ٱلْإِسْرَاء : ٤

  • وَقَضَيۡنَآ And We decreed
  • إِلَىٰ for
  • بَنِيٓ (the) Children
  • إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ (of) Israel
  • فِي in
  • ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ the Book
  • لَتُفۡسِدُنَّ Surely you will cause corruption
  • فِي in
  • ٱلۡأَرۡضِ the earth
  • مَرَّتَيۡنِ twice
  • وَلَتَعۡلُنَّ and surely you will reach
  • عُلُوّٗا haughtiness
  • كَبِيرٗا great
And We conveyed1 to the Children of Israel in the Scripture that, "You will surely cause corruption on the earth twice, and you will surely reach [a degree of] great haughtiness."
