﴿ وَأَخِى هَٰرُونُ هُوَ أَفْصَحُ مِنِّى لِسَانًۭا فَأَرْسِلْهُ مَعِىَ رِدْءًۭا يُصَدِّقُنِىٓ ۖ إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُكَذِّبُونِ ﴾

“And my brother Aaron - he is far better in speech than I am. Send him, therefore, as a helper, so that he might [more eloquently] bear witness to my speaking the truth: for I fear indeed that they will give me the lie.””

And my brother Aaron is more eloquent more intelligible than me in speech. So send him with me as a helper as an aid a variant reading for rid’an ‘helper’ is ridan to confirm me read either in apocopated form yusadiqnī as a response to the request or as an indicative with damma inflection yusadiqunī as an adjectival qualification of rid’an ‘helper’ for I truly fear that they will deny me’.
