ሰዎችንም መምሪያ በመጣላቸው ጊዜ ከማመንና ጌታቸውንም ምሕረትን ከመለመን የመጀመሪዎቹ ( ሕዝቦች ) ልማድ ( መጥፋት ) ልትመጣባቸው ወይም ቅጣቱ በያይነቱ ሊመጣባቸው ( መጠባበቅ ) እንጂ ሌላ አልከለከላቸውም ፡ ፡
And naught prevented men from believing when the guidance came unto them , and seeking their Lord 's forgiveness , but that the wont of the ancients should come upon them , or that the chastisement should come upon them face to face .
