۞ Then We revealed Our will to Moses, saying, "Set forth with My servants, in the night, for you will surely be pursued." 52 Then Pharaoh sent gatherers to the cities. 53 "These," they said, "are only a small band, 54 And lo! they are offenders against us. 55 We are warning all of you about them." 56 So We made them leave their gardens and springs, 57 And treasures and honorable station - 58 Thus we let the Israelites inherit them all. 59 So they pursued them at sunrise. 60 So when the two hosts saw each other, the companions of Musa cried out: Most surely we are being overtaken. 61 He said: Nay, verily! for lo! my Lord is with me. He will guide me. 62 Thereupon We inspired Moses thus: Strike the sea with thy staff!" - whereupon it parted, and each part appeared like a mountain vast. 63 We also brought the other party close to the same spot, 64 We delivered Moses and all those who were with him, 65 But We drowned the others. 66 Surely in that there is a sign; yet most of them do not believe: 67 And verily thy Lord is He, the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful. 68
