واذ اخذ الله ميثاق النبيين لما اتيتكم من كتاب وحكمة ثم جاءكم رسول مصدق لما معكم لتؤمنن به ولتنصرنه قال ااقررتم واخذتم على ذلكم اصري قالوا اقررنا قال فاشهدوا وانا معكم من الشاهدين

Behold! God took The Covenant of the Prophets, Saying: "I give you A Book and Wisdom; Then comes to you An Apostle, confirming What is with you; Do ye believe in him And render him help." God said: "Do ye agree, And take this my Covenant As binding on you?" They said: "We agree." He said: "Then bear witness, And I am with you Among the witnesses."
