Noah's Mission and Warning
1 We sent Noah to his people saying Warn your people before a painful punishment comes to them
2 He said O my people I am a clear warner to you
3 Worship God and fear Him and obey me
4 He will forgive you your sins and delay you for a specified term Indeed when God's term comes it cannot be postponed if you only knew
Noah's Persistent Preaching
5 He said My Lord I have called my people night and day
6 But my call only increased their flight
7 And every time I called them that You might forgive them they put their fingers in their ears covered themselves with their garments persisted and were arrogant with pride
8 Then I called them openly
9 Then I announced to them and confided to them secretly
10 And I said Ask forgiveness from your Lord Indeed He is ever Forgiving
11 He will send rain to you in abundance
12 And provide you with wealth and children and make for you gardens and make for you rivers
13 What is wrong with you that you do not attribute to God due grandeur
14 While He has created you in stages
15 Do you not see how God has created seven heavens in layers
16 And made the moon therein a light and made the sun a lamp
17 And God has caused you to grow from the earth a growth
18 Then He will return you into it and extract you another extraction
19 And God has made for you the earth an expanse
20 That you may follow therein wide paths
People's Rejection and Conspiracy
21 Noah said My Lord they have disobeyed me and followed those whose wealth and children only increase them in loss
22 And they have plotted a mighty plot
23 And they said Do not abandon your gods and do not abandon Wadd or Suwa or Yaghuth and Yauq and Nasr
24 And they have misled many and do not increase the wrongdoers except in error
Punishment of the Disbelievers
25 Because of their sins they were drowned and made to enter Fire and they found no helpers besides God
Noah's Final Prayer
26 Noah said Lord do not leave on the earth any inhabitant from the disbelievers
27 Indeed if You leave them they will mislead Your servants and not beget except wicked disbelievers
28 My Lord forgive me and my parents and whoever enters my house as a believer and the believing men and believing women and do not increase the wrongdoers except in destruction
