وَلَـٰكِنَّآ But We أَنشَأْنَا [We] produced قُرُونًۭا generations فَتَطَاوَلَ and prolonged عَلَيْهِمُ for them ٱلْعُمُرُ ۚ the life وَمَا And not كُنتَ you were ثَاوِيًۭا a dweller فِىٓ among أَهْلِ (the) people مَدْيَنَ (of) Madyan تَتْلُوا۟ reciting عَلَيْهِمْ to them ءَايَـٰتِنَا Our Verses وَلَـٰكِنَّا but We كُنَّا [We] were مُرْسِلِينَ the Senders ٤٥
But We produced [many] generations [after Moses], and prolonged was their duration. And you were not a resident among the people of Madyan, reciting to them Our verses, but We were senders [of this message].
