قَالَ
يَاقَوْمِ
لِمَ
تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
بِالسَّيِّئَةِ
قَبْلَ
الْحَسَنَةِ
لَوْلَا
تَسْتَغْفِرُونَ
اللَّهَ
لَعَلَّكُمْ
تُرْحَمُونَ
qāla yā-qawmi li-ma tastaʿjilūna bi-s-sayyiʾati qabla l-ḥasanati law-lā tastaghfirūna llāha laʿallakum turḥamūna
Salih said, "My people, why do you commit sins so quickly before doing good? Would that you ask forgiveness from God so that perhaps He will have mercy upon you."
