Y: Or lest ye should say: "Our fathers before us may have taken false
gods, but we are (their) descendants after them: wilt Thou then destroy
us because of the deeds of men who were futile?"
P: Or lest ye should say: (It is) only (that) our fathers ascribed
partners to Allah of old and we were (their) seed after them. Wilt Thou
destroy us on account of that which those who follow falsehood did?
S: Or you should say: Only our fathers associated others (with Allah)
before, and we were an offspring after them: Wilt Thou then destroy us
for what the vain doers did?

Y: Thus do We explain the signs in detail; and perchance they may turn
(unto Us).
P: Thus we detail the revelations, that haply they may return.
S: And thus do We make clear the communications, and that haply they
might return.

Y: Relate to them the story of the man to whom We sent Our signs, but he
passed them by: so Satan followed him up, and he went astray.
