And We divided them into twelve tribes (as distinct) nations. We directed Musa (Moses) by inspiration, when his people asked him for water, (saying): "Strike the stone with your stick", and there gushed forth out of it twelve springs: each group knew its own place for water. We shaded them with the clouds and sent down upon them Al-Manna and the quails (saying): "Eat of the good things with which We have provided you." They harmed Us not but they used to harm themselves.
Na tuliwagawanya katika makabila kumi na mbili, mataifa mbali mbali. Na tulimfunulia Musa walipo muomba maji watu wake kumwambia: Lipige hilo jiwe kwa fimbo yako. Mara zikatibuka humo chemchem kumi na mbili, na kila watu wakajua mahali pao pa kunywea. Na tukawafunika kivuli kwa mawingu, na tukawateremshia Manna na Salwa. Tukawaambia: Kuleni vizuri hivi tulivyo kuruzukuni. Wala hawakutu- dhulumu Sisi, bali wamejidhulumu wenyewe.
