M. H. Shakir, The Holy Quran; Arabic Text and English Translation; Foot-notes by M. H. Shakir (1974)

14. And they have a crime against me, therefore I fear that they may slay me.

15. He said: By no means, so go you both with Our signs; surely We are with you, hearing:

16. Then come to Firon and say: Surely we are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds:

17. That send with us the children of Israel.

18. (Firon) said: Did we not bring you up as a. child among us, and you tarried among us for (many) years of your life:

19. And you did (that) deed of yours which you did, and you are one of the ungrateful.

20. He said: I did it then while I was of those unable to see the right course:

21. So I fled from you when I feared you, then my Lord granted me wisdom and made me of the apostles:

22. And is it a favour of which you remind me that you have enslaved the children of Israel?

23. Firon said: And what is the Lord of the worlds?

24. He said: The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, if you would be sure.

25. (Firon) said to those around him: Do you not hear?

26. He said: Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of old.
