And We divided them into twelve tribes (as distinct) nations. We directed Musa (Moses) by inspiration. when his people asked him for water. (saying): "Strike the stone with your stick". and there gushed forth out of it twelve springs: each group knew its own place for water. We shaded them with the clouds and sent down upon them Al-Manna and the quails (saying): "Eat of the good things with which We have provided you." They harmed Us not but they used to harm themselves. |

And they did not do Us any harm, but they did injustice to their own souls.

We divided them into twelve tribes or nations. We directed Moses by inspiration. when his (thirsty) people asked him for water: "Strike the rock with thy staff": out of it there gushed forth twelve springs: Each group knew its own place for water. We gave them the shade of clouds. and sent down to them manna and quails. (saying): "Eat of the good things We have provided for you": (but they rebelled); to Us they did no harm. but they harmed their own souls. |
