31

وَلَآ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ عِندِى خَزَآئِنُ ٱللَّهِ وَلَآ أَعْلَمُ ٱلْغَيْبَ وَلَآ أَقُولُ إِنِّى مَلَكٌۭ وَلَآ أَقُولُ لِلَّذِينَ تَزْدَرِىٓ أَعْيُنُكُمْ لَن يُؤْتِيَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ خَيْرًا ۖ ٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا فِىٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ ۖ إِنِّىٓ إِذًۭا لَّمِنَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

And I do not tell you that I have the depositories [containing the provision] of Allah or that I know the unseen, nor do I tell you that I am an angel, nor do I say of those upon whom your eyes look down that Allah will never grant them any good. Allah is most knowing of what is within their souls. Indeed, I would then be among the wrongdoers."

(I say not unto you: �I have the treasures of Allah�) I have the keys to Allah's stores of provision (nor �I have knowledge of the Unseen�,) when the chastisement shall descend or that which is hidden from me (nor say I: �Lo! I am an angel!�) from heaven. (Nor say I unto those whom your eyes scorn) those whom you belittle (that Allah will not give them good) that Allah will not favour them with genuine faith. (Allah knoweth best what is their hearts) of belief. (Lo! then indeed) if drive them away (I should be of the wrong-doers) I should be of those who harm themselves.

32

قَالُوا۟ يَٰنُوحُ قَدْ جَٰدَلْتَنَا فَأَكْثَرْتَ جِدَٰلَنَا فَأْتِنَا بِمَا تَعِدُنَآ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ

They said, "O Noah, you have disputed us and been frequent in dispute of us. So bring us what you threaten us, if you should be of the truthful."

(They said: O Noah! Thou hast disputed with us) you have argued with us and called us to follow a religion other than that of our forefathers (and multiplied disputation with us) and dwelt at length in arguing with us and inviting us to your religion; (now bring upon Us that where with thou threatenest us) of chastisement, (if thou art of the Truthful) that it will befall us.

33

قَالَ إِنَّمَا يَأْتِيكُم بِهِ ٱللَّهُ إِن شَآءَ وَمَآ أَنتُم بِمُعْجِزِينَ

He said, "Allah will only bring it to you if He wills, and you will not cause [Him] failure.

(He said) Noah said: (Only Allah will bring it Upon you) he said: the One who will bring chastisement on you is Allah (if He will) to punish you, (and ye can by no means escape) His chastisement.

34

وَلَا يَنفَعُكُمْ نُصْحِىٓ إِنْ أَرَدتُّ أَنْ أَنصَحَ لَكُمْ إِن كَانَ ٱللَّهُ يُرِيدُ أَن يُغْوِيَكُمْ ۚ هُوَ رَبُّكُمْ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ

And my advice will not benefit you - although I wished to advise you - If Allah should intend to put you in error. He is your Lord, and to Him you will be returned."

(My counsel will not profit you) my invitation and warning to you from Allah's chastisement will not benefit you (if I were minded to advise you) if I were to warn you and call you to profess Allah's divine Oneness, (if Allah's will is to keep you astray) from guidance. (He is your lord) and has better right over you than me (and unto Him ye will be brought back) after death and He will reward you according to your works.

35

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ ٱفْتَرَىٰهُ ۖ قُلْ إِنِ ٱفْتَرَيْتُهُۥ فَعَلَىَّ إِجْرَامِى وَأَنَا۠ بَرِىٓءٌۭ مِّمَّا تُجْرِمُونَ

Or do they say [about Prophet Muhammad], "He invented it"? Say, "If I have invented it, then upon me is [the consequence of] my crime; but I am innocent of what [crimes] you commit."

(Or say they (again)) indeed the people of Noah say: (He hath invented it) Noah has invented that which he has brought us? (Say) to them, O Noah: (If I have invented it, upon me be my crimes) my sins, (but I am innocent of (all) that ye commit) of crimes. It is said that this verse was revealed about Muhammad (pbuh).

وَأُوحِىَ إِلَىٰ نُوحٍ أَنَّهُۥ لَن يُؤْمِنَ مِن قَوْمِكَ إِلَّا مَن قَدْ ءَامَنَ فَلَا تَبْتَئِسْ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ

And it was revealed to Noah that, "No one will believe from your people except those who have already believed, so do not be distressed by what they have been doing.

(And it was inspired in Noah, (saying): No one of thy folk will believe save him who hath believed already. Be not distressed) do not be saddened for their destruction (because of what they do) in their state of disbelief.

وَٱصْنَعِ ٱلْفُلْكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا وَلَا تُخَٰطِبْنِى فِى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ ۚ إِنَّهُم مُّغْرَقُونَ

And construct the ship under Our observation and Our inspiration and do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are [to be] drowned."

(Build the ship) start the construction of the ship (under Our Eyes) under Our care (and by Our inspiration) and by Our command, (and speak not unto Me) plead not with Me (on behalf of those who do wrong) about saving those disbelieved. (Lo! they will be drowned) by the flood.

وَيَصْنَعُ ٱلْفُلْكَ وَكُلَّمَا مَرَّ عَلَيْهِ مَلَأٌۭ مِّن قَوْمِهِۦ سَخِرُوا۟ مِنْهُ ۚ قَالَ إِن تَسْخَرُوا۟ مِنَّا فَإِنَّا نَسْخَرُ مِنكُمْ كَمَا تَسْخَرُونَ

And he constructed the ship, and whenever an assembly of the eminent of his people passed by him, they ridiculed him. He said, "If you ridicule us, then we will ridicule you just as you ridicule.

(And he was building the ship) and he started to construct the ship, (and every time that chieftains of his people passed him, they made mock of him) they derided him for so doing. (He said: Though ye make mock of us) today, (yet we mock at you) after today (even as ye mock) us now;

فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ مَن يَأْتِيهِ عَذَابٌۭ يُخْزِيهِ وَيَحِلُّ عَلَيْهِ عَذَابٌۭ مُّقِيمٌ

And you are going to know who will get a punishment that will disgrace him [on earth] and upon whom will descend an enduring punishment [in the Hereafter]."

(And ye shall know to whom a punishment that will confound) humiliate and destroy (him cometh, and upon whom a lasting doom) in the Hereafter (will fall) will be enjoined upon.

حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَ أَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ ٱلتَّنُّورُ قُلْنَا ٱحْمِلْ فِيهَا مِن كُلٍّۢ زَوْجَيْنِ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَأَهْلَكَ إِلَّا مَن سَبَقَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْقَوْلُ وَمَنْ ءَامَنَ ۚ وَمَآ ءَامَنَ مَعَهُۥٓ إِلَّا قَلِيلٌۭ

[So it was], until when Our command came and the oven overflowed, We said, "Load upon the ship of each [creature] two mates and your family, except those about whom the word has preceded, and [include] whoever has believed." But none had believed with him, except a few.

((Thus it was) till, when Our commandment) the appointed time for Our chastisement (came to pass and the oven gushed forth water) it is also said this means: and the dawn broke, (We said: Load therein) aboard the ship (two of every kind, a pair) a male and a female, (and thy household, save him against whom the word hath gone forth already) except the one upon him the word has already been enjoined, (and those who believe) and carry with you also those who believed. (And but a few were they who believed with him) 80 people in all.
