وقال رجل مؤمن من ال فرعون يكتم ايمانه اتقتلون رجلا ان يقول ربي الله وقد جاءكم بالبينات من ربكم وان يك كاذبا فعليه كذبه وان يك صادقا يصبكم بعض الذي يعدكم ان الله لا يهدي من هو مسرف كذاب

A Believer, a man From among the people Of Pharaoh, who had concealed His faith, said: "Will ye Slay a man because he Says, "My Lord is God"?— When he has indeed come To you with Clear (Signs) From your Lord? And if He be a liar, on him Is (the sin of) his lie; But, if he is telling The Truth, then will Fall on you something Of the (calamity) of which He warns you: truly God guides not one Who transgresses and lies!
