Serve Allah, you have no other god than Him Indeed I fear for you the chastisement of an awesome Day.' 59 The chiefs of his people said: Most surely we see you in clear error. 60 Said he, 'My people, there is no error in me; but I am a Messenger from the Lord of all Being.' 61 I convey unto you the messages of my Lord and give good counsel unto you, and know from Allah that which ye know not. 62 "Do ye wonder that there hath come to you a message from your Lord, through a man of your own people, to warn you,- so that ye may fear Allah and haply receive His Mercy?" 63 In response they denied him, so We rescued him and those with him in the ship, and We drowned those who denied Our signs; indeed they were a blind group. 64
