To those who inherit the earth in succession to its (previous) possessors, is it not a guiding, (lesson) that, if We so willed, We could punish them (too) for their sins, and seal up their hearts so that they could not hear? 100 Those villages We narrate their news to you. Their Messengers came to them with clear proofs, yet they would not believe what they had belied before; as such Allah seals the hearts of the unbelievers. 101 We found no covenant in the most part of them; indeed, We found the most part of them ungodly. 102 Then after them We sent Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they wrongfully rejected them: So see what was the end of those who made mischief. 103 Moses said: 'Pharaoh, I am a Messenger from the Lord of the Worlds, 104 incumbent upon me is that I say nothing of Allah except the truth. I bring you a clear proof from your Lord. So let the Children of Israel depart with me' 105 He said: "If you have brought a sign then display it, if what you say is true." 106 So he cast his staff; and behold, it was a serpent manifest. 107 And he drew out his hand; thereupon it was white [with radiance] for the observers. 108
