Nor can ye frustrate (aught), (fleeing) through the earth; nor have ye, besides Allah, any one to protect or to help. (31)

And among His Signs are the ships, smooth-running through the ocean, (tall) as mountains. (32)

If it be His Will He can still the Wind: then would they become motionless on the back of the (ocean). Verily in this are Signs for everyone who patiently perseveres and is grateful. (33)

Or He can cause them to perish because of the (evil) which (the men) have earned; but much doth He forgive. (34)

But let those know, who dispute about Our Signs, that there is for them no way of escape. (35)

Whatever ye are given (here) is (but) a convenience of this life: but that which is with Allah is better and more lasting: (it is) for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord: (36)

Those who avoid the greater crimes and shameful deeds, and, when they are angry even then forgive; (37)

Those who hearken to their Lord, and establish regular Prayer; who (conduct) their affairs by mutual Consultation; who spend out of what We bestow on them for Sustenance; (38)

And those who, when an oppressive wrong is inflicted on them, (are not cowed but) help and defend themselves. (39)

The recompense for an injury is an injury equal thereto (in degree): but if a person forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from Allah: for (Allah) loveth not those who do wrong. (40)
