20:5The Most Merciful; on the Throne He settled.

20:8God, there is no god but He, His are the Most Beautiful Names.

20:10When he saw a fire, he said to his family, “Stay; I have noticed a fire; Perhaps I can bring you a torch therefrom, or find some guidance by the fire.”

20:14I—I am God. There is no God but I. So serve Me, and practice the prayer for My remembrance.

20:20So he threw it—thereupon it became a moving serpent.

20:22And press your hand to your side; it will come out white, without a blemish—another sign.

20:23That We may show you some of Our greatest signs.

20:25He said, “My Lord, put my heart at peace for me.

20:26And ease my task for me.

20:29And appoint an assistant for me, from my family.

20:31Strengthen me with him.

20:34And remember You much.

20:37We had favored you another time.

20:39`Put him in the chest; then cast him into the river. The river will wash him to shore, where an enemy of Mine and an enemy of his will pick him up. And I have bestowed upon you love from Me, so that you may be reared before My eye.

20:40When your sister walked along, and said, ‘Shall I tell you about someone who will take care of him?' So We returned you to your mother, that she may be comforted, and not sorrow. And you killed a person, but We saved you from stress; and We tested you thoroughly. And you stayed years among the people of Median. Then you came back, as ordained, O Moses.

20:42Go, you and your brother, with My signs, and do not neglect My remembrance.

20:44But speak to him nicely. Perhaps he will remember, or have some fear.”

20:45They said, “Lord, we fear he may persecute us, or become violent.”

20:47Approach him and say, `We are the messengers of your Lord; so let the Children of Israel go with us, and do not torment them. We bring you a sign from your Lord, and peace be upon him who follows guidance.

20:48It was revealed to us that the punishment falls upon him who disbelieves and turns away.'“

20:55From it We created you, and into it We will return you, and from it We will bring you out another time.

20:57He said, “Did you come to us to drive us out of our land with your magic, O Moses?

20:58We will produce for you magic like it; so make an appointment between us and you, which we will not miss—neither us, nor you—in a central place.”

20:59He said, “Your appointment is the day of the festival, so let the people be gathered together at mid-morning.”

20:60Pharaoh turned away, put together his plan, and then came back.

20:61Moses said to them, “Woe to you. Do not fabricate lies against God, or He will destroy you with a punishment. He who invents lies will fail.”

20:64So settle your plan, and come as one front. Today, whoever gains the upper hand will succeed.”

20:71He said, “Did you believe in him before I have given you permission? He must be your chief, who has taught you magic. I will cut off your hands and your feet on alternate sides, and I will crucify you on the trunks of the palm-trees. Then you will know which of us is more severe in punishment, and more lasting.”

20:72They said, “We will not prefer you to the proofs that have come to us, and Him who created us. So issue whatever judgment you wish to issue. You can only rule in this lowly life.

20:74Whoever comes to his Lord guilty, for him is Hell, where he neither dies nor lives.

20:75But whoever comes to Him a believer, having worked righteousness—these will have the highest ranks.

20:78Pharaoh pursued them with his troops, but the sea overwhelmed them, and completely engulfed them.

20:86So Moses returned to his people, angry and disappointed. He said, “O my people, did your Lord not promise you a good promise? Was the time too long for you? Or did you want wrath from your Lord to descend upon you, so you broke your promise to me?”

20:87They said, “We did not break our promise to you by our choice, but we were made to carry loads of the people’s ornaments, and we cast them in. That was what the Samarian suggested.”

20:88So he produced for them a calf—a mere body which lowed. And they said, “This is your god, and the god of Moses, but he has forgotten.”

20:90Aaron had said to them before, “O my people, you are being tested by this. And your Lord is the Merciful, so follow me, and obey my command.”

20:93From following me? Did you disobey my command?”

20:94He said, “Son of my mother, do not seize me by my beard or my head. I feared you would say, `You have caused division among the Children of Israel, and did not regard my word.'“

20:96He said, “I saw what they did not see, so I grasped a handful from the Messenger’s traces, and I flung it away. Thus my soul prompted me.”

20:97He said, “Begone! Your lot in this life is to say, ‘No contact.’ And you have an appointment that you will not miss. Now look at your god that you remained devoted to—we will burn it up, and then blow it away into the sea, as powder.”

20:99Thus We narrate to you reports of times gone by; and We have given you a message from Our Presence.

20:108On that Day, they will follow the caller, without any deviation. Voices will be hushed before the Merciful, and you will hear nothing but murmur.

20:109On that Day, intercession will not avail, except for him permitted by the Merciful, and whose words He has approved.

20:113Thus We have revealed it an Arabic Quran, and We have diversified the warnings in it, that perhaps they would become righteous, or it may produce a lesson for them.

20:114Exalted is God, the True King. Do not be hasty with the Quran before its inspiration to you is concluded, and say, “My Lord, increase me in knowledge.”

20:121And so they ate from it; whereupon their bodies became visible to them, and they started covering themselves with the leaves of the Garden. Thus Adam disobeyed his Lord, and fell.

20:123He said, “Go down from it, altogether; some of you enemies of some others. But whenever guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance, will not go astray, nor suffer.

20:125He will say, “My Lord, why did You raise me blind, though I was seeing?”

20:126He will say, “Just as Our revelations came to you, and you forgot them, today you will be forgotten.”

20:127Thus We recompense him who transgresses and does not believe in the revelations of his Lord. The punishment of the Hereafter is more severe, and more lasting.

20:128Is it not instructive to them, how many generations before them We destroyed, in whose settlements they walk? Surely in that are signs for people of understanding.

20:131And do not extend your glance towards what We have given some classes of them to enjoy—the splendor of the life of this world—that We may test them thereby. Your Lord’s provision is better, and more lasting.

20:133And they say, “Why does he not bring us a miracle from his Lord?” Were they not given enough miracles in the former scriptures?

20:134Had We destroyed them with a punishment before him, they would have said, “Our Lord, if only You had sent us a messenger, we would have followed Your revelations before we were humiliated and disgraced.”
