ثُمَّ ءَاتَیْنَا مُوسَى الْکِتَـبَ تَمَاماً عَلَى الَّذِى أَحْسَنَ وَتَفْصِیلا لِّکُلِّ شَىْء وَهُدىً وَرَحْمَةً لَّعَلَّهُم بِلِقَآءِ رَبِّهِمْ یُؤْمِنُونَ (154)

154- THEN WE GAVE MOSES THE BOOK TO COMPLETE (OUR FAVOUR) ON HIM WHO WOULD DO GOOD (TO OTHERS), AND AN EXPLANATION OF EVERY THING, AND A GUIDANCE AND MERCY THAT THEY MIGHT BELIEVE IN THE MEETING WITH THEIR LORD.

وَهَـذَا کِتَـبٌ أَنزَلْنَـهُ مُبَارَکٌ فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَاتَّقُوا لَعَلَّکُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ (155)

155- AND THIS IS A BOOK THAT WE HAVE SENT IT DOWN BLESSED. SO FOLLOW IT, AND AVOID EVIL, PERHAPS YOU MAY RECEIVE MERCY.

أن تَقُولُوا إِنَّمَآ أُنزِلَ الْکِتَـبُ عَلَى طَآئِفَتَیْنِ مِن قَبْلِنَا وَإِن کُنَّا عَن دِرَاسَتِهِمْ لَغَـفِلِینَ (156)

156- LEST YOU SHOULD SAY; THAT THE BOOK WAS ONLY SENT DOWN UPON TWO PARTIES BEFORE US, AND WE WERE UNAWARE OF THEIR TEACHINGS.

أَوْ تَقُولُوا لَوْ أَنَّآ أُنزِلَ عَلَیْنَا الْکِتَـبُ لَکُنَّآ أَهْدَى مِنْهُمْ فَقَدْ جَآءَکُم بَیِّنَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّکُمْ وَهُدىً وَرَحْمَةٌ فَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّن کَذَّبَ بَأَیَـتِ اللهِ وَصَدَفَ عَنْهَا سَنَجْزِى الَّذِینَ یَصْدِفُونَ عَنْ ءَایَـتِنَا سُوءَ الْعَذَابِ بِمَا کَانُوا یَصْدِفُونَ (157)

157- OR LEST YOU SAY; IF THE BOOK HAD BEEN SENT DOWN TO US, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER GUIDED THAN THEY. NOW THERE HAS COME TO YOU FROM YOUR LORD CLEAR EVIDENCES, AND GUIDANCE AND MERCY. AND WHO IS MORE OPPRESSOR THAN HE WHO BELIES THE SIGNS OF ALLAH AND TURNS AWAY FROM IT? SOON SHALL WE RECOMPENSE THOSE WHO TURN AWAY FROM OUR SIGNS WITH THE BAD PUNISHMENT FOR THEIR TURNING AWAY.
