فَافتَح بَيني وَبَينَهُم فَتحًا وَنَجِّني وَمَن مَعِيَ مِنَ المُؤمِنينَ

Judge decisively between me and them, and rescue me and the believers with me.”

فَأَنجَيناهُ وَمَن مَعَهُ فِي الفُلكِ المَشحونِ

So We saved him and those with him in the laden Ark.

ثُمَّ أَغرَقنا بَعدُ الباقينَ

Then, We drowned the others.

إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَما كانَ أَكثَرُهُم مُؤمِنينَ

There is a lesson in this, but most of them aren’t believers.

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ

Indeed your Lord—He is the Almighty, the Merciful.

إِذ قالَ لَهُم أَخوهُم هودٌ أَلا تَتَّقونَ

When their brother Hud implored them, “Won’t you exercise restraint?

إِنّي لَكُم رَسولٌ أَمينٌ

I am a trustworthy messenger to you.

فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطيعونِ

So, revere God, and obey me.

وَما أَسأَلُكُم عَلَيهِ مِن أَجرٍ ۖ إِن أَجرِيَ إِلّا عَلىٰ رَبِّ العالَمينَ

I ask no reward from you; my recompense is only from the Lord of the worlds.

أَتَبنونَ بِكُلِّ ريعٍ آيَةً تَعبَثونَ

You erect monuments on every hill in vanity.
