| 26. Pharaoh said, `Leave me alone that I may slay Moses, and let him call on his Lord. I fear lest he should change your religion or cause disorder to appear in the land.' 27. And Moses said, I take refuge with my Lord and your Lord from every arrogant person who believes not in the Day of Reckoning.' 28. And a believing man from among the people of Pharaoh, who kept hidden his faith, said, `Will you slay a man because he says, `My Lord is ALLAH,' while he has also brought you clear proofs from your Lord ? And if he be a liar, on him will be the sin of his lie; but if he is truthful, then some of that which he threatens you with will, surely, befall you. Certainly, ALLAH guides not one who exceeds the bounds and is a great liar;' 29. `O my people, yours is the sovereignty this day, you being dominant in the land. But who will help us and protect us from the punishment of ALLAH if it comes upon us ?' Pharaoh said, `I only point out to you that which I see myself, and I guide you only to the path of rectitude.' 30. And he who believed said, `O my people, I fear for you something like the day of destruction of the great peoples of the past; 31. `Like that which happened to the people of Noah, and the tribes of Ad and Thamud and those after them. And ALLAH intends no injustice to HIS servants: 32. `And O my people, I fear for you the day when people will call one another for help, 33. `The day when you shall turn back fleeing; and there will be no one to save you from ALLAH's wrath. And for him whom ALLAH leaves to go astray, there shall be no guide.' |
