And what is that in your right hand, O Moses?"  

وَمَا تِلْكَ بِيَمِينِكَ يَا مُوسَىٰ  

He said, "It is my staff; I lean upon it, and I bring down leaves for my sheep and I have therein other uses."  

قَالَ هِيَ عَصَايَ أَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَيْهَا وَأَهُشُّ بِهَا عَلَىٰ غَنَمِي وَلِيَ فِيهَا مَآرِبُ أُخْرَىٰ  

˹Allah˺ said, "Throw it down, O Moses."  

قَالَ أَلْقِهَا يَا مُوسَىٰ  

So he threw it down, and thereupon it was a snake, moving swiftly.  

فَأَلْقَاهَا فَإِذَا هِيَ حَيَّةٌ تَسْعَىٰ  

˹Allah˺ said, "Seize it and fear not; We will return it to its former condition.  

قَالَ خُذْهَا وَلَا تَخَفْ ۖ سَنُعِيدُهَا سِيرَتَهَا الْأُولَىٰ  

And draw in your hand to your side; it will come out white without disease - another sign,  

وَاضْمُمْ يَدَكَ إِلَىٰ جَنَاحِكَ تَخْرُجْ بَيْضَاءَ مِنْ غَيْرِ سُوءٍ آيَةً أُخْرَىٰ  

That We may show you ˹some˺ of Our greater signs.  

لِنُرِيَكَ مِنْ آيَاتِنَا الْكُبْرَى  

Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed."  

اذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُ طَغَىٰ
