telling [them]: ‘‘Plead to your Lord for forgiveness. Indeed, He is all-forgiving. 10He will send for you abundant rains from the sky, 11and aid you with wealth and sons, and provide you with gardens and provide you with streams. 12What is the matter with you that you do not look upon Allah with veneration, 13though He has created you in [various] stages? 14Have you not seen how Allah has created the seven heavens in layers, 15and has made therein the moon for a light and the sun for a lamp? 16Allah made you grow from the earth, with a [vegetable] growth. 17Then He makes you return to it, and He will bring you forth [without fail]. 18Allah has made the earth a vast expanse for you 19so that you may travel over its spacious ways.’’ ’ 20Noah said, ‘My Lord! They have disobeyed me, following someone whose wealth and children only add to his loss, 21and they have devised an outrageous plot. 22They say, ‘‘Do not abandon your gods. Do not abandon Wadd, nor Suwa, nor Yaghuth, Ya‘uq and Nasr,’’ 23and already they have led many astray. Do not increase the wrongdoers in anything but error.’ 24They were drowned because of their iniquities, then made to enter a Fire, and they did not find any helpers for themselves besides Allah. 25And Noah said, ‘My Lord! ‘Do not leave on the earth any inhabitant from among the faithless. 26If You leave them, they will lead astray Your servants, and will beget none except vicious ingrates. 27My Lord! Forgive me and my parents, and whoever enters my house in faith, and the faithful men and women, and do not increase the wrongdoers in anything but ruin.’ 28
