Sura 26: AL-SHUARA (THE POETS) - Juz' 19 - Translation Qarib

فَجُمِعَ السَّحَرَةُ لِمِيقَاتِ يَوْمٍ مَعْلُومٍ ﴿۳۸﴾
The sorcerers were gathered at the appointed time on a wellknown day, (38)
وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُجْتَمِعُونَ ﴿۳۹﴾
and the people were asked: 'Will you gather (39)
لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ السَّحَرَةَ إِنْ كَانُوا هُمُ الْغَالِبِينَ ﴿۴۰﴾
in order that we shall follow the sorcerers if they are the victors. ' (40)
فَلَمَّا جَاءَ السَّحَرَةُ قَالُوا لِفِرْعَوْنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجْرًا إِنْ كُنَّا نَحْنُ الْغَالِبِينَ ﴿۴۱﴾
Then, when the sorcerers came to Pharaoh, they said: 'Shall we receive a wage if we win? ' (41)
قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِذًا لَمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ ﴿۴۲﴾
'Yes, indeed' he answered, 'and you shall become among those who are near stationed. ' (42)
قَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى أَلْقُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ مُلْقُونَ ﴿۴۳﴾
Moses said to them: 'Cast down what you cast. ' (43)
فَأَلْقَوْا حِبَالَهُمْ وَعِصِيَّهُمْ وَقَالُوا بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْغَالِبُونَ ﴿۴۴﴾
So they cast their ropes and staffs, saying: 'By Pharaoh's might, we shall be the victors. ' (44)
فَأَلْقَى مُوسَى عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلْقَفُ مَا يَأْفِكُونَ ﴿۴۵﴾
Then Moses cast down his staff and it swallowed up their lying invention, (45)
فَأُلْقِيَ السَّحَرَةُ سَاجِدِينَ ﴿۴۶﴾
so the sorcerers were cast down, prostrating themselves, (46)
قَالُوا آمَنَّا بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ﴿۴۷﴾
saying: 'We believe in the Lord of the Worlds, (47)
