Noah said, "My Lord, indeed they have disobeyed me and followed him whose wealth and children will not increase him except in loss. 21 And they contrived a plot of great magnitude, 22 and said: 'Do not renounce your gods, do not leave waddan or suwa'an or yaghutha, or ya'uqa, or nasra' 23 And they have led many astray, and Thou increasest the wrong-doers in naught save error. 24 They were drowned and sent to Hell for their misdeeds; they found no one to help them against God. 25 Noah prayed, "O my Lord! Do not leave on earth a single one of those who deny the truth -- 26 If Thou shouldst leave them, they will mislead Thy slaves and will beget none save lewd ingrates. 27 My Lord, forgive me and my parents and whosoever enters my house as a believer, and the believers, men and women alike; and do Thou not increase the evildoers save in ruin!' 28
