007.105 Y: "One for whom it is right to say nothing but truth about Allah. Now have I come unto you (people), from your Lord, with a clear (Sign): So let the Children of Israel depart along with me." P: Approved upon condition that I speak concerning Allah nothing but the truth. I come unto you (lords of Egypt) with a clear proof from your Lord. So let the Children of Israel go with me. S: (I am) worthy of not saying anything about Allah except the truth: I have come to you indeed with clear proof from your Lord, therefore send with me the children of Israel. 007.106 Y: (Pharaoh) said: "If indeed thou hast come with a Sign, show it forth,- if thou tellest the truth." P: (Pharaoh) said: If thou comest with a token, then produce it, if thou art of those who speak the truth. S: He said: If you have come with a sign, then bring it, if you are of the truthful ones. 007.107 Y: Then (Moses) threw his rod, and behold! it was a serpent, plain (for all to see)! P: Then he flung down his staff and lo! it was a serpent manifest; S: So he threw his rod, then lo! it was a clear serpent. 007.108 Y: And he drew out his hand, and behold! it was white to all beholders! P: And he drew forth his hand (from his bosom), and lo! it was white for the beholders. S: And he drew forth his hand, and lo! it was white to the beholders. 007.109 Y: Said the Chiefs of the people of Pharaoh: "This is indeed a sorcerer well-versed." P: The chiefs of Pharaoh's people said: Lo! this is some knowing wizard, S: The chiefs of Firon's people said: most surely this is an enchanter possessed of knowledge: 007.110 Y: "His plan is to get you out of your land: then what is it ye counsel?" P: Who would expel you from your land. Now what do ye advise? S: He intends to turn you out of your land. What counsel do you then give? 007.111 Y: They said: "Keep him and his brother in suspense (for a while); and send to the cities men to collect-" P: They said (unto Pharaoh): Put him off (a while) - him and his brother - and send into the cities summoners, S: They said: Put him off and his brother, and send collectors into the cities: 007.112 Y: "And bring up to thee all (our) sorcerers well-versed." P: To bring each knowing wizard unto thee. S: That they may bring to you every enchanter possessed of knowledge. 007.113 Y: So there came the sorcerers to Pharaoh: They said, "of course we shall have a (suitable) reward if we win!" P: And the wizards came to Pharaoh, saying: Surely there will be a reward for us if we are victors. S: And the enchanters came to Firon (and) said: We must surely have a reward if we are the prevailing ones. 007.114 Y: He said: "Yea, (and more),- for ye shall in that case be (raised to posts) nearest (to my person)." P: He answered: Yes, and surely ye shall be of those brought near (to me). S: He said: Yes, and you shall certainly be of those who are near (to me).
