Inna fee thalika laayatan wamakana aktharuhum mu/mineen

Wayadeequ sadree walayantaliqu lisanee faarsil ila haroon

And I shall be embarrassed, and my tongue will not speak plainly, therefor send for Aaron (to help me).

قَالَ فَعَلْتُهَآ إِذًا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ 26:20

Qala faAAaltuha ithanwaana mina addalleen

He said: I did it then, when I was of those who are astray.

فَقَرَأَهُۥ عَلَيْهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ مُؤْمِنِينَ 26:199

Faqaraahu AAalayhim ma kanoobihi mu/mineen

And he had read it unto them, they would not have believed in it.

كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكْنَـٰهُ فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ 26:200

Kathalika salaknahu feequloobi almujrimeen

Thus do We make it traverse the hearts of the guilty.

La yu/minoona bihi hattayarawoo alAAathaba al-aleem

They will not believe in it till they behold the painful doom,

فَيَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ 26:202

Faya/tiyahum baghtatan wahum layashAAuroon

So that it will come upon them suddenly, when they perceive not.

فَيَقُولُوا۟ هَلْ نَحْنُ مُنظَرُونَ 26:203

Fayaqooloo hal nahnu muntharoon

أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ 26:204

AfabiAAathabina yastaAAjiloon

Would they (now) hasten on Our doom?

أَفَرَءَيْتَ إِن مَّتَّعْنَـٰهُمْ سِنِينَ 26:205

Afaraayta in mattaAAnahum sineen

Hast thou then seen, if We content them for (long) years,

ثُمَّ جَآءَهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يُوعَدُونَ 26:206

Thumma jaahum ma kanooyooAAadoon

And then cometh that which they were promised,

مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يُمَتَّعُونَ 26:207

Ma aghna AAanhum ma kanooyumattaAAoon

(How) that wherewith they were contented naught availeth them?

Wama ahlakna min qaryatin illalaha munthiroon

ذِكْرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَـٰلِمِينَ 26:209

Thikra wama kunnathalimeen

For reminder, for We never were oppressors.

وَمَا تَنَزَّلَتْ بِهِ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ 26:210

Wama tanazzalat bihi ashshayateen

The devils did not bring it down.

وَمَا يَنۢبَغِى لَهُمْ وَمَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ 26:211

Wama yanbaghee lahum wamayastateeAAoon

إِنَّهُمْ عَنِ ٱلسَّمْعِ لَمَعْزُولُونَ 26:212

Innahum AAani assamAAilamaAAzooloona

Lo! verily they are banished from the hearing.

فَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُعَذَّبِينَ 26:213

Fala tadAAu maAAa Allahi ilahanakhara fatakoona mina almuAAaththabeen

Waanthir AAasheerataka al-aqrabeen

And warn thy tribe of near kindred,

وَٱخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ ٱتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ 26:215

Wakhfid janahakalimani ittabaAAaka mina almu/mineen

Watawakkal AAala alAAazeezi arraheem

And put thy trust in the Mighty, the Merciful.

ٱلَّذِى يَرَىٰكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ 26:218

Allathee yaraka heenataqoom

Who seeth thee when thou standest up (to pray)

وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِى ٱلسَّـٰجِدِينَ 26:219

Wataqallubaka fee assajideen

And (seeth) thine abasement among those who fall prostrate (in worship).

إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ 26:220

Innahu huwa assameeAAu alAAaleem

Lo! He, only He, is the Hearer, the Knower.

هَلْ أُنَبِّئُكُمْ عَلَىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُ 26:221

Hal onabbi-okum AAala man tanazzaluashshayateen

Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend?

تَنَزَّلُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٍ 26:222

Tanazzalu AAala kulli affakinatheem

Yulqoona assamAAa waaktharuhum kathiboon

They listen eagerly, but most of them are liars.

WashshuAAaraoyattabiAAuhumu alghawoon

As for poets, the erring follow them.

أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّهُمْ فِى كُلِّ وَادٍ يَهِيمُونَ 26:225

Alam tara annahum fee kulli wadinyaheemoon

Hast thou not seen how they stray in every valley,

وَأَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ مَا لَا يَفْعَلُونَ 26:226

Waannahum yaqooloona ma layafAAaloon

And how they say that which they do not?

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ وَذَكَرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَٱنتَصَرُوا۟ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا ظُلِمُوا۟ ۗ وَسَيَعْلَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَىَّ مُنقَلَبٍ يَنقَلِبُونَ 26:227

Illa allatheena amanoowaAAamiloo assalihati wathakaroo Allahakatheeran wantasaroo min baAAdi ma thulimoowasayaAAlamu allatheena thalamoo ayyamunqalabin yanqaliboon

Save those who believe and do good works, and remember Allah much, and vindicate themselves after they have been wronged. Those who do wrong will come to know by what a (great) reverse they will be overturned!
