And they caused many to err;²—and thou, too, O Muhammad! shalt be the means of increasing only error in the wicked—

Because of their sins they were drowned, and made to go into the Fire;

And they found that they had no helper save God.

And Noah said, “Lord, leave not one single family cf Infidels on the Earth:

For if thou leave them they will beguile thy servants and will beget only sinners, infidels.

O my Lord, forgive me, and my parents, and every one who, being a believer, shall enter my house, and believers men and women: and add to the wicked nought but perdition.”
