(And Moses said: Our Lord!) O our Lord! (Lo! Thou hast given Pharaoh and his chiefs splendour) beauty (and riches) and abundant riches (in the life of the world, Our Lord!) O our Lord! (that they may lead men astray) that by means of it they may lead your servants astray (from Thy way) from Your religion and obedience. (Our Lord! Destroy their riches and harden their hearts so that they believe not) so that they will not believe (till they see the painful doom) their own drowning.
