Nuh said: My Lord! surely they have disobeyed me and followed him whose wealth and children have added to him nothing but loss. 21 And they have planned a very great plan. 22 and said: 'Do not renounce your gods, do not leave waddan or suwa'an or yaghutha, or ya'uqa, or nasra' 23 And already they have misled many. And, [my Lord], do not increase the wrongdoers except in error." 24 Because of their sins, they were drowned and made to enter hell. They could find no one to help them besides God. 25 Noah said: "O Lord, do not leave a single habitation of unbelievers on the earth. 26 Surely, if Thou leavest them, they will lead Thy servants astray, and will beget none but unbelieving libertines. 27 My Lord, forgive me and my parents and whosoever enters my house as a believer, and the believers, men and women alike; and do Thou not increase the evildoers save in ruin!' 28
