FaAAasaw rasoola rabbihim faakhathahum akhthatan rabiyatan

And disobeyed (each) the messenger of their Lord; so He punished them with an abundant Penalty.

إِنَّا لَمَّا طَغَا ٱلۡمَآءُ حَمَلۡنَٰكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡجَارِيَةِ

Inna lamma tagha almao hamalnakum fee aljariyati

We, when the water (of Noah´s Flood) overflowed beyond its limits, carried you (mankind), in the floating (Ark),

لِنَجۡعَلَهَا لَكُمۡ تَذۡكِرَةٗ وَتَعِيَهَآ أُذُنٞ وَٰعِيَةٞ

LinajAAalaha lakum tathkiratan wataAAiyaha othunun waAAiyatun

That We might make it a Message unto you, and that ears (that should hear the tale and) retain its memory should bear its (lessons) in remembrance.
