[Musa (Moses)] said: "O my Lord! Open for me my chest (grant me self-confidence, contentment, and boldness). 25 And make my mission easy. 26 Remove the defect of my tongue 27 “In order that they may understand my speech.” 28 Appoint for me a henchman from my folk, 29 “That is Haroon, my brother.” 30 Add Thou through him to my strength, 31 “And make him a partner in my task.” 32 so that we may glorify You much 33 "And remember Thee without stint: 34 Verily, Thou seest all that is within us!" 35 He answered: "Granted is your prayer, O Moses. 36 “And indeed We had bestowed upon you a favour one more time.” 37 Recall, when We indicated to your mother through inspiration: 38 Place him in a chest and throw it into the river, and thereupon the river will cast him ashore, [and] one who is an enemy unto Me and an enemy unto him will adopt him. "And [thus early] I spread Mine Own love over thee - and [this] in order that thou might be formed under Mine eye. 39 when thy sister went out, saying, "Shall I point you to one to have charge of him?"
