Surah The Poets

قَوۡمَ فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ أَلَا يَتَّقُونَ

The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allah

قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ

He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me

وَيَضِيقُ صَدۡرِي وَلَا يَنطَلِقُ لِسَانِي فَأَرۡسِلۡ إِلَىٰ هَٰرُونَ

And that my breast will tighten and my tongue will not be fluent, so send for Aaron

وَلَهُمۡ عَلَيَّ ذَنۢبٞ فَأَخَافُ أَن يَقۡتُلُونِ

And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me

[Pharaoh] said, "Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life

وَفَعَلۡتَ فَعۡلَتَكَ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلۡتَ وَأَنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

And [then] you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful

قَالَ فَعَلۡتُهَآ إِذٗا وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ

[Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray
