Sura 11
Aya 37
37
وَاصنَعِ الفُلكَ بِأَعيُنِنا وَوَحيِنا وَلا تُخاطِبني فِي الَّذينَ ظَلَموا ۚ إِنَّهُم مُغرَقونَ

Muhammad Asad

but build, under Our eyes1 and according to Our inspiration, the ark [that shall save thee and those who follow thee];2 and do not appeal to Me in behalf of those who are bent on evildoing - for, behold, they are destined to be drowned!"
  • I.e., "under Our protection".
  • This interpolation is necessitated by the definite article preceding the noun fulk (lit., "ship", but rendered by me as "ark" owing to its familiar connotation in European languages).
