31 Surely We sent upon them a single cry, so they were like the dry fragments of trees, which the maker of an enclosure collects. |
32 And certainly We have made the Qur’ān easy to remember, but is there any one who will mind? |
33 The people of Lot treated the warning as a lie. |
34 Surely We sent upon them a stone-storm, except Lot’s followers; We saved them a little before daybreak — |
35 A favour from Us. Thus do We reward him who gives thanks. |
36 And certainly he warned them of Our violent seizure, but they disputed the warning. |
37 And certainly they endeavoured to turn him from his guests, but We blinded their eyes; so taste My chastisement and My warning. |
38 And certainly a lasting chastisement overtook them in the morning. |
39 So taste My chastisement and My warning. |
40 And certainly We have made the Qur’ān easy to remember, but is there any one who will mind? |
41 And certainly the warning came to Pharaoh’s people. |
42 They rejected all Our signs, so We overtook them with the seizing of the Mighty, the Powerful. |
43 Are your disbelievers better than these, or have you an immunity in the scriptures? |
44 Or say they: We are a host allied together to help each other? |
45 Soon shall the hosts be routed, and they will show (their) backs. |
46 Nay, the Hour is their promised time, and the Hour is most grievous and bitter. |
47 Surely the guilty are in error and distress. |
48 On the day when they are dragged into the Fire upon their faces: Taste the touch of hell. |
49 Surely We have created everything according to a measure. |
50 And Our command is but once, as the twinkling of an eye. |
