قَالَتْ لَهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ اِنْ نَّحْنُ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ وَ لٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَمُنُّ عَلٰی مَنْ یَّشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖ ؕ وَ مَا كَانَ لَنَاۤ اَنْ نَّاْتِیَكُمْ بِسُلْطٰنٍ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِ اللّٰهِ ؕ وَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ فَلْیَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ۝۱۱

Their apostles said to them: "Indeed we are men like you, but God bestows His favours on whomsoever He wills among His creatures. It is not in our power to bring a miracle for you without the leave of God. The believers should only place their trust in God.

وَ مَا لَنَاۤ اَلَّا نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ وَ قَدْ هَدٰىنَا سُبُلَنَا ؕ وَ لَنَصْبِرَنَّ عَلٰی مَاۤ اٰذَیْتُمُوْنَا ؕ وَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ فَلْیَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُوْنَ۠۝۱۲

And why should we not repose our trust in God when He has shown us our paths of duty to Him? We shall bear with fortitude the hardships you inflict upon us. The trusting place their trust in God."

وَ قَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا لِرُسُلِهِمْ لَنُخْرِجَنَّكُمْ مِّنْ اَرْضِنَاۤ اَوْ لَتَعُوْدُنَّ فِیْ مِلَّتِنَا ؕ فَاَوْحٰۤی اِلَیْهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ لَنُهْلِكَنَّ الظّٰلِمِیْنَۙ۝۱۳

The unbelievers said to their apostles: "We shall drive you out of our land, or else you come back to our fold." Their Lord then communicated to them: "We shall annihilate these wicked people,

وَ لَنُسْكِنَنَّكُمُ الْاَرْضَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ ؕ ذٰلِكَ لِمَنْ خَافَ مَقَامِیْ وَ خَافَ وَعِیْدِ۝۱۴

And establish you in their place. This is for him who fears My station, and dreads My commination."

وَ اسْتَفْتَحُوْا وَ خَابَ كُلُّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِیْدٍۙ۝۱۵

Then (the apostles) asked of God´s assistance, and every arrogant tyrant was frustrated:

مِّنْ وَّرَآىِٕهٖ جَهَنَّمُ وَ یُسْقٰی مِنْ مَّآءٍ صَدِیْدٍۙ۝۱۶

Before him is Hell, and he will get putrid liquid to drink.

یَّتَجَرَّعُهٗ وَ لَا یَكَادُ یُسِیْغُهٗ وَ یَاْتِیْهِ الْمَوْتُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَّ مَا هُوَ بِمَیِّتٍ ؕ وَ مِنْ وَّرَآىِٕهٖ عَذَابٌ غَلِیْظٌ۝۱۷

He will sip it, yet will not be able to gulp it down. Death will crowd in upon him from every side, but die he will not. A terrible torment trails him.

مَثَلُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِرَبِّهِمْ اَعْمَالُهُمْ كَرَمَادِ ِ۟اشْتَدَّتْ بِهِ الرِّیْحُ فِیْ یَوْمٍ عَاصِفٍ ؕ لَا یَقْدِرُوْنَ مِمَّا كَسَبُوْا عَلٰی شَیْءٍ ؕ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلٰلُ الْبَعِیْدُ۝۱۸

Like ashes are the deeds of those who deny their Lord, which the wind blows away on a windy day. They shall have no power over what they earned. This is the farthest limit of going astray.

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ ؕ اِنْ یَّشَاْ یُذْهِبْكُمْ وَ یَاْتِ بِخَلْقٍ جَدِیْدٍۙ۝۱۹

Do you not see that God has created the heavens and the earth with ultimate reason? If He so wills He could take you away from the earth and raise a new creation (in your place).

وَّ مَا ذٰلِكَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ بِعَزِیْزٍ۝۲۰

This is well within the power of God.
