﴿ قَالُوٓا۟ أَجِئْتَنَا لِتَلْفِتَنَا عَمَّا وَجَدْنَا عَلَيْهِ ءَابَآءَنَا وَتَكُونَ لَكُمَا ٱلْكِبْرِيَآءُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا نَحْنُ لَكُمَا بِمُؤْمِنِينَ ﴾

“[The great ones] replied: "Hast thou come to turn us away from what we found our forefathers believing in and doing, so that the two of you might become supreme in this land? However, we do not believe in you two!"”

(They said) to Moses: (Hast thou come unto us to pervert us from that (faith) in which we found our fathers) of idol worship, (and that you two may own the place of greatness) sovereignty and power (in the land) of Egypt? (We will not believe you two).
