وَمَا
يَسْتَوِي
الْبَحْرَانِ
هَذَا
عَذْبٌ
فُرَاتٌ
سَائِغٌ
شَرَابُهُ
وَهَذَا
مِلْحٌ
أُجَاجٌ
وَمِن
كُلٍّ
تَأْكُلُونَ
لَحْمًا
طَرِيًّا
وَتَسْتَخْرِجُونَ
حِلْيَةً
تَلْبَسُونَهَا
وَتَرَى
الْفُلْكَ
فِيهِ
مَوَاخِرَ
لِتَبْتَغُوا
مِن
فَضْلِهِ
وَلَعَلَّكُمْ
تَشْكُرُونَ

The two oceans, one sweet and the other salty, are not alike. From each you can eat fresh meat and obtain ornaments to use. You see ships ploughing their way through them so that you may seek His favor and give Him thanks.
