On earth you will have a place to stay and livelihood for a time.’ 37 فَتَلَقَّىٰۤ ءَادَمُ مِن رَّبِّهِۦ كَلِمَـٰتࣲ فَتَابَ عَلَیۡهِۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِیمُ ۝٣٧ fatalaqqā ādamu min rabbihi kalimātin fatāba ʿalayhi innahu huwa l-tawābu l-raḥīm Then Adam received some words from his Lord and He accepted his repentance: He is the Ever Relenting, the Most Merciful 38 قُلۡنَا ٱهۡبِطُوا۟ مِنۡهَا جَمِیعࣰاۖ فَإِمَّا یَأۡتِیَنَّكُم مِّنِّی هُدࣰى فَمَن تَبِعَ هُدَایَ فَلَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَیۡهِمۡ وَلَا هُمۡ یَحۡزَنُونَ ۝٣٨ qul'nā ih'biṭū min'hā jamīʿan fa-immā yatiyannakum minnī hudan faman tabiʿa hudāya falā khawfun ʿalayhim walā hum yaḥzanūn We said, ‘Get out, all of you!
