By the Manifest Book:

43:3

إِنَّا جَعَلْنَٰهُ قُرْءَٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

иннəə джə'əльнəəhу ќур`əəнəн 'əрōбиййəль-лə'əльлəкум тə'ќилююн

We have made it an Arabic Quran so that you may exercise your reason,

43:4

وَإِنَّهُۥ فِىٓ أُمِّ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ لَدَيْنَا لَعَلِىٌّ حَكِيمٌ

and it is sublime and wise with Us in the Mother Book.

43:5

أَفَنَضْرِبُ عَنكُمُ ٱلذِّكْرَ صَفْحًا أَن كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا مُّسْرِفِينَ

əфəнəдрибу 'əŋŋкумуз̃-з̃икрō сōфhəн əŋŋ-куŋŋтум ќōумəмм-мусрифиин

Shall We keep back the Reminder from you and disregard you because you are an unrestrained lot?

43:6

وَكَمْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن نَّبِىٍّ فِى ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ

вəкəм əрсəльнəə мин-нəбиййин фииль-əувəлиин

How many a prophet We have sent to the former peoples!

43:7

وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن نَّبِىٍّ إِلَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ

вəмəə йə`тииhим-мин-нəбиййин ильлəə кəəнуу биhи йəстəhзи`уун

There did not come to them any prophet but that they used to deride him.

43:8

فَأَهْلَكْنَآ أَشَدَّ مِنْهُم بَطْشًا وَمَضَىٰ مَثَلُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ

фə`əhлəкнəə əшəддə минhумм-бəтшəу-вəмəдōō мəc̃əлюль-əувəлиин

So We destroyed those who were stronger than these, and the example of the former peoples has already come to pass.

43:9

وَلَئِن سَأَلْتَهُم مَّنْ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ خَلَقَهُنَّ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

If you ask them, ‘Who created the heavens and the earth?’ they will surely say, ‘The All-mighty, the All-knowing created them.’

43:10

ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ مَهْدًا وَجَعَلَ لَكُمْ فِيهَا سُبُلًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ

əльлəз̃ии джə'əлə лəкумуль-əрдō мəhдəу-вəджə'əлə лəкум фииhəə субулəль-лə'əльлəкум тəhтəдуун

He, who made the earth a cradle for you, and made for you in it ways so that you may be guided [to your destinations],
