10. And [mention] when your Lord called Moses, [saying], "Go to the wrongdoing people - 11. The people of Pharaoh. Will they not fear Allāh?" 12. He said, "My Lord, indeed I fear that they will deny me 13. And that my breast will tighten and my tongue will not be fluent, so send for Aaron. 14. And they have upon me a [claim due to] sin, so I fear that they will kill me." 15. [Allāh] said, "No. Go both of you with Our signs; indeed, We are with you, listening. 16. Go to Pharaoh and say, 'We are the messengers of the Lord of the worlds, 17. [Commanded to say], "Send with us the Children of Israel."'" 18. [Pharaoh] said, "Did we not raise you among us as a child, and you remained among us for years of your life? 19. And [then] you did your deed which you did, and you were of the ungrateful." 20. [Moses] said, "I did it, then, while I was of those astray [i.e., ignorant]. 21. So I fled from you when I feared you. Then my Lord granted me judgement [i.e., wisdom and prophethood] and appointed me [as one] of the messengers. 22. And is this a favor of which you remind me - that you have enslaved the Children of Israel?" 23. Said Pharaoh, "And what is the Lord of the worlds?" 24. [Moses] said, "The Lord of the heavens and earth and that between them, if you should be convinced." 25. [Pharaoh] said to those around him, "Do you not hear?" 26. [Moses] said, "Your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers." 27. [Pharaoh] said, "Indeed, your 'messenger' who has been sent to you is mad." 28. [Moses] said, "Lord of the east and the west and that between them, if you were to reason." 29. [Pharaoh] said, "If you take a god other than me, I will surely place you among those imprisoned." 30. [Moses] said, "Even if I brought you something [i.e., proof] manifest?" 31. [Pharaoh] said, "Then bring it, if you should be of the truthful." 32. So [Moses] threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent manifest. 33. And he drew out his hand; thereupon it was white for the observers.
