2:106
مَا نَنسَخْ مِنْ آيَةٍ أَوْ نُنسِهَا نَأْتِ بِخَيْر ٍ مِنْهَا أَوْ مِثْلِهَا أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْء ٍ قَدِير ٌ
Mā Nansakh Min 'Āyatin 'Aw Nunsihā Na'ti Bikhayrin Minhā 'Aw Mithlihā 'Alam Ta`lam 'Anna Allāha `Alá Kulli Shay'in Qadīrun
We do not duplicate a sign, or make it forgotten, unless We bring one which is like it or even greater. Did you not know that God is capable of all things?
22:52
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَسُول ٍ وَلاَ نَبِيّ ٍ إِلاَّ إِذَا تَمَنَّى أَلْقَى الشَّيْطَانُ فِي أُمْنِيَّتِه ِِ فَيَنْسَخُ اللَّهُ مَا يُلْقِي الشَّيْطَانُ ثُمَّ يُحْكِمُ اللَّهُ آيَاتِه ِِ وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيم ٌ
Wa Mā 'Arsalnā Min Qablika Min Rasūlin Wa Lā Nabīyin 'Illā 'Idhā Tamanná 'Alqá Ash-Shayţānu Fī 'Umnīyatihi Fayansakhu Allāhu Mā Yulqī Ash-Shayţānu Thumma Yuĥkimu Allāhu 'Āyātihi Wa Allāhu `Alīmun Ĥakīmun
And We did not send before you any messenger or prophet, without having the devil interfere with his wishes. God then overrides what the devil has cast, and God secures His revelations. And God is Knower, Wise.

وَلَمَّا سَكَتَ عَنْ مُوسَى الْغَضَبُ أَخَذَ الأَلْوَاحَ وَفِي نُسْخَتِهَا هُدى ً وَرَحْمَة ٌ لِلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِرَبِّهِمْ يَرْهَبُونَ
Wa Lammā Sakata `An Mūsá Al-GhaĐabu 'Akhadha Al-'Alwāĥa Wa Fī Nuskhatihā Hudáan Wa Raĥmatun Lilladhīna Hum Lirabbihim Yarhabūna
And when the anger subsided from Moses, he took the tablets; and in its inscription was a guidance and a mercy for those who reverence their Lord.
