'Lord' said Moses, 'expand my chest, 25 and ease my task for me. 26 And untie the knot from my tongue 27 That they may understand my speech. 28 And give me as assistant from my family 29 Aaron my brother 30 To strengthen me 31 and let him share my task 32 That we may exalt You much 33 And may make mention of Thee oft. 34 "For Thou art He that (ever) regardeth us." 35 He said: You are indeed granted your petition, O Musa 36 And certainly We bestowed on you a favor at another time; 37 When We told your mother what We relate: 38 Place him in a chest and throw it into the river, and thereupon the river will cast him ashore, [and] one who is an enemy unto Me and an enemy unto him will adopt him. "And [thus early] I spread Mine Own love over thee - and [this] in order that thou might be formed under Mine eye. 39 Recall when your sister walked along and said, "Shall I guide you to one who will take care of him?"

He has sent water from the sky to produce various pairs of plants. 53 Eat [therefrom] and pasture your livestock. Indeed, in that are signs for those of intelligence. 54
