Chapter 20, Page 313, Juz 16

25. (Moses) said: My Lord! relieve my mind 26. And ease my task for me; 27. And loose a knot from my tongue, 28. That they may understand my saying. 29. Appoint for me a henchman from my folk, 30. Aaron, my brother. 31. Confirm my strength with him 32. And let him share my task, 33. That we may glorify Thee much 34. And much remember Thee. 35. Lo! Thou art ever Seeing us. 36. He said: Thou art granted thy request, O Moses. 37. And indeed, another time, already We have shown thee favour, 38. When we inspired in thy mother that which is inspired, 39. Saying: Throw him into the ark, and throw it into the river, then the river shall throw it on to the bank, and there an enemy to Me and an enemy to him shall take him. And I endued thee with love from Me that thou mightest be trained according to My will, 40. When thy sister went and said: Shall I show you one who will nurse him? and we restored thee to thy mother that her eyes might be refreshed and might not sorrow. And thou didst kill a man and We delivered thee from great distress, and tried thee with a heavy trial. And thou didst tarry years among the folk of Midian. Then camest thou (hither) by (My) providence, O Moses, 41. And I have attached thee to Myself. 42. Go, thou and thy brother, with My tokens, and be not faint in remembrance of Me. 43. Go, both of you, unto Pharaoh. Lo! he hath transgressed (the bounds). 44. And speak unto him a gentle word, that peradventure he may heed or fear. 45. They said: Our Lord! Lo! we fear that he may be beforehand with us or that he may play the tyrant. 46. He said: Fear not. Lo! I am with you twain, Hearing and Seeing. 47. So go ye unto him and say: Lo! we are two messengers of thy Lord. So let the children of Israel go with us, and torment them not. We bring thee a token from thy Lord. And peace will be for him who followeth right guidance. 48. Lo! it hath been revealed unto us that the doom will be for him who denieth and turneth away.
