We sent Moses with Our signs to the Pharaoh and his nobles. He said: "I have been sent by the Lord of all the worlds." 46 But when he showed them Our signs they laughed at them, 47 And not a sign We shewed them but it was greater than the like thereof; and We laid hold of them with the torment that haply they might turn. 48 And they said, “O you magician! Pray for us to your Lord, by the means of His covenant which is with you; we will certainly come to guidance.” 49 But whenever We removed the suffering from them, lo! they would break their word. 50 And Firon proclaimed amongst his people: O my people! is not the kingdom of Egypt mine? And these rivers flow beneath me; do you not then see? 51 “Or that I am better than him, for he is lowly – and he does not seem to talk plainly.” 52 "And then - why have no golden armlets been bestowed on him? or why have no angels come together with him?" 53 Then he incited his people and they obeyed him; verily they were ever a transgressing people. 54 Then when they displeased Us, We inflicted a retribution on them, so We drowned them all together, 55 So We made them a bygone fable and a lesson for the latter generations. 56
