16. Nahl · verses 46–47

سورة النحل
46

أَوۡ يَأۡخُذَهُمۡ فِي تَقَلُّبِهِمۡ فَمَا هُم بِمُعۡجِزِينَ

Aw yakhuthahum fee taqallubihim fama hum bimuAAjizeena

Or that He may not call them to account in the midst of their goings to and fro, without a chance of their frustrating Him?-

47

أَوۡ يَأۡخُذَهُمۡ عَلَىٰ تَخَوُّفٖ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكُمۡ لَرَءُوفٞ رَّحِيمٌ

Aw yakhuthahum AAala takhawwufin fainna rabbakum laraoofun raheemun

Or that He may not call them to account by a process of slow wastage - for thy Lord is indeed full of kindness and mercy.
