89. Fexhr · verses 10–14

وَفِرۡعَوۡنَ ذِي ٱلۡأَوۡتَادِ

WafirAAawna thee alawtadi

And with Pharaoh, lord of stakes?

ٱلَّذِينَ طَغَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡبِلَٰدِ

Allatheena taghaw fee albiladi

(All) these transgressed beyond bounds in the lands,

فَأَكۡثَرُواْ فِيهَا ٱلۡفَسَادَ

Faaktharoo feeha alfasada

And heaped therein mischief (on mischief).

فَصَبَّ عَلَيۡهِمۡ رَبُّكَ سَوۡطَ عَذَابٍ

Fasabba AAalayhim rabbuka sawta AAathabin

Therefore did thy Lord pour on them a scourge of diverse chastisements:

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِٱلۡمِرۡصَادِ

Inna rabbaka labialmirsadi

For thy Lord is (as a Guardian) on a watch-tower.
