فانطلقا حتى اذا اتيا اهل قرية استطعما اهلها فابوا ان يضيفوهما فوجدا فيها جدارا يريد ان ينقض فاقامه قال لو شئت لاتخذت عليه اجرا

Then they proceeded: Until, when they came To the inhabitants of a town, They asked them for food, But they refused them Hospitality. They found there A wall on the point of Falling down, but he Set it up straight. (Moses) said: "If thou Hadst wished, surely thou Couldst have exacted some Recompense for it!"
