يَا قَوْمِ
لَكُمُ
الْمُلْكُ
الْيَوْمَ
ظَاهِرِينَ
فِي
الْأَرْضِ
فَمَن
يَنصُرُنَا
مِن
بَأْسِ
اللَّهِ
إِن
جَاءَنَا
قَالَ
فِرْعَوْنُ
مَا
أُرِيكُمْ
إِلَّا
مَا
أَرَى
وَمَا
أَهْدِيكُمْ
إِلَّا
سَبِيلَ
الرَّشَادِ

"O my People! Yours is the dominion this day: Ye have the upper hand in the land: but who will help us from the Punishment of Allah, should it befall us?" Pharaoh said: "I but point out to you that which I see (myself); Nor do I guide you but to the Path of Right!"
— Abdullah Yusufali
O my people! Today sovereignty belongs to you, and you are dominant in the land. But who will save us from Allah’s punishment should it overtake us?’ Pharaoh said, ‘I just point out to you what I see [to be advisable for you], and I guide you only to the way of rectitude.’
