إِلّا عِبادَ اللَّهِ المُخلَصينَ

Except for the sincere servants of God.

وَلَقَد نادانا نوحٌ فَلَنِعمَ المُجيبونَ

When Noah implored Us—excellent indeed are We in answering!

وَنَجَّيناهُ وَأَهلَهُ مِنَ الكَربِ العَظيمِ

We saved him and his family from the great disaster.

وَجَعَلنا ذُرِّيَّتَهُ هُمُ الباقينَ

We made his descendants to be those who remained.

وَتَرَكنا عَلَيهِ فِي الآخِرينَ

And We preserved his story for those who would come later.

إِنّا كَذٰلِكَ نَجزِي المُحسِنينَ

Thus, do We reward those who do good.

إِنَّهُ مِن عِبادِنَا المُؤمِنينَ

He was one of Our faithful servants.

ثُمَّ أَغرَقنَا الآخَرينَ

Then We drowned the others.

وَإِنَّ مِن شيعَتِهِ لَإِبراهيمَ

And among his descendants was Abraham.

إِذ جاءَ رَبَّهُ بِقَلبٍ سَليمٍ

When he approached his Lord with a sound heart.
