"When We inspired your mother with that which We inspired. (38) "Saying: 'Put him
(the child) into the Tabût (a box or a case or a chest) and put it into the
river (Nile), then the river shall cast it up on the bank, and there, an enemy
of Mine and an enemy of his shall take him.' And I endued you with love from
Me, in order that you may be brought up under My Eye, (39) "When your
sister went and said: 'Shall I show you one who will nurse him?' So We restored
you to your mother, that she might cool her eyes and she should not grieve.
Then you did kill a man, but We saved you from great distress and tried you
with a heavy trial. Then you stayed a number of years with the people of Madyan
(Midian). Then you came here according to the fixed term which I ordained (for
you), O Mûsa (Moses)! (40) "And I have chosen you[] for Myself. (41) "Go you and your
brother with My Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations,
etc.), and do not, you both, slacken and become weak in My Remembrance. (42) "Go, both of
you, to Fir'aun (Pharaoh), verily, he has transgressed (all bounds in disbelief
and disobedience and behaved as an arrogant and as a tyrant) (43) "And speak to
him mildly, perhaps he may accept admonition or fear (Allâh)." (44) They said: "Our
Lord! Verily! We fear lest he should hasten to punish us or lest he should
transgress (all bounds against us)." (45) He (Allâh) said:
"Fear not, verily! I am with you both, hearing and seeing. (46) "So go you both
to him, and say: 'Verily, we are Messengers of your Lord, so let the Children
of Israel go with us, and torment them not; indeed, we have come with a sign
from your Lord! And peace will be upon him who follows the guidance! (47) 'Truly, it has been
revealed to us that the torment will be for him who denies [believes not in the
Oneness of Allâh, and in His Messengers], and turns away.'(from the truth and
obedience of Allâh)" (48) Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "Who then, O
Mûsa (Moses), is the Lord of you two?" (49) [Mûsa (Moses)] said:
"Our Lord is He Who gave to each thing its form and nature, then guided it
aright." (50) [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] said: "What about the generations of
old?" (51)
