۞ And We inspired to Moses, "Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued." 52 Then Fir'awn sent unto the cities callers: 53 Verily these are but a band small. 54 And lo! they are offenders against us. 55 “And indeed we are an alert army.” 56 Thus did We take them away from gardens and watersprings, 57 and [deprived them of their erstwhile] station of honour!" 58 even so, and We bequeathed them upon the Children of Israel. 59 Then they followed them at the sunrise; 60 and as soon as the two hosts came in sight of one another, the followers of Moses exclaimed: "Behold, we shall certainly be overtaken [and defeated]!" 61 [Musa (Moses)] said: "Nay, verily! With me is my Lord, He will guide me." 62 Then We bade Moses strike the sea with his staff. And it parted, and each part was like a huge mountain. 63 And there We brought the others on, 64 And We saved Musa (Moses) and all those with him. 65 then, We drowned the others. 66 Surely in that there is a sign; yet most of them do not believe: 67 And verily thy Lord is He, the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful. 68
