44.21 . And if ye put no faith in me , then let me go

44.22 . And he cried unto his Lord ( saying ) : These area guilty folk .

44.23 . Then ( his Lord commanded ) Take away my slaves by night . Lo! ye will be followed ,

44.24 . And leave the sea behind at rest , for lo! they are a drowned host .

44.25 . How many were the gardens and the water springs that they left behind ,

44.26 . And the cornlands and the goodly sites

44.27 . And pleasant things wherein they took delight!

44.28 . Even so ( it was ) , and We made it an inheritance for other folk ;

44.29 . And the heaven and the earth wept not for them , nor were they reprieved .

44.30 . And We delivered the Children of Israel from the shameful doom

44.31 . ( We delivered them ) from Pharaoh . Lo! he was a tyrant of the wanton ones .

44.32 . And We chose them , purposely , above ( all ) creatures .

44.33 . And We gave them portents wherein was a clear trial .

44.34 . Lo! these , forsooth , are saying :

44.35 . There is naught but our first death , and we shall not be raised again .

44.36 . Bring back our fathers , if ye speak the truth!

44.37 . Are they better , or the folk of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them , for surely they were guilty .

44.38 . And We created not the heavens and the earth , and all that is between them , in play .

44.39 . We created them not save with truth ; but most of them know not .

44.40 . Assuredly the Day of Decision is the term of all of them ,
