قَالُواْ فَأْتُواْ بِهِۦ عَلَىٰٓ أَعْيُنِ ٱلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَشْهَدُونَ
ќōōлюю фə`туу биhи 'əлəə ə'йунин-нəəси лə'əльлəhум йəшhəдуун
They said, ‘Bring him before the people’s eyes so that they may bear witness [against him].’
قَالُوٓاْ ءَأَنتَ فَعَلْتَ هَٰذَا بِـَٔالِهَتِنَا يَٰٓإِبْرَٰهِيمُ
ќōōлюю ə`əŋŋтə фə'əльтə həəз̃əə би`əəлиhəтинəə йəə ибрōōhиим
They said, ‘Was it you who did this to our gods, O Abraham?’
قَالَ بَلْ فَعَلَهُۥ كَبِيرُهُمْ هَٰذَا فَسْـَٔلُوهُمْ إِن كَانُواْ يَنطِقُونَ
ќōōлə бəль фə'əлəhу кəбиируhум həəз̃əə фəəс`əлююhум иŋŋ-кəəнуу йəŋŋтыќуун
He said, ‘No, it was this biggest one of them who did it! Ask them, if they can speak.’
فَرَجَعُوٓاْ إِلَىٰٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ فَقَالُوٓاْ إِنَّكُمْ أَنتُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ
фəрōджə'уу илəə əŋŋфусиhим фəќōōлюю иннəкум əŋŋтумуз̃-з̃ōōлимуун
Thereat they came to themselves and said [to one another], ‘Indeed it is you who are the wrongdoers!’
ثُمَّ نُكِسُواْ عَلَىٰ رُءُوسِهِمْ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ يَنطِقُونَ
c̃уммə нукисуу 'əлəə ру`уусиhим лəќōд 'əлимтə мəə həə`улəə`и йəŋŋтыќуун
Then they hung their heads. [However, they said,] ‘You certainly know that they cannot speak.’
قَالَ أَفَتَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُكُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَلَا يَضُرُّكُمْ
ќōōлə əфəтə'будуунə миŋŋ-дууниль-лəhи мəə лəə йəŋŋфə'укум шэй`əу-вəлəə йəдуррукум
He said, ‘Then, do you worship besides Allah that which cannot cause you any benefit or harm?
أُفٍّ لَّكُمْ وَلِمَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
уффиль-лəкум вəлимəə тə'будуунə миŋŋ-дууниль-лəh, əфəлəə тə'ќилююн
Fie on you and what you worship besides Allah! Do you not exercise your reason?’
قَالُواْ حَرِّقُوهُ وَٱنصُرُوٓاْ ءَالِهَتَكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ فَٰعِلِينَ
ќōōлюю həрриќууhу вəəŋŋсуруу əəлиhəтəкум иŋŋ-куŋŋтум фəə'илиин
They said, ‘Burn him, and help your gods, if you are to do anything!’
قُلْنَا يَٰنَارُ كُونِى بَرْدًا وَسَلَٰمًا عَلَىٰٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ
ќульнəə йəə нəəру куунии бəрдəу-вəсəлəəмəн 'əлəə ибрōōhиим
We said, ‘O fire! Be cool and safe for Abraham!’
