Moses said: "O my Lord, enlarge my breast, 25 and make my task easy for me. 26 and loosen the knot from my tongue 27 so that they may understand my speech, 28 and appoint for me, out of my kinsfolk, one who will help me to bear my burden: 29 "Aaron, my brother; 30 “Back me up with him.” 31 And let him share my task, 32 That we may glorify Thee much 33 "And remember Thee without stint: 34 Indeed, You are of us ever Seeing." 35 Allah said: "You are granted your request, O Musa (Moses)! 36 It is the second time that We have bestowed upon you Our favor. 37 When We inspired unto thy mother that which We inspired, 38 "'Put him into a chest, then cast it into the river.
