Thamud (people also) belied the warnings. 23 And said, "Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness. 24 Has the [Divine] message been revealed to him alone of all of us? No, he is a boastful liar." 25 [And God said:] "On the morrow they will come to know who the boastful liar is! 26 We shall send the she-camel to try them. So watch them, and be constant. 27 And tell them that the water [of the well] is to be divided between them, and that each one should drink in turn." 28 But they called their companion who took a sword and hamstrung her. 29 Then, how (terrible) was My Torment and My Warnings? 30 We loosed against them one Cry, and they were as the wattles of a pen-builder. 31 We have made the Koran an easy Remembrance, is there any that will remember! 32 The people of Lot rejected the warnings. 33 We sent against them a violent Tornado with showers of stones, (which destroyed them), except Lut's household: them We delivered by early Dawn,- 34 A favor from Us; thus do We reward him who gives thanks. 35 And he had already warned them of Our assault, but they disputed the warning. 36 They even solicited of him his guests, but We obliterated their eyes: 'Now, taste My punishment and My warnings' 37 And indeed, the everlasting punishment overcame them early in the morning. 38 Taste then My torment and My warnings. 39 Surely We have made this Qur'an easy as a reminder. Is there, then, any who will take heed? 40
