ |  | 175 And thy Lord: He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
كَذَّبَ أَصْحَـٰبُ لْـَٔيْكَةِ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ |  | 176 And the companions of the woods1 denied the emissaries
إِذْ قَالَ لَهُمْ شُعَيْبٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ |  | 177 When Shuʿayb said to them: “Will you not be in prudent fear?1
إِنِّى لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ |  | 178 “I am to you a trustworthy messenger,
فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّـهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ |  | 179 “So be in prudent fear1 of God, and obey me.2
وَمَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ إِنْ أَجْرِىَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ |  | 180 “And I ask of you for it no reward; my reward is only upon1 the Lord of All Creation.
أَوْفُوا۟ ٱلْكَيْلَ وَلَا تَكُونُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْمُخْسِرِينَ |  | 181 “Fulfil the measure, and be not of those who cause loss.
وَزِنُوا۟ بِٱلْقِسْطَاسِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِ |  | 182 “And weigh with the straight balance.
وَلَا تَبْخَسُوا۟ ٱلنَّاسَ أَشْيَآءَهُمْ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ |  | 183 “And deprive not men of their possessions,1 and commit not evil in the earth, working corruption.
وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ وَٱلْجِبِلَّةَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ |  | 184 “And be in prudent fear1 of Him who created you and the generations2 of the former peoples.”
قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مِنَ ٱلْمُسَحَّرِينَ |  | 185 They said: “Thou art but one taken by sorcery;
وَمَآ أَنتَ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا وَإِن نَّظُنُّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلْكَـٰذِبِينَ |  | 186 “And thou art only a mortal like us; and we consider thee a liar.1
فَأَسْقِطْ عَلَيْنَا كِسَفًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ |  | 187 “Then cause thou pieces of the sky to fall upon us, if thou be of the truthful.”
قَالَ رَبِّىٓ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ |  | 188 He said: “My Lord best knows what you do.”
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمِ ٱلظُّلَّةِ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ |  | 189 Then they denied him;1 then there seized them the punishment of the Day of Shadow; it was the punishment of a tremendous day.
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ |  | 190 In that is a proof,1 but most of them are not believers.2
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ |  | 191 And thy Lord: He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَنزِيلُ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ |  | 192 And it1 is a revelation2 of the Lord of All Creation,
نَزَلَ بِهِ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْأَمِينُ |  | 193 Brought down by the Faithful Spirit1
عَلَىٰ قَلْبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُنذِرِينَ |  | 194 Upon thy heart — that thou be of the warners —
بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِىٍّۢ مُّبِينٍ |  | 195 In a clear Arabic tongue.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَفِى زُبُرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ |  | 196 And it is in the writings1 of the former peoples.
أَوَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُمْ ءَايَةً أَن يَعْلَمَهُۥ عُلَمَـٰٓؤُا۟ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ |  | 197 Is it not a proof1 to them that the learned of the children of Israel know it?
وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَـٰهُ عَلَىٰ بَعْضِ ٱلْأَعْجَمِينَ |  | 198 And had We sent it down upon any of the non-Arabs,
فَقَرَأَهُۥ عَلَيْهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ مُؤْمِنِينَ |  | 199 And he had recited it to them, they would not have been believers in1 it.
