Moses said, "Lord, grant me courage. 25 "Ease my task for me; 26 And loose the knot from my tongue, 27 so that they might fully understand my speech, 28 Appoint for me a minister from my family 29 “That is Haroon, my brother.” 30 Strengthen me through him 31 And let him share my task 32 "That we may celebrate Thy praise without stint, 33 and may remember You much. 34 Surely You know us well." 35 He answered: "Granted is your prayer, O Moses. 36 Already another time We favoured thee, 37 "Behold! We sent to thy mother, by inspiration, the message: 38 to lace her child in a chest and throw it into the sea which would hurl it towards the shore. Then an enemy of Mine who was also the enemy of the child would pick it up from there. I made you attractive and loveable so that you would be reared before My own eyes. 39 Then your sister followed you, and said (to the people who had retrieved the child): 'Should I guide you to a person who can nurse him?'
