42
وَلا بِقَولِ كاهِنٍ ۚ قَليلًا ما تَذَكَّرونَ

Yusuf Ali

Nor is it the word of a soothsayer:1 little admonition it is ye receive.
  • A soothsayer merely pretends to foretell future events of no profound spiritual consequence. Most of his prophecies are frauds, and none of them is meant to teach lessons of real admonition. Such admonition is the work of an honoured prophet.
