اللَّهُ
مَثَلًا
لِّلَّذِينَ
كَفَرُوا
امْرَأَتَ
نُوحٍ
وَامْرَأَتَ
لُوطٍ

عَبْدَيْنِ
مِنْ
عِبَادِنَا
صَالِحَيْنِ
فَخَانَتَاهُمَا
فَلَمْ
يُغْنِيَا
عَنْهُمَا
مِنَ
اللَّهِ
شَيْئًا
وَقِيلَ
ادْخُلَا
النَّارَ
مَعَ
الدَّاخِلِينَ

Allah sets forth, for an example to the Unbelievers, the wife of Noah and the wife of Lut: they were (respectively) under two of our righteous servants, but they were false to their (husbands), and they profited nothing before Allah on their account, but were told: "Enter ye the Fire along with (others) that enter!"
— Abdullah Yusufali
Allah cites an example of the faithless: the wife of Noah and the wife of Lot. They were under two of our righteous servants, yet they betrayed them. So they did not avail them in any way against Allah, and it was said [to them], ‘Enter the Fire, along with those who enter [it].’
