قَالُواْ سُبْحَـنَ رَبّنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَـلِمِينَ- فَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ يَتَلَـوَمُونَ- قَالُواْ يوَيْلَنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا طَـغِينَ- عَسَى رَبُّنَآ أَن يُبْدِلَنَا خَيْراً مّنْهَآ إِنَّآ إِلَى رَبّنَا رغِبُونَ- كَذَلِكَ الْعَذَابُ وَلَعَذَابُ الاْخِرَةِ أَكْبَرُ لَوْ كَانُواْ يَعْلَمُ

Chapter 68, Page 565, Juz 29

17. We have put them [i.e., the Makkans] to test even as We put to test the owners of the orchard when they vowed that they would gather the fruit of their orchard in the morning, 18. without making any allowance (for the will of Allah). 19. Thereupon a calamity from your Lord passed over it while they were asleep, 20. and so by morning the orchard lay as though it had been fully harvested. 21. At daybreak they called out to one another: 22. “Hurry to your orchard if you would gather its fruit.” 23. So off they went, whispering to one another: 24. “No destitute person shall enter it today.” 25. They went forth early, believing that they had the power (to gather the fruit). 26. But as soon as they beheld the orchard, (they cried out): “We have certainly lost the way; 27. rather, we are utterly ruined.” 28. The best among them said: “Did I not say to you: why do you not give glory to (your Lord)?” 29. They cried out: “Glory be to our Lord! Certainly we were sinners.” 30. Then they began to reproach one another. 31. They said: “Woe to us! We had indeed transgressed. 32. Maybe our Lord will give us a better orchard in its place; to our Lord do we penitently turn.” 33. Such is the chastisement; and the chastisement of the Hereafter is assuredly even greater, if only they knew.
