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

11. What! when we are rotten bones?

12. They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.

13. But it shall be only single cry,

14. When lol they shall be wakeful.

15. Has not there come to you the story of Musa?

16. When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,

17. Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.

18. Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:

19. And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.

20. So he showed him the mighty sign.

21. But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.

22. Then he went back hastily.

23. Then he gathered (men) and called out.

24. Then he said: I am your Lord, the most High.

25. So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.

26. Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.

Section 2

27. Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.
