وَلَقَدۡ يَسَّرۡنَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ لِلذِّكۡرِ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرٖ

Walaqad yassarna alqurana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

And We have indeed made the Qur´an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ لُوطِۭ بِٱلنُّذُرِ

Kaththabat qawmu lootin bialnnuthuri

The people of Lut rejected (his) warning.

إِنَّآ أَرۡسَلۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَاصِبًا إِلَّآ ءَالَ لُوطٖۖ نَّجَّيۡنَٰهُم بِسَحَرٖ

Inna arsalna AAalayhim hasiban illa ala lootin najjaynahum bisaharin

We sent against them a violent Tornado with showers of stones, (which destroyed them), except Lut´s household: them We delivered by early Dawn,-

نِّعۡمَةٗ مِّنۡ عِندِنَاۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي مَن شَكَرَ

NiAAmatan min AAindina kathalika najzee man shakara

As a Grace from Us: thus do We reward those who give thanks.

وَلَقَدۡ أَنذَرَهُم بَطۡشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوۡاْ بِٱلنُّذُرِ

Walaqad antharahum batshatana fatamaraw bialnnuthuri

And (Lut) did warn them of Our Punishment, but they disputed about the Warning.

وَلَقَدۡ رَٰوَدُوهُ عَن ضَيۡفِهِۦ فَطَمَسۡنَآ أَعۡيُنَهُمۡ فَذُوقُواْ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ

Walaqad rawadoohu AAan dayfihi fatamasna aAAyunahum fathooqoo AAathabee wanuthuri

And they even sought to snatch away his guests from him, but We blinded their eyes. (They heard:) "Now taste ye My Wrath and My Warning."

وَلَقَدۡ صَبَّحَهُم بُكۡرَةً عَذَابٞ مُّسۡتَقِرّٞ

Walaqad sabbahahum bukratan AAathabun mustaqirrun

Early on the morrow an abiding Punishment seized them:

فَذُوقُواْ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ

Fathooqoo AAathabee wanuthuri

"So taste ye My Wrath and My Warning."

وَلَقَدۡ يَسَّرۡنَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ لِلذِّكۡرِ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرٖ

Walaqad yassarna alqurana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

And We have indeed made the Qur´an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

وَلَقَدۡ جَآءَ ءَالَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ ٱلنُّذُرُ

Walaqad jaa ala firAAawna alnnuthuru

To the People of Pharaoh, too, aforetime, came Warners (from Allah).

كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كُلِّهَا فَأَخَذۡنَٰهُمۡ أَخۡذَ عَزِيزٖ مُّقۡتَدِرٍ

Kaththaboo biayatina kulliha faakhathnahum akhtha AAazeezin muqtadirin

The (people) rejected all Our Signs; but We seized them with such Penalty (as comes) from One Exalted in Power, able to carry out His Will.

أَكُفَّارُكُمۡ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡ أُوْلَٰٓئِكُمۡ أَمۡ لَكُم بَرَآءَةٞ فِي ٱلزُّبُرِ

Akuffarukum khayrun min olaikum am lakum baraatun fee alzzuburi

Are your Unbelievers, (O Quraish), better than they? Or have ye an immunity in the Sacred Books?
