| إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِ أَنْ أَنْذِرْ قَوْمَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ {١} |
1. SENT NOAH to his people to warn them before the painful punishment came upon them. |
| قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ إِنِّي لَكُمْ نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ {٢} |
2. He said: "O my people, I warn you clearly |
| أَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَاتَّقُوهُ وَأَطِيعُونِ {٣} |
3. That you should worship God and fear Him, and follow me |
| يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرْكُمْ إِلَىٰ أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ۚ إِنَّ أَجَلَ اللَّهِ إِذَا جَاءَ لَا يُؤَخَّرُ ۖ لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ {٤} |
4. That He may forgive some of your sins and prolong your term till an appointed time. Surely when God´s appointed time is come it will not be put off, if only you knew! |
| قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِي لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا {٥} |
5. He said: "O Lord, I called my people night and day, |
| فَلَمْ يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَائِي إِلَّا فِرَارًا {٦} |
6. But the more I called, they only ran the farther away. |
| وَإِنِّي كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوا أَصَابِعَهُمْ فِي آذَانِهِمْ وَاسْتَغْشَوْا ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَصَرُّوا وَاسْتَكْبَرُوا اسْتِكْبَارًا {٧} |
7. And every time I called them that You may forgive them, they thrust their fingers into their ears, and covered themselves with their garments, and became wayward, and behaved with downright insolence. |
| ثُمَّ إِنِّي دَعَوْتُهُمْ جِهَارًا {٨} |
8. Then I called them loudly and more openly, |
| ثُمَّ إِنِّي أَعْلَنْتُ لَهُمْ وَأَسْرَرْتُ لَهُمْ إِسْرَارًا {٩} |
9. And declared to them in public and in private, |
| فَقُلْتُ اسْتَغْفِرُوا رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ غَفَّارًا {١٠} |
10. And I told them: ´Ask your Lord to forgive you. He is verily forgiving. |
| يُرْسِلِ السَّمَاءَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِدْرَارًا {١١} |
11. He will send you abundant rain from the sky, |
| وَيُمْدِدْكُمْ بِأَمْوَالٍ وَبَنِينَ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكُمْ جَنَّاتٍ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكُمْ أَنْهَارًا {١٢} |
12. And will give you increase of wealth and sons, and give you gardens and springs of water. |
| مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَرْجُونَ لِلَّهِ وَقَارًا {١٣} |
13. What has come upon you that you do not fear the majesty of God, |
| وَقَدْ خَلَقَكُمْ أَطْوَارًا {١٤} |
14. Knowing that He has created you by various stages? |
| أَلَمْ تَرَوْا كَيْفَ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ طِبَاقًا {١٥} |
15. Do you not see how God has fashioned seven skies one above the other, |
| وَجَعَلَ الْقَمَرَ فِيهِنَّ نُورًا وَجَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ سِرَاجًا {١٦} |
16. And has placed the moon therein, an illumination, and has placed the sun, a lighted lamp? |
| وَاللَّهُ أَنْبَتَكُمْ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ نَبَاتًا {١٧} |
17. God produced you from the earth like a vegetable growth; |
| ثُمَّ يُعِيدُكُمْ فِيهَا وَيُخْرِجُكُمْ إِخْرَاجًا {١٨} |
18. He will then return you back to it, and bring you out again. |
| وَاللَّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ بِسَاطًا {١٩} |
19. God has made the earth for you a spreading, |
| لِتَسْلُكُوا مِنْهَا سُبُلًا فِجَاجًا {٢٠} |
20. So that you may walk upon its spacious paths.´ |
| قَالَ نُوحٌ رَبِّ إِنَّهُمْ عَصَوْنِي وَاتَّبَعُوا مَنْ لَمْ يَزِدْهُ مَالُهُ وَوَلَدُهُ إِلَّا خَسَارًا {٢١} |
21. But they did not listen to me," Noah said, "and followed him whose wealth and children only added to his ruin. |
| وَمَكَرُوا مَكْرًا كُبَّارًا {٢٢} |
22. And they contrived a plot of great magnitude, |
| وَقَالُوا لَا تَذَرُنَّ آلِهَتَكُمْ وَلَا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَلَا سُوَاعًا وَلَا يَغُوثَ وَيَعُوقَ وَنَسْرًا {٢٣} |
23. And said: ´Do not abandon your gods, and do not abandon Wadda or Suwa´, or Yaghuth, Ya´uq or Nasr.´ |
| وَقَدْ أَضَلُّوا كَثِيرًا ۖ وَلَا تَزِدِ الظَّالِمِينَ إِلَّا ضَلَالًا {٢٤} |
24. And they misled many. So do not give the evil-doers increase but in error. |
| مِمَّا خَطِيئَاتِهِمْ أُغْرِقُوا فَأُدْخِلُوا نَارًا فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا لَهُمْ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ أَنْصَارًا {٢٥} |
25. They were drowned because of their habitual sinfulness, and sent to Hell, and did not find any helper other than God. |
| وَقَالَ نُوحٌ رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ دَيَّارًا {٢٦} |
26. Noah said: "O Lord, do not leave a single habitation of unbelievers on the earth. |
| إِنَّكَ إِنْ تَذَرْهُمْ يُضِلُّوا عِبَادَكَ وَلَا يَلِدُوا إِلَّا فَاجِرًا كَفَّارًا {٢٧} |
27. If you leave them, they will lead Your creatures astray, and beget but iniquitous and ungrateful offspring. |
| رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيَّ وَلِمَنْ دَخَلَ بَيْتِيَ مُؤْمِنًا وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَلَا تَزِدِ الظَّالِمِينَ إِلَّا تَبَارًا {٢٨} |
28. O Lord, forgive me, my parents, and any one who enters my house as a believer, and all believing men and women, and do not give the evil-doers increase save in ruin. |
