إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ صَيْحَةً وَٰحِدَةً فَكَانُواْ كَهَشِيمِ ٱلْمُحْتَظِرِ
иннəə əрсəльнəə 'əлэйhим сōйhəтəу-вəəhидəтəн фəкəəнуу кəhəшиимиль-муhтəз̃ыр
We sent against them a single Cry, and they became like the dry sticks of a corral builder.
وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ
вəлəќōд йəссəрнəəль-ќур`əəнə лиз̃-з̃икри фəhəль мимм-муддəкир
Certainly We have made the Quran simple for the sake of admonishment. So is there anyone who will be admonished?
كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ لُوطٍۭ بِٱلنُّذُرِ
кəз̃з̃əбəт ќōуму люютымм-бин-нуз̃ур
And the people of Lot denied the warnings.
إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حَاصِبًا إِلَّآ ءَالَ لُوطٍ ۖ نَّجَّيْنَٰهُم بِسَحَرٍ
иннəə əрсəльнəə 'əлэйhим həəсыбəн ильлəə əəлə люют, нəджджəйнəəhумм-бисəhəр
We unleashed upon them a rain of stones, excepting the family of Lot, whom We delivered at dawn
نِّعْمَةً مِّنْ عِندِنَا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى مَن شَكَرَ
ни'мəтəмм-мин 'иŋŋдинəə, кəз̃əəликə нəджзии мəŋŋ-шəкəр
as a blessing from Us. Thus do We reward those who give thanks.
وَلَقَدْ أَنذَرَهُم بَطْشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوْاْ بِٱلنُّذُرِ
вəлəќōд əŋŋз̃əрōhумм-бəтшəтəнəə фəтəмəəрōу бин-нуз̃ур
He had already warned them of Our punishment, but they disputed the warnings.
وَلَقَدْ رَٰوَدُوهُ عَن ضَيْفِهِۦ فَطَمَسْنَآ أَعْيُنَهُمْ فَذُوقُواْ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ
вəлəќōд рōōвəдууhу 'əŋŋ-дōйфиhи фəтōмəснəə ə'йунəhум фəз̃ууќуу 'əз̃əəбии вəнуз̃ур
They even solicited of him his guests, whereat We blotted out their eyes, [saying,] ‘Taste My punishment and My warnings!’
وَلَقَدْ صَبَّحَهُم بُكْرَةً عَذَابٌ مُّسْتَقِرٌّ
вəлəќōд сōббəhəhумм-букрōтəн 'əз̃əəбумм-мустəќирр
Early at dawn there visited them an abiding punishment:
