(Firon) said: You believe in him before I give you leave; most surely he is the chief of you who taught you enchantment, therefore I will certainly cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will certainly crucify you on the trunks of the palm trees, and certainly you will come to know which of us is the more severe and the more abiding in chastising.
فرعون گفت: آيا پيش از آنكه شما را رخصت دهم به او ايمان آورديد؟ او بزرگ شماست كه به شما جادوگرى آموخته است. دستها و پاهاتان را از چپ و راست مى‌برم و بر تنه درخت خرما به دارتان مى‌آويزم. تا بدانيد كه عذاب كدام يك از ما سخت‌تر و پاينده‌تر است.
