Walamma balagha ashuddahu waistawa ataynahu hukman waAAilman wakathalika najzee almuhsineena\n14. When he reached full age,\n And was firmly established\n (In life), We bestowed on him\n Wisdom and knowledge: for thus\n Do We reward those\n Who do good.\n15. Wadakhala almadeenata AAala heeni ghaflatin min ahliha fawajada feeha rajulayni yaqtatilani hatha min sheeAAatihi wahatha min AAaduwwihi faistaghathahu allathee min sheeAAatihi AAala allathee min AAaduwwihi fawakazahu moosa faqada AAalayhi qala hatha min AAamali alshshaytani innahu AAaduwwun mudillun mubeenun\n15. And he entered the City\n At a time when its people\n Were not watching: and he\n Found there two men fighting,\u2014\n One of his own religion,\n And the other, of his foes.\n Now the man of his own\n Religion appealed to him\n Against his foe, and Moses\n Struck him with his fist\n And made an end of him.\n He said: \"This is a work\n Of Evil (Satan): for he is\n An enemy that manifestly\n Misleads!\"\n16. Qala rabbi innee thalamtu nafsee faighfir lee faghafara lahu innahu huwa alghafooru alrraheemu\n16. He prayed: \"O my Lord!\n I have indeed wronged my soul!\n Do Thou then forgive me!\"\n So (God) forgave him: for He\n Is the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.\n17. Qala rabbi bima anAAamta AAalayya falan akoona thaheeran lilmujrimeena\n17. He said: \"O my Lord!\n For that Thou hast bestowed\n Thy Grace on me, never\n Shall I be a help\n To those who sin!\"\n18. Faasbaha fee almadeenati kha-ifan yataraqqabu fa-itha allathee istansarahu bial-amsi yastasrikhuhu qala lahu moosa innaka laghawiyyun mubeenun\n18. So he saw the morning\n In the City, looking about,\n In a state of fear, when\n Behold, the man who had,\n The day before, sought his help\n Called aloud for his help\n (Again). Moses said to him:\n \"Thou art truly, it is clear,\n A quarrelsome fellow!\"\n19. Falamma an arada an yabtisha biallathee huwa AAaduwwun lahuma qala ya moosa atureedu an taqtulanee kama qatalta nafsan bial-amsi in tureedu illa an takoona jabbaran fee al-ardi wama tureedu an takoona mina almusliheena\n19. Then, when he decided to lay\n Hold of the man who was\n An enemy to both of them,\n That man said: \"O Moses!\n Is it thy intention to slay me\n As thou slewest a man\n Yesterday? Thy intention is\n None other than to become\n A powerful violent man\n In the land, and not to be\n One who sets things right!\n20. Wajaa rajulun min aqsa almadeenati yasAAa qala ya moosa inna almalaa ya/tamiroona bika liyaqtulooka faokhruj innee laka mina alnnasiheena\n20. And there came a man,\n Running, from the furthest end\n Of the City. He said:\n \"O Moses! the Chiefs\n Are taking counsel together\n About thee, to slay thee:\n So get thee away, for I\n Do give thee sincere advice.\"\n21. Fakharaja minha kha-ifan yataraqqabu qala rabbi najjinee mina alqawmi alththalimeena\n21. He therefore got away therefrom,\n Looking about, in a state\n Of fear. He prayed:\n \"O my Lord! save me\n From people given to wrong-doing.\"","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XXVIII.: Qa\u1e63a\u1e63, or the N...","type":"page"}
