Ya banee isra-eela othkuroo niAAmatiya allatee anAAamtu AAalaykum waannee faddaltukum AAala alAAalameena\n47. O Children of Israel! call to mind\n The (special) favour which I bestowed\n Upon you, and that I preferred you\n To all others (for My Message).\n48. Waittaqoo yawman la tajzee nafsun AAan nafsin shay-an wala yuqbalu minha shafaAAatun wala yu/khathu minha AAadlun wala hum yunsaroona\n48. Then guard yourselves against a day\n When one soul shall not avail another\n Nor shall intercession be accepted for her,\n Nor shall compensation be taken from her,\n Nor shall anyone be helped (from outside).\n49. Wa-ith najjaynakum min ali firAAawna yasoomoonakum soo-a alAAathabi yuthabbihoona abnaakum wayastahyoona nisaakum wafee thalikum balaon min rabbikum AAatheemun\n49. And remember, We delivered you\n From the people of Pharaoh: they set you\n Hard tasks and punishments, slaughtered\nYour sons and let your women-folk live;\n Therein was a tremendous trial from your Lord.\n50. Wa-ith faraqna bikumu albahra faanjaynakum waaghraqna ala firAAawna waantum tanthuroona\n50. And remember We divided\n The Sea for you and saved you\n And drowned Pharaoh's people\n Within your very sight.\n51. Wa-ith waAAadna moosa arbaAAeena laylatan thumma ittakhathtumu alAAijla min baAAdihi waantum thalimoona\n51. And remember We appointed\n Forty nights for Moses,\n And in his absence ye took\n The calf (for worship),\n And ye did grievous wrong.\n52. Thumma AAafawna AAankum min baAAdi thalika laAAallakum tashkuroona\n52. Even then We did forgive you;\n There was a chance for you\n To be grateful.\n53. Wa-ith atayna moosa alkitaba waalfurqana laAAallakum tahtadoona\n53. And remember We gave\n Moses the Scripture and the Criterion\n(Between right and wrong): there was\n A chance for you to be guided aright.\n54. Wa-ith qala moosa liqawmihi ya qawmi innakum thalamtum anfusakum biittikhathikumu alAAijla fatooboo ila bari-ikum faoqtuloo anfusakum thalikum khayrun lakum AAinda bari-ikum fataba AAalaykum innahu huwa alttawwabu alrraheemu\n54. And remember Moses said\n To his people: \"O my people!\n Ye have indeed wronged\n Yourselves by your worship of the calf:\n So turn (in repentance) to your Maker,\n And slay yourselves (the wrong-doers);\n That will be better for you\n In the sight of your Maker.\"\n Then He turned towards you (in forgiveness):\n For He is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.\n55. Wa-ith qultum ya moosa lan nu/mina laka hatta nara Allaha jahratan faakhathatkumu alssaAAiqatu waantum tanthuroona\n55. And remember ye said: \"O Moses!\n We shall never believe in thee\n Until we see God manifestly,\"\n But ye were dazed\n With thunder and lightning\n Even as ye looked on.\n56. Thumma baAAathnakum min baAAdi mawtikum laAAallakum tashkuroona\n56. Then We raised you up\n After your death:\n Ye had the chance\n To be grateful.\n57. Wathallalna AAalaykumu alghamama waanzalna AAalaykumu almanna waalssalwa kuloo min tayyibati ma razaqnakum wama thalamoona walakin kanoo anfusahum yathlimoona\n57. And We gave you the shade of clouds\nAnd sent down to you\n Manna and quails, saying:\n \"Eat of the good things\n We have provided fcr you:\"\n (But they rebelled);\n To Us they did no harm,\n But they harmed their own souls.\n58. Wa-ith qulna odkhuloo hathihi alqaryata fakuloo minha haythu shi/tum raghadan waodkhuloo albaba sujjadan waqooloo hittatun naghfir lakum khatayakum wasanazeedu almuhsineena\n58. And remember We said:\n \"Enter this town, and eat\n Of the plenty therein\n As ye wish; but enter\n The gate with humility,\n In posture and in words,\n And We shall forgive you your faults\n And increase (the portion of)\n Those who do good.\"\n59. Fabaddala allatheena thalamoo qawlan ghayra allathee qeela lahum faanzalna AAala allatheena thalamoo rijzan mina alssama-i bima kanoo yafsuqoona\n59. But the transgressors\n Changed the word from that\n Which had been given them;\n So We sent on the transgt essors\n A plague from heaven,\n For that they infringed\n (Our command) repeatedly.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra II.: Baqara, or the Heifer.: Section 6 (47-59)","type":"page"}
