وَتَنۡحِتُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡجِبَالِ بُيُوتٗا فَٰرِهِينَ
"And ye carve houses out of (rocky) mountains with great skill.
فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ
"But fear Allah and obey me;
وَلَا تُطِيعُوٓاْ أَمۡرَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ
"And follow not the bidding of those who are extravagant,-
ٱلَّذِينَ يُفۡسِدُونَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَلَا يُصۡلِحُونَ
"Who make mischief in the land, and mend not (their ways)."
قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَحَّرِينَ
They said: "Thou art only one of those bewitched!
مَآ أَنتَ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُنَا فَأۡتِ بِـَٔايَةٍ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ
"Thou art no more than a mortal like us: then bring us a Sign, if thou tellest the truth!"
قَالَ هَٰذِهِۦ نَاقَةٞ لَّهَا شِرۡبٞ وَلَكُمۡ شِرۡبُ يَوۡمٖ مَّعۡلُومٖ
He said: "Here is a she-camel: she has a right of watering, and ye have a right of watering, (severally) on a day appointed.
وَلَا تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوٓءٖ فَيَأۡخُذَكُمۡ عَذَابُ يَوۡمٍ عَظِيمٖ
"Touch her not with harm, lest the Penalty of a Great Day seize you."
