Then We caused to swallow up,
those who (could) defend themselves.
When Talut set forth with the armies, he said: "Allah will test you at the stream: if any drinks of its water, He goes not with my army: Only those who taste not of it go with me: A mere sip out of the hand is excused." but they all drank of it, except a few. When they crossed the river,- He and the faithful ones with him,- they said: "This day We cannot cope with Goliath and his forces." but those who were convinced that they must meet Allah, said: "How oft, by Allah's will, Hath a small force vanquished a big one? Allah is with those who steadfastly persevere."
If any do turn his back to them on such a day - unless it be in a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a troop (of his own)- he draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and his abode is Hell,- an evil refuge (indeed)!
Then We caused the earth to swallow up him and his house; and he had not (the least little) party to help him against Allah, nor could he defend himself.
当塔鲁特统率军队出发的时候,他说:“真主必定以一条河试验你们,谁饮河水,谁不是我的部属;谁不尝河水,谁确是我的部属。”只用手捧一捧水的人,(不算违抗命令)。嗣後,他们除少数人外,都饮了河水。当他和信道的人已渡过河的时候,他们说:“今日我们绝无能力敌对查鲁特和他的军队。”有些将士确信将来必与真主相会,他们说:“少数的部队,赖真主的佑助,往往战胜多数的部队。”真主是与坚忍者同在的。
除非因为转移阵地,或加入友军,在那日,谁以背向敌,谁要受真主的谴怒,他们的归宿是火狱,那归宿真恶劣。
我使他和他的房屋沦陷在地面下,他没有党羽协助他抵抗真主,他也不能自卫。
