We (could) cause to swallow them
(would be) a responder to a cry
If (such) were Our Will, We could send down to them from the sky a Sign, to which they would bend their necks in humility.
See they not what is before them and behind them, of the sky and the earth? If We wished, We could cause the earth to swallow them up, or cause a piece of the sky to fall upon them. Verily in this is a Sign for every devotee that turns to Allah (in repentance).
If it were Our Will, We could drown them: then would there be no helper (to hear their cry), nor could they be delivered,
如果我意欲,我将从天上降示他们一个迹象,他们就为它而俯首贴耳。
难道他们没有观察在他们上面和下面的天地吗?如果我意欲,我必使他们沦陷在地面下,或使天一块一块地落在他们的头上。对于每一个归依的仆人,此中确有一种迹象。
如果我意欲,我就把他们淹死,而他们没有任何援助者,他们将不获拯救;
