[And] Noah continued: "O my Sustainer! Behold, they have opposed me [throughout,] for they follow people whose wealth and children lead them increasingly into ruin, 21 They contrived a plot of great magnitude. 22 inasmuch as they said [to their followers,] 'Do not ever abandon your gods: abandon neither Wadd nor Suwa', and neither Yaghuth nor Ya'uq nor Nasr!' 23 And they misled many. So do not give the evil-doers increase but 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 And prayed Nooh, “O my Lord! Do not leave any of the disbelievers dwelling in the land.” 26 "For, if Thou dost leave (any of) them, they will but mislead Thy devotees, and they will breed none but wicked ungrateful ones. 27 My Lord, forgive me and my parents, and whoever enters my house as a believer, and forgive all believers, both men and women, and do not increase the wrong-doers in anything except perdition.” 28
