2. These are the verses of the clear Book
3. Perhaps, [O Muhammad], you would kill yourself with grief that they will not be believers
4. If We willed, We could send down to them from the sky a sign for which their necks would remain humbled
5. And no revelation comes to them anew from the Most Merciful except that they turn away from it
6. For they have already denied, but there will come to them the news of that which they used to ridicule
7. Did they not look at the earth - how much We have produced therein from every noble kind
8. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
9. And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
10. And [mention] when your Lord called Moses, [saying], "Go to the wrongdoing people
11. The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allah
12. He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me
13. And that my breast will tighten and my tongue will not be fluent, so send for Aaron
14. And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me
15. [Allah] said, "No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening
16. Go to Pharaoh and say, 'We are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds
17. [Commanded to say], "Send with us the Children of Israel
18. [Pharaoh] said, "Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life
19. And [then] you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful
20. [Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray
21. So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me wisdom and prophethood and appointed me [as one] of the messengers
22. And is this a favor of which you remind me - that you have enslaved the Children of Israel
23. Said Pharaoh, "And what is the Lord of the worlds
24. [Moses] said, "The Lord of the heavens and earth and that between them, if you should be convinced

26. [Moses] said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers
27. [Pharaoh] said, "Indeed, your 'messenger' who has been sent to you is mad
28. [Moses] said, "Lord of the east and the west and that between them, if you were to reason
29. [Pharaoh] said, "If you take a god other than me, I will surely place you among those imprisoned
30. [Moses] said, "Even if I brought you proof manifest
31. [Pharaoh] said, "Then bring it, if you should be of the truthful
32. So [Moses] threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent manifest
33. And he drew out his hand; thereupon it was white for the observers
34. [Pharaoh] said to the eminent ones around him, "Indeed, this is a learned magician
35. He wants to drive you out of your land by his magic, so what do you advise
36. They said, "Postpone [the matter of] him and his brother and send among the cities gatherers
37. Who will bring you every learned, skilled magician
38. So the magicians were assembled for the appointment of a well-known day
39. And it was said to the people, "Will you congregate
40. That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant
41. And when the magicians arrived, they said to Pharaoh, "Is there indeed for us a reward if we are the predominant
42. He said, "Yes, and indeed, you will then be of those near [to me]
43. Moses said to them, "Throw whatever you will throw
44. So they threw their ropes and their staffs and said, "By the might of Pharaoh, indeed it is we who are predominant
45. Then Moses threw his staff, and at once it devoured what they falsified
46. So the magicians fell down in prostration [to Allah]
47. They said, "We have believed in the Lord of the worlds
48. The Lord of Moses and Aaron
49. [Pharaoh] said, "You believed Moses before I gave you permission. Indeed, he is your leader who has taught you magic, but you are going to know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will surely crucify you all
50. They said, "No harm. Indeed, to our Lord we will return
51. Indeed, we aspire that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we were the first of the believers
52. And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued
53. Then Pharaoh sent among the cities gatherers
54. [And said], "Indeed, those are but a small band
55. And indeed, they are enraging us
56. And indeed, we are a cautious society
57. So We removed them from gardens and springs
58. And treasures and honorable station
59. Thus. And We caused to inherit it the Children of Israel
60. So they pursued them at sunrise
61. And when the two companies saw one another, the companions of Moses said, "Indeed, we are to be overtaken
62. [Moses] said, "No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me
63. Then We inspired to Moses, "Strike with your staff the sea," and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain
64. And We advanced thereto the pursuers
65. And We saved Moses and those with him, all together
66. Then We drowned the others
67. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
68. And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
69. And recite to them the news of Abraham
70. When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship
71. They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted
72. He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate
73. Or do they benefit you, or do they harm
74. They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus
75. He said, "Then do you see what you have been worshipping
76. You and your ancient forefathers
77. Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds
78. Who created me, and He [it is who] guides me
79. And it is He who feeds me and gives me drink
80. And when I am ill, it is He who cures me
81. And who will cause me to die and then bring me to life
82. And who I aspire that He will forgive me my sin on the Day of Recompense
83. [And he said], "My Lord, grant me authority and join me with the righteous
84. And grant me a reputation of honor among later generations
85. And place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Pleasure
86. And forgive my father. Indeed, he has been of those astray
87. And do not disgrace me on the Day they are [all] resurrected
88. The Day when there will not benefit [anyone] wealth or children
89. But only one who comes to Allah with a sound heart
90. And Paradise will be brought near [that Day] to the righteous
91. And Hellfire will be brought forth for the deviators
92. And it will be said to them, "Where are those you used to worship
93. Other than Allah? Can they help you or help themselves
94. So they will be overturned into Hellfire, they and the deviators
95. And the soldiers of Iblees, all together
96. They will say while they dispute therein
97. By Allah, we were indeed in manifest error
98. When we equated you with the Lord of the worlds
99. And no one misguided us except the criminals
100. So now we have no intercessors
101. And not a devoted friend
102. Then if we only had a return [to the world] and could be of the believers
103. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
104. And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
105. The people of Noah denied the messengers
106. When their brother Noah said to them, "Will you not fear Allah
107. Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger
108. So fear Allah and obey me
109. And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds
110. So fear Allah and obey me
111. They said, "Should we believe you while you are followed by the lowest [class of people]
112. He said, "And what is my knowledge of what they used to do
113. Their account is only upon my Lord, if you [could] perceive
114. And I am not one to drive away the believers
115. I am only a clear warner
116. They said, "If you do not desist, O Noah, you will surely be of those who are stoned
117. He said, "My Lord, indeed my people have denied me
118. Then judge between me and them with decisive judgement and save me and those with me of the believers
119. So We saved him and those with him in the laden ship
120. Then We drowned thereafter the remaining ones

128. Do you construct on every elevation a sign, amusing yourselves
129. And take for yourselves palaces and fortresses that you might abide eternally
130. And when you strike, you strike as tyrants
131. So fear Allah and obey me
132. And fear He who provided you with that which you know

134. And gardens and springs
135. Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a terrible day
136. They said, "It is all the same to us whether you advise or are not of the advisors
137. This is not but the custom of the former peoples

171. Except an old woman among those who remained behind
172. Then We destroyed the others

183. And do not deprive people of their due and do not commit abuse on earth, spreading corruption
184. And fear He who created you and the former creation
185. They said, "You are only of those affected by magic
186. You are but a man like ourselves, and indeed, we think you are among the liars
187. So cause to fall upon us fragments of the sky, if you should be of the truthful

189. And they denied him, so the punishment of the day of the black cloud seized them. Indeed, it was the punishment of a terrible day
190. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers
191. And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
192. And indeed, the Qur'an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds
193. The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down
194. Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] - that you may be of the warners
195. In a clear Arabic language
196. And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples
197. And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel
198. And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners
199. And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it
200. Thus have We inserted disbelief into the hearts of the criminals
201. They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment
202. And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not
203. And they will say, "May we be reprieved
204. So for Our punishment are they impatient
205. Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years
206. And then there came to them that which they were promised
207. They would not be availed by the enjoyment with which they were provided
208. And We did not destroy any city except that it had warners
209. As a reminder; and never have We been unjust
210. And the devils have not brought the revelation down
211. It is not allowable for them, nor would they be able
212. Indeed they, from [its] hearing, are removed
213. So do not invoke with Allah another deity and [thus] be among the punished
214. And warn, [O Muhammad], your closest kindred
215. And lower your wing to those who follow you of the believers
216. And if they disobey you, then say, "Indeed, I am disassociated from what you are doing
217. And rely upon the Exalted in Might, the Merciful
218. Who sees you when you arise
219. And your movement among those who prostrate
220. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing
221. Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend
222. They descend upon every sinful liar
223. They pass on what is heard, and most of them are liars
224. And the poets - [only] the deviators follow them
225. Do you not see that in every valley they roam
226. And that they say what they do not do
227. Except those [poets] who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allah often and defend [the Muslims] after they were wronged. And those who have wronged are going to know to what [kind of] return they will be returned
