Nuh said: my Lord! verily they have disobeyed me and followed them whose riches and children have only increased them in loss. 21 "And they have plotted a mighty plot. 22 "And they have said (to each other), 'Abandon not your gods: Abandon neither Wadd nor Suwa', neither Yaguth nor Ya'uq, nor Nasr';- 23 And indeed they have led astray many, and do not increase the unjust in aught but error. 24 Because of their sins they were drowned, then made to enter a Fire. And they found they had no helpers in place of Allah. 25 Noah prayed, "O my Lord! Do not leave on earth a single one of those who deny the truth -- 26 if You do, they will mislead Your servants and will only give birth to ungrateful sinners. 27 My Lord! Forgive me and my parents and him who entereth my house believing, and believing men and believing women, and increase not the wrong-doers in aught save ruin. 28
