And Musa said, "My Lord knows best the one who has come with guidance from Him and who is going to have the best end of the abode. It is certain that the wrongdoers will not succeed."

And the Pharaoh said, "0 chiefs, I do not know of any god for you other than me. So kindle for me, 0 Haman, a fire on the clay (to bake bricks) and build for me a tower, so that I may look on to the God of Musa. And I deem him to be one of the liars."

And he and his hosts became over-proud in the land without justification and thought that they would not be returned to Us.

So We seized him and his hosts and threw them into the sea. Look then, how was the fate of the wrongdoers.

And We had made them leaders who called (people) towards hell. And on the Day of Judgment they will not be helped.

And We made a curse to pursue them in this world; and on the Day of Judgment they will be among those treated badly.

And We gave Muss, after We destroyed the earlier generations, the Book having insights for people and a guidance and mercy, so that they may take to advice.

And you (0 Muhammad) were not there at the Western side (of. the mount Tur) when We delegated the matter to Mass, nor were you among those present,

but We created generations (after him) and a long time passed over them. And you were not dwelling among the people of Madyan, reciting Our verses to them, but it is We who do send messengers.

And you were not at the side of (the mount) Tur when We called (Mass), but it (your prophethood through which you knew all this) is a mercy from your Lord, so that you warn a people to whom no warner has come before you, that they may take to advice.
