قالَ إِنّي لِعَمَلِكُم مِنَ القالينَ

He responded, “I am of those who disapprove of your conduct.”

رَبِّ نَجِّني وَأَهلي مِمّا يَعمَلونَ

فَنَجَّيناهُ وَأَهلَهُ أَجمَعينَ

إِلّا عَجوزًا فِي الغابِرينَ

Except an elderly woman among those who stayed behind.

ثُمَّ دَمَّرنَا الآخَرينَ

Then We destroyed the others.

إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَما كانَ أَكثَرُهُم مُؤمِنينَ

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

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ

Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.

كَذَّبَ أَصحابُ الأَيكَةِ المُرسَلينَ

The inhabitants of the Forest denied the messengers.

إِذ قالَ لَهُم شُعَيبٌ أَلا تَتَّقونَ
