نوح

1 Indeed, We sent Noah to his people, [saying], "Warn your people before there comes to them a painful punishment."

1 Inna arsalna noohan ila qawmihi an anthir qawmaka min qabli an yatiyahum AAathabun aleemun

2 He said, "O my people, indeed I am to you a clear warner,

2 Qala ya qawmi innee lakum natheerun mubeenun

3 [Saying], 'Worship Allah, fear Him and obey me.

3 Ani oAAbudoo Allaha waittaqoohu waateeAAooni

4 Allah will forgive you of your sins and delay you for a specified term. Indeed, the time [set by] Allah, when it comes, will not be delayed, if you only knew.' "

4 Yaghfir lakum min thunoobikum wayuakhkhirkum ila ajalin musamman inna ajala Allahi itha jaa la yuakhkharu law kuntum taAAlamoona

5 He said, "My Lord, indeed I invited my people [to truth] night and day.

5 Qala rabbi innee daAAawtu qawmee laylan wanaharan

6 But my invitation increased them not except in flight.

6 Falam yazidhum duAAaee illa firaran

7 And indeed, every time I invited them that You may forgive them, they put their fingers in their ears, covered themselves with their garments, persisted, and were arrogant with [great] arrogance.

7 Wainnee kullama daAAawtuhum litaghfira lahum jaAAaloo asabiAAahum fee athanihim waistaghshaw thiyabahum waasarroo waistakbaroo istikbaran

8 Then I invited them publicly.

8 Thumma innee daAAawtuhum jiharan

9 Then I announced to them and [also] confided to them secretly

9 Thumma innee aAAlantu lahum waasrartu lahum israran

10 And said, 'Ask forgiveness of your Lord. Indeed, He is ever a Perpetual Forgiver.

10 Faqultu istaghfiroo rabbakum innahu kana ghaffaran

11 He will send [rain from] the sky upon you in [continuing] showers

11 Yursili alssamaa AAalaykum midraran

12 And give you increase in wealth and children and provide for you gardens and provide for you rivers.

12 Wayumdidkum biamwalin wabaneena wayajAAal lakum jannatin wayajAAal lakum anharan

13 What is [the matter] with you that you do not attribute to Allah [due] grandeur

13 Ma lakum la tarjoona lillahi waqaran

14 While He has created you in stages?

14 Waqad khalaqakum atwaran

15 Do you not consider how Allah has created seven heavens in layers

15 Alam taraw kayfa khalaqa Allahu sabAAa samawatin tibaqan

16 And made the moon therein a [reflected] light and made the sun a burning lamp?

16 WajaAAala alqamara feehinna nooran wajaAAala alshshamsa sirajan

17 And Allah has caused you to grow from the earth a [progressive] growth.

17 WaAllahu anbatakum mina alardi nabatan

18 Then He will return you into it and extract you [another] extraction.

18 Thumma yuAAeedukum feeha wayukhrijukum ikhrajan

19 And Allah has made for you the earth an expanse

19 WaAllahu jaAAala lakumu alarda bisatan

20 That you may follow therein roads of passage.' "

20 Litaslukoo minha subulan fijajan

21 Noah said, "My Lord, indeed they have disobeyed me and followed him whose wealth and children will not increase him except in loss.

21 Qala noohun rabbi innahum AAasawnee waittabaAAoo man lam yazidhu maluhu wawaladuhu illa khasaran

22 And they conspired an immense conspiracy.

22 Wamakaroo makran kubbaran

23 And said, 'Never leave your gods and never leave Wadd or Suwa' or Yaghuth and Ya'uq and Nasr.

23 Waqaloo la tatharunna alihatakum wala tatharunna waddan wala suwaAAan wala yaghootha wayaAAooqa wanasran

24 And already they have misled many. And, [my Lord], do not increase the wrongdoers except in error."

24 Waqad adalloo katheeran wala tazidi alththalimeena illa dalalan

25 Because of their sins they were drowned and put into the Fire, and they found not for themselves besides Allah [any] helpers.

25 Mimma khateeatihim oghriqoo faodkhiloo naran falam yajidoo lahum min dooni Allahi ansaran

26 And Noah said, "My Lord, do not leave upon the earth from among the disbelievers an inhabitant.

26 Waqala noohun rabbi la tathar AAala alardi mina alkafireena dayyaran

27 Indeed, if You leave them, they will mislead Your servants and not beget except [every] wicked one and [confirmed] disbeliever.

27 Innaka in tatharhum yudilloo AAibadaka wala yalidoo illa fajiran kaffaran

28 My Lord, forgive me and my parents and whoever enters my house a believer and the believing men and believing women. And do not increase the wrongdoers except in destruction."

28 Rabbi ighfir lee waliwalidayya waliman dakhala baytiya muminan walilmumineena waalmuminati wala tazidi alththalimeena illa tabaran
