M. H. Shakir, The Holy Quran; Arabic Text and English Translation; Foot-notes by M. H. Shakir (1974)
97. By Allah! we were certainly in manifest error,
98. When we made you equal to the Lord of the worlds:
99. And none but the guilty led us astray:
100. So we have no intercessors,
101. Nor a true friend:
102. But if we could but once return, we would be of the believers.
103. Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe.
104. And most surely your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful.
105. The people of Nuh rejected the apostles.
106. When their brother Nuh said to them: Will you not guard (against evil)?
107. Surely I am a faithful apostle to you:
108. Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me:
109. And I do not ask you any reward for it; my reward is only with the Lord of the worlds:
110. So guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me.
111. They said: Shall we believe in you while the meanest follow you?*
112. He said: And what knowledge have I of what they do?
113. Their account is only with my Lord, if you could perceive:
114. And I am not going to drive away the believers:
* This has been a patent argument of the arrogant with believers.
