And who is more unjust than he who is reminded of the Signs of his Lord and then turns away from them ? WE will, surely, exact retribution from the guilty. 23. And WE indeed gave Moses the Book - be not, therefore, in doubt about receiving a perfect Book thyself - and WE made it a guidance for the Children of Israel. 24. And WE appointed from among them leaders, who guided the people by Our command, because they were steadfast and had firm faith in Our Signs. 25. Verily, thy Lord - HE will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that in which they used to disagree. 26. Does it not furnish guidance to them how many a generation have WE destroyed before them, amid whose dwellings they now walk about ? In that, surely, are Signs. Will they not then listen ? 27. Do they not see that WE drive the water to the dry land and produce thereby crops of which their cattle eat, and they themselves also ? Will they not then see ? 28. And they say, `When will this victory come, if you are truthful ?' 29. Say, `On the day of victory the faith of the disbelievers shall not avail them, nor will they be respited.' 30. So turn away from them, and wait. They are also waiting. |
