So the Cu seized them according to the true (promise), and We turned them in to scum. So, woe to the wrong doing people.

Then, after them, We created another generation.

No community can go ahead of its appointed time, nor can they stay behind.

Thereafter, We sent Our messengers successively. Whenever a community was approached by its messenger they belied him. Then We made some of them follow others (in destruction) and turned them into tales (of history). So, woe to a people who do not believe.

Thereafter, We sent Musa and his brother Harun, with Our signs and a clear proof

towards Fir'aun (the Pharaoh) and his advisors. But they showed arrogance and they were haughty people.

So they said, "shall we believe in two humans who are like ourselves and whose people are serving us as slaves?"

Thus they belied both of them and were among the destroyed.

And, of course, We gave Musa the Book, so that they may take the right path.

And We made the son of Maryam (Mary) and his mother a sign and gave them shelter on a height, a place of rest and running springs.
