[42:32]

And of His portents are the ships, like banners on the sea;

[42:33]

If He will He calmeth the wind so that they keep still upon its surface - Lo! herein verily are signs for every steadfast grateful (heart). -

[42:34]

Or He causeth them to perish on account of that which they have earned - And He forgiveth much -

[42:35]

And that those who argue concerning Our revelations may know they have no refuge.

[42:36]

Now whatever ye have been given is but a passing comfort for the life of the world, and that which Allah hath is better and more lasting for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord,

[42:37]

And those who shun the worst of sins and indecencies and, when they are wroth, forgive,

[42:38]

And those who answer the call of their Lord and establish worship, and whose affairs are a matter of counsel, and who spend of what We have bestowed on them,

[42:39]

And those who, when great wrong is done to them, defend themselves,

[42:40]

The guerdon of an ill-deed is an ill the like thereof. But whosoever pardoneth and amendeth, his wage is the affair of Allah. Lo! He loveth not wrong-doers.

[42:41]

And whoso defendeth himself after he hath suffered wrong - for such, there is no way (of blame) against them.

[42:42]

The way (of blame) is only against those who oppress mankind, and wrongfully rebel in the earth. For such there is a painful doom.

[42:43]

And verily whoso is patient and forgiveth - lo! that, verily, is (of) the steadfast heart of things.

[42:44]

He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there is no protecting friend after Him. And thou (Muhammad) wilt see the evil-doers when they see the doom, (how) they say: Is there any way of return ?
