وَٱتۡرُكِ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ رَهۡوًاۖ إِنَّهُمۡ جُندٞ مُّغۡرَقُونَ
and leave the sea in the state of stillness; they are an army that is sure to be drowned.”
كَمۡ تَرَكُواْ مِن جَنَّـٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ
How many gardens and fountains have they left behind-
وَزُرُوعٖ وَمَقَامٖ كَرِيمٖ
- and how many fields and noble sites,
وَنَعۡمَةٖ كَانُواْ فِيهَا فَٰكِهِينَ
and how many a luxury they used to rejoice in!
كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِينَ
This is how it happened. And We made other people inherit all this.
فَمَا بَكَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُنظَرِينَ
So, neither the sky and earth wept over them, nor were they given a respite.
وَلَقَدۡ نَجَّيۡنَا بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَـٰٓءِيلَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٱلۡمُهِينِ
And We delivered the children of Isrā’īl from the humiliating punishment,
مِن فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِيٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ
from Fir‘aun. Indeed, he was haughty, one of the transgressors.
