(Saying:) Go thou unto Pharaoh - Lo! he hath rebelled - (۱۷)

And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace)? (۱۸)

Then I will guide thee to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him). (۱۹)

And he showed him the tremendous token. (۲۰)

But he denied and disobeyed, (۲۱)

Then turned he away in haste, (۲۲)

Then gathered he and summoned (۲۳)

And proclaimed: "I (Pharaoh) am your Lord the Highest." (۲۴)

So Allah seized him (and made him) an example for the after (life) and for the former. (۲۵)

Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for him who feareth. (۲۶)
