Nuh said: my Lord! verily they have disobeyed me and followed them whose riches and children have only increased them in loss. 21 And they have plotted a mighty plot, 22 They said: “Do not abandon your deities; do not abandon Wadd, nor Suwa, nor Yaghuth, nor Yauq, nor Nasr. 23 And already they have misled many. And, [my Lord], do not increase the wrongdoers 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 (Noah) said: "My Lord! Leave not one of the disbelievers on the earth! 26 If you leave them, they will lead Your creatures astray, and beget but iniquitous and ungrateful offspring. 27 Lord, forgive me, my parents, the believers who have entered my home and all believing men and women. Give nothing to the unjust but destruction. 28
