It is He Who has made the sea subject, that ye may eat thereof flesh that is fresh and tender, and that ye may extract therefrom ornaments to wear; and thou seest the ships therein that plough the waves, that ye may seek (thus) of the bounty of Allah and that ye may be grateful.

Nor are the two bodies of flowing water alike,- the one palatable, sweet, and pleasant to drink, and the other, salt and bitter. Yet from each (kind of water) do ye eat flesh fresh and tender, and ye extract ornaments to wear; and thou seest the ships therein that plough the waves, that ye may seek (thus) of the Bounty of Allah that ye may be grateful.

He sends down water from the skies, and the channels flow, each according to its measure: But the torrent bears away to foam that mounts up to the surface. Even so, from that (ore) which they heat in the fire, to make ornaments or utensils therewith, there is a scum likewise. Thus doth Allah (by parables) show forth Truth and Vanity. For the scum disappears like forth cast out; while that which is for the good of mankind remains on the earth. Thus doth Allah set forth parables.

The people of Moses made, in his absence, out of their ornaments, the image of calf, (for worship): it seemed to low: did they not see that it could neither speak to them, nor show them the way? They took it for worship and they did wrong.

Is then one brought up among trinkets, and unable to give a clear account in a dispute (to be associated with Allah)?

他制服海洋，以便你们渔取其中的鲜肉，做你们的食品；或采取其中的珠宝，做你们的装饰。你看船舶在其中破浪而行，以便你们寻求他的恩惠，以便你们感谢。

两海不一样，这海是很甜的、可口的淡水，那海是很苦的咸水。你们可吃每一海中所产的新鲜的肉，又可采你们所戴的首饰。你看船舶在海上破浪而行，以便你们寻求他的恩惠，以便你们感谢他。

真主从云中降下雨水，一切沟壑就尽量流行。山洪载著浮渣--他们为制造首饰和器皿而熔化的金属，也有同样的浮渣。真主如此阐明真伪--至于渣滓则被冲走，至于有益于人的东西则留存在地面上。真主如此阐明许多比喻。

穆萨的宗族在他（离开）之后，以他们的首饰铸成一头牛犊--一个有犊声的躯壳。难道他们不知道它不能和他们对话，不能指引他们道路吗？他们以它为神灵，他们是不义者。

在首饰中长大，且不能雄辩者，难道他们以她归真主吗？
