41 And I have chosen thee for Myself. |
42 Go thou and thy brother with My messages and be not remiss in remembering Me. |
43 Go both of you to Pharaoh, surely he is inordinate; |
44 Then speak to him a gentle word, haply he may mind or fear. |
45 They said: Our Lord, we fear lest he hasten to do evil to us or be inordinate. |
46 He said: Fear not, surely I am with you — I do hear and see. |
47 So go you to him and say: Surely we are two messengers of thy Lord; so send forth the Children of Israel with us; and torment them not. Indeed we have brought to thee a message from thy Lord, and peace to him who follows the guidance. |
48 It has indeed been revealed to us that punishment will overtake him who rejects and turns away. |
49 (Pharaoh) said: Who is your Lord, O Moses? |
50 He said: Our Lord is He Who gives to everything its creation, then guides (it). |
51 He said: What then is the state of the former generations? |
52 He said: The knowledge thereof is with my Lord in a book; my Lord neither errs nor forgets — |
53 Who made the earth for you an expanse and made for you therein paths and sent down water from the clouds. Then thereby We bring forth pairs of various herbs. |
54 Eat and pasture your cattle. Surely there are signs in this for men of understanding. |
55 From it We created you, and into it We shall return you, and from it raise you a second time. |
56 And truly We showed him all Our signs but he rejected and refused. |
57 Said he: Hast thou come to us to turn us out of our land by thy enchantment, O Moses? |
