| 71:1 | | Truly We sent Noah to his people, “Warn thy people before a painful punishment comes upon them. |
| 71:2 | | He said, “O my people! I am a clear warner unto you |
| 71:3 | | that you may worship God, reverence Him, and obey me |
| 71:4 | | that He may forgive you some of your sins and grant you reprieve until a term appointed. Truly when the term of God comes, it will not be delayed, if you but knew. |
| 71:5 | | He said, “My Lord, I have called my people day and night |
| 71:6 | | Yet my calling has not increased them in aught but flight |
| 71:7 | | Truly whenever I call them, that Thou mayest forgive them, they put their fingers in their ears, cover themselves with their garments, persist, and wax most arrogant |
| 71:8 | | Then I called them openly |
| 71:9 | | Then I proclaimed to them and confided to them in secret |
| 71:10 | | I said, ‘Seek forgiveness of your Lord! Truly He is Forgiving |
| 71:11 | | He will send the sky upon you with abundant rains |
| 71:12 | | support you with wealth and sons, and make for you gardens and rivers |
| 71:13 | | What ails you that you do not hope for God with dignity |
| 71:14 | | seeing that He has created you in stages |
| 71:15 | | Have you not considered how God created the seven heavens one upon another |
| 71:16 | | and made the moon a light therein and made the sun a lamp |
| 71:17 | | And God made you grow forth from the earth like plants |
| 71:18 | | Then He will cause you to return to it and bring you forth again |
| 71:19 | | And God made the earth an open expanse for you |
| 71:20 | | that you may travel spacious paths therein.’ |
| 71:21 | | Noah said, “My Lord they disobeyed me and followed those whose wealth and children increase them in naught but loss. |
| 71:22 | | And they devised a mighty plot |
| 71:23 | | saying, “Do not leave your gods; do not leave Wadd or Suwa?, or Yaguth, Ya?uq, or Nasr. |
| 71:24 | | Many indeed have they led astray; and it increases the wrongdoers in naught but error |
| 71:25 | | Because of their iniquities they were drowned, then made to enter a Fire. And then they found no helpers for themselves apart from God |
| 71:26 | | Noah said, “My Lord, leave not a single disbeliever to dwell upon the earth |
| 71:27 | | Truly if you leave them, they will mislead Thy servants and will beget naught but disbelieving profligates |
| 71:28 | | My Lord, forgive me and my parents, whosoever enters my house as a believer, and the believing men and the believing women, and do not increase the wrongdoers in aught but ruin. |
