أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِي تَضْلِيلٍ
Alam yajAAal kaydahum fee tadleelin
Did not He make their plan go astray?
Did He not utterly confound their artful planning?
Did He not make their treacherous plan go astray?
Did He not bring their stratagem to naught,
Did He not cause their war to end in confusion?
Did He not make their plan into misguidance?
وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ
Waarsala AAalayhim tayran ababeela
And He sent against them birds (in) flocks.
Thus, He let loose upon them great swarms of flying creatures
And He sent against them Flights of Birds,
And send against them swarms of flying creatures,
And send against them birds in flocks?
And He sent against them birds in flocks,
تَرْمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٍ مِّن سِجِّيلٍ
Tarmeehim bihijaratin min sijjeelin
Striking them with stones of baked clay.
which smote them with stone-hard blows of chastisement pre-ordained,
Striking them with stones of baked clay.
Which pelted them with stones of baked clay,
Casting at them decreed stones --
Striking them with stones of hard clay,
فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَّأْكُولٍ
FajaAAalahum kaAAasfin ma/koolin
Then He made them like straw eaten up.
and caused them to become like a field of grain that has been eaten down to stubble
Then did He make them like an empty field of stalks and straw, (of which the corn) has been eaten up.
And made them like green crops devoured (by cattle)?
So He rendered them like straw eaten up?
And He made them like eaten straw.
