اَللہُ الَّذِيْ سَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْبَحْرَ لِتَجْرِيَ الْفُلْكُ فِيْہِ بِاَمْرِہٖ وَلِتَبْتَغُوْا مِنْ فَضْلِہٖ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ۝۱۲ۚ

مَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَلِنَفْسِہٖ۝۰ۚ وَمَنْ اَسَاۗءَ فَعَلَيْہَا۝۰ۡثُمَّ اِلٰى رَبِّكُمْ تُرْجَعُوْنَ۝۱۵

He who does good does so for himself; and he who does evil suffers the consequence thereof. You have then to go back to your Lord.

We gave the children of Israel the Book, and the judgement and the prophethood, provided them with good things, favoured them over other people,

Ahmed Ali

And gave them a clear exposition of Our laws. And they did not differ until after knowledge came to them, through mutual jealousies. Verily your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Judgement in what they differed about.

ثُمَّ جَعَلْنٰكَ عَلٰي شَرِيْعَۃٍ مِّنَ الْاَمْرِ فَاتَّبِعْہَا وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ اَہْوَاۗءَ الَّذِيْنَ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ۝۱۸
