And certainly did We send Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his establishment, and he said, "Indeed, I am the messenger of the Lord of the worlds." 46 So when he brought Our signs to them, they started mocking at them! 47 And not a sign We showed them, but it was greater than its sister sign; and We seized them with chastisement, that haply they should return. 48 And they said, "O thou sorcerer! Invoke thy Lord for us according to His covenant with thee; for we shall truly accept guidance." 49 But when We had relieved them of their punishment they broke their promise. 50 And said Firaun, “O my people! Is not the kingdom of Egypt for me, and these rivers that flow beneath me? So do you not see?” 51 Am I not better than this lowly man who can barely express himself? 52 "Why then are not golden bracelets bestowed on him, or angels sent along with him?" 53 So when he had brainwashed his people, they followed him; indeed they were a disobedient nation. 54 But when they roused Our anger We inflicted retributive punishment and drowned them all, 55 And We made them a thing past, and an example for those after (them). 56
