وَلَمَّا
أَن
جَاءَتْ
رُسُلُنَا
لُوطًا
سِيءَ
بِهِمْ
وَضَاقَ
بِهِمْ
ذَرْعًا
وَقَالُوا
لَا
تَخَفْ
وَلَا
تَحْزَنْ
إِنَّا
مُنَجُّوكَ
وَأَهْلَكَ
إِلَّا
امْرَأَتَكَ
كَانَتْ
مِنَ
الْغَابِرِينَ

And when Our Messengers came to Lut, he was grieved on their account, and felt himself powerless (to protect) them: but they said: "Fear thou not, nor grieve: we are (here) to save thee and thy following, except thy wife: she is of those who lag behind.
— Abdullah Yusufali
And when Our messengers came to Lot, he was distressed on their account and in a predicament for their sake. But they said, ‘Do not be afraid, nor grieve! We shall deliver you and your family, except your wife: she will be one of those who remain behind.
