۞ We revealed to Moses: "Set forth with My servants by night for you will be pursued." 52 Then Pharaoh sent heralds to (all) the Cities, 53 'These' they said, 'are a small band, 54 "And they are raging furiously against us; 55 "But we are host all assembled, amply forewarned." 56 Thus did We take them away from gardens and watersprings, 57 And treasures and goodly dwellings, 58 even so, and We bequeathed them upon the Children of Israel. 59 And they overtook them at sunrise. 60 And when the two hosts saw each other, those with Moses said: Lo! we are indeed caught. 61 Said he, 'No indeed; surely my Lord is with me; He will guide me.' 62 Then We revealed to Musa: Strike the sea with your staff. So it had cloven asunder, and each part was like a huge mound. 63 And We made the other party approach thither. 64 And We saved Musa and those with him, all of them. 65 and then We caused the others to drown. 66 Surely in that is a sign, yet most of them are not believers. 67 And lo, thy Lord! He is indeed the Mighty, the Merciful. 68
