Yunus 10:90

Word by word

۞ وَجَـٰوَزْنَا بِبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱلْبَحْرَ فَأَتْبَعَهُمْ فِرْعَوْنُ وَجُنُودُهُۥ بَغْيًا وَعَدْوًا ۖ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَدْرَكَهُ ٱلْغَرَقُ قَالَ ءَامَنتُ أَنَّهُۥ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِىٓ ءَامَنَتْ بِهِۦ بَنُوٓا۟ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ وَأَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ

And We took the Children of Israel across the sea, and Pharaoh and his soldiers pursued them in tyranny and enmity until, when drowning overtook him, he said, "I believe that there is no deity except that in whom the Children of Israel believe, and I am of the Muslims."

وقطَعْنا ببني إسرائيل البحر حتى جاوزوه، فأتبعهم فرعون وجنوده ظلمًا وعدوانًا، فسلكوا البحر وراءهم، حتى إذا أحاط بفرعون الغرق قال: آمنتُ أنه لا إله إلا الذي آمنتْ به بنو إسرائيل، وأنا من الموحدين المستسلمين بالانقياد والطاعة.
