The Thamud rejected the warnings, 23 and said, 'What, shall we follow a mortal, one out of ourselves? Then indeed we should be in error and insanity! 24 Out of all of us has the Reminder been given to him alone? Rather, he is indeed an arrogant liar' 25 They shall know tomorrow whichsoever is a liar insolent. 26 Behold, [O Salih] We are letting loose this she-camel as a test for them; and thou but watch them, and contain thyself in patience. 27 Tell them that the water is to be divided between them, a drink each for them in turn' 28 But they called their companion, so he took (the sword) and slew (her). 29 Ah! how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning! 30 Indeed We sent upon them a single Scream – thereupon they became like the barrier builder’s residual dry trampled hay. 31 Indeed, We have made the Quran easy to learn lessons from.
