فَلَمَّا جَاءَ السَّحَرَةُ قَالُوا لِفِرْعَوْنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجْرًا إِنْ كُنَّا نَحْنُ الْغَالِبِينَ ٤١
So when the sorcerers arrived, they said to Pharaoh: "Of course - shall we have a (suitable) reward if we win?
26:42
قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِذًا لَمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ ٤٢
He said: "Yea, (and more),- for ye shall in that case be (raised to posts) nearest (to my person)."
26:43
قَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَىٰ أَلْقُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ مُلْقُونَ ٤٣
Moses said to them: "Throw ye - that which ye are about to throw!"
26:44
فَأَلْقَوْا حِبَالَهُمْ وَعِصِيَّهُمْ وَقَالُوا بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْغَالِبُونَ ٤٤
So they threw their ropes and their rods, and said: "By the might of Pharaoh, it is we who will certainly win!"
26:45
فَأَلْقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلْقَفُ مَا يَأْفِكُونَ ٤٥
Then Moses threw his rod, when, behold, it straightway swallows up all the falsehoods which they fake!
