وَقُلْنَا
مِن
بَعْدِهِ
لِبَنِي
إِسْرَائِيلَ
اسْكُنُوا
الْأَرْضَ
فَإِذَا
جَاءَ
وَعْدُ
الْآخِرَةِ
جِئْنَا
بِكُمْ

After him We said to the Children of Israel, ‘Take up residence in the land, and when the occasion of the other [promise] comes, We shall gather you in mixed company.’
— Ali Quli Qarai
And We said thereafter to the Children of Israel, "Dwell securely in the land (of promise)": but when the second of the warnings came to pass, We gathered you together in a mingled crowd.
