The reply of Pharaoh to Moses, and the coming of a Divine revelation to Moses, on whom be peace.
Toggle stanza 1گفت نه نه مهلتم باید نهاد
He (Pharaoh) said, “Nay, nay, thou must appoint a certain respite: do not give cajoleries, do not talk vain things.”
At once the high God made a revelation to him, saying, “Give him an ample respite: be not afraid of that.
Willingly give him these forty days, that he may bethink him of divers plots. Let him endeavour, for I am not asleep; bid him advance quickly, (for) I have barred the way in front (of him).
I will confound all their devices, and I will reduce to little that which they increase.
Let them fetch water, and I will make (it) fire; let them get honey and sweets and I will make (it) bitter.
Let them join in a bond of love, and I will destroy it; I will do that which they conceive not.
Have thou no fear, and give him a lengthy respite; bid him bring together his host and prepare a hundred devices.”
