"This
إِلَٰهُكُمْ

وَإِلَٰهُ and the god مُوسَىٰ (of) Musa, فَنَسِىَ but he forgot." أَفَلَا Then, did not يَرَوْنَ they see أَلَّا that not يَرْجِعُ it (could) return إِلَيْهِمْ to them قَوْلًا a word
وَلَا and not يَمْلِكُ possess لَهُمْ for them ضَرًّا any harm وَلَا and not نَفْعًا any benefit? وَلَقَدْ And verily قَالَ (had) said لَهُمْ to them هَٰرُونُ Harun

أَلَّا That not تَتَّبِعَنِ you follow me? أَفَعَصَيْتَ Then, have you disobeyed أَمْرِى my order?" قَالَ He said, يَبْنَؤُمَّ "O son of my mother! لَا (Do) not تَأْخُذْ seize (me) بِلِحْيَتِى by my beard

فَٱذْهَبْ "Then go. فَإِنَّ And indeed, لَكَ for you فِى in ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ the life أَن that تَقُولَ you will say, لَا "(Do) not مِسَاسَ touch." وَإِنَّ And indeed, لَكَ for you
مَوْعِدًا (is) an appointment لَّن never تُخْلَفَهُۥ you will fail to (keep) it. وَٱنظُرْ And look إِلَىٰٓ at إِلَٰهِكَ your god ٱلَّذِى that which ظَلْتَ you have remained عَلَيْهِ to it
عَاكِفًا devoted. لَّنُحَرِّقَنَّهُۥ Surely we will burn it ثُمَّ then لَنَنسِفَنَّهُۥ certainly we will scatter it فِى in ٱلْيَمِّ the sea نَسْفًا (in) particles." إِنَّمَآ Only
إِلَٰهُكُمُ your God ٱللَّهُ (is) Allah ٱلَّذِى the One, لَآ (there is) no إِلَٰهَ god إِلَّا but هُوَ He. وَسِعَ He has encompassed كُلَّ all شَىْءٍ things عِلْمًا (in) knowledge.
