Pharaoh, People of Pharaoh

And [recall] when We saved you [i.e., your forefathers] from the people of Pharaoh, who afflicted you with the worst torment, slaughtering your [newborn] sons and keeping your females alive. And in that was a great trial from your Lord.

[Theirs is] like the custom of the people of Pharaoh and those before them. They denied Our signs, so Allāh seized them for their sins. And Allāh is severe in penalty.

And [recall, O Children of Israel], when We saved you from the people of Pharaoh, [who were] afflicting you with the worst torment - killing your sons and keeping your women alive. And in that was a great trial from your Lord.

And We had already tried before them the people of Pharaoh, and there came to them a noble messenger [i.e., Moses],

[Saying], "Render to me the servants of Allāh.¹ Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger,"

And [saying], "Be not haughty with Allāh. Indeed, I have come to you with clear evidence.

And indeed, I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord, lest you stone me.¹

But if you do not believe me, then leave me alone."

And [finally] he called to his Lord that these were a criminal people.

[Allāh said], "Then set out with My servants by night. Indeed, you are to be pursued.

And leave the sea in stillness.¹ Indeed, they are an army to be drowned."

How much they left behind of gardens and springs

And crops and noble sites

And comfort wherein they were amused.

Thus. And We caused to inherit it another people.

And the heaven and earth wept not for them, nor were they reprieved.

And We certainly saved the Children of Israel from the humiliating torment -

From Pharaoh. Indeed, he was a haughty one among the transgressors.

And We certainly chose them by knowledge over [all] the worlds.

And We gave them of signs that in which there was a clear trial.
