Noah said: “My Lord, they did not pay heed to what I said, and followed those (nobles) whose possession of wealth and children has led them to an even greater loss. 21 “And they carried out a very sinister scheme.” 22 and they said [to their followers], "Do not ever abandon your deities: abandon neither Wadd, nor Suwa', and neither Yaghuth, nor Yauq nor Nasr!" 23 And they have led many astray, and Thou increasest the wrong-doers in naught save error. 24 And because of their misdeeds they were drowned, and then they were made to enter a Fire. Then they found not for themselves, beside Allah, any helpers. 25 Noah said: "O Lord, do not leave a single habitation of unbelievers on the earth. 26 if You do, they will mislead Your servants and will only give birth to ungrateful sinners. 27 O Lord, forgive me, my parents, and any one who enters my house as a believer, and all believing men and women, and do not give the evil-doers increase save in ruin. 28
