33 He said: O Adam, inform them of their names. So when he informed them of their names, He said: Did I not say to you that I know what is unseen in the heavens and the earth? And I know what you manifest and what you hide. |
34 And when We said to the angels, Be submissive to Adam, they submitted, but Iblīs (did not). He refused and was proud, and he was one of the disbelievers. |
35 And We said: O Adam, dwell thou and thy wife in the garden, and eat from it a plenteous (food) wherever you wish, and approach not this tree, lest you be of the unjust. |
36 But the devil made them slip from it, and caused them to depart from the state in which they were. And We said: Go forth, some of you are the enemies of others. And there is for you in the earth an abode and a provision for a time. |
37 Then Adam received (revealed) words from his Lord, and He turned to him (mercifully). Surely He is Oft-returning (to mercy), the Merciful. |
38 We said: Go forth from this (state) all. Surely there will come to you a guidance from Me, then whoever follows My guidance, no fear shall come upon them, nor shall they grieve. |
39 And (as to) those who disbelieve in and reject Our messages, they are the companions of the Fire; in it they will abide. |
40 O Children of Israel, call to mind My favour which I bestowed on you and be faithful to (your) covenant with Me, I shall fulfil (My) covenant with you; and Me, Me alone, should you fear. |
41 And believe in that which I have revealed, verifying that which is with you, and be not the first to deny it; neither take a mean price for My messages; and keep your duty to Me, Me alone. |
42 And mix not up truth with falsehood, nor hide the truth while you know. |
43 And keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and bow down with those who bow down. |
44 Do you enjoin men to be good and neglect your own souls while you read the Book? Have you then no sense? |
