[And] Noah continued: "O my Sustainer! Behold, they have opposed me [throughout,] for they follow people whose wealth and children lead them increasingly into ruin, 21 "And they have devised a tremendous Plot. 22 and said: 'Do not renounce your gods, do not leave waddan or suwa'an or yaghutha, or ya'uqa, or nasra' 23 And they have led many astray. (Noah supplicated saying): 'Allah, do not increase the harmdoers except in error' 24 Because of their sins, they were drowned and made to enter hell. They could find no one to help them besides God. 25 And Nuh said: My Lord! leave not upon the land any dweller from among the unbelievers: 26 If Thou shouldst leave them, they will mislead Thy slaves and will beget none save lewd ingrates. 27 O Lord, forgive me, my parents, and any one who enters my house as a believer, and all believing men and women, and do not give the evil-doers increase save in ruin. 28
