وقال الملا من قوم فرعون اتذر موسى وقومه ليفسدوا في الارض ويذرك والهتك قال سنقتل ابناءهم ونستحيي نساءهم وانا فوقهم قاهرون ١٢٧
وَقَالَ ٱلْمَلَأُ مِن قَوْمِ فِرْعَوْنَ أَتَذَرُ مُوسَىٰ وَقَوْمَهُۥ لِيُفْسِدُوا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَيَذَرَكَ وَءَالِهَتَكَ ۚ قَالَ سَنُقَتِّلُ أَبْنَآءَهُمْ وَنَسْتَحْىِۦ نِسَآءَهُمْ وَإِنَّا فَوْقَهُمْ قَـٰهِرُونَ ١٢٧
