The Thamud (also) rejected (their) Warners. 23 And said: "Should we follow only one man among us? In that case we shall be in error and insane." 24 Why - on him alone from among all of us should a [divine] reminder have been bestowed? Nay, but he is a boastful liar!" 25 Tomorrow shall they know who is the liar, the insolent one. 26 for We are [going to] send the she-camel as a trial for them, so watch them and be patient. 27 And tell them that the water is to be divided between them: Each one's right to drink being brought forward (by suitable turns). 28 But they called their companion who took a sword and hamstrung her. 29 Ah! how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning! 30 We loosed against them one Cry, and they were as the wattles of a pen-builder. 31 And in truth We have made the Qur'an easy to remember; but is there any that remembereth? 32 The people of Lut denied the Noble Messengers. 33 [and so,] behold, We let loose upon them a deadly tempest; and only Lot 's kinsfolk did We save at the break of dawn, 34 as a blessing from Us: thus do We reward all who are grateful. 35 And he [Lout (Lot)] indeed had warned them of Our Grasp, but they did doubt the warnings! 36 And they tried to persuade him regarding his guests – We therefore blinded their eyes, “So taste My punishment, and My warnings.” 37 And at daybreak a determined punishment came upon them. 38 So taste My punishment and warning. 39 And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? 40
