Moses said, “If I ask you about anything after this, do not keep me in your company, for then you would be excused concerning me.”

He said, 'If I question thee on anything after this, then keep me company no more; thou hast already experienced excuse sufficient on my part.'

Moses said, ‘From now on, if I query anything you do, banish me from your company- you have put up with enough from me.’

Musa said: if I ask thee regarding aught after this, company not with me; surely there hath reached to thee from my side an excuse.

(Moses) said; "If ever I ask thee about anything after this, keep me not in thy company; then wouldst thou have received (full) excuse from my side."

Moses said: "If I ask you any thing again then do not keep me with you. You have my apology."

Said Moosa, “If I ask you anything after this, do not stay with me; indeed your condition from me is fulfilled.”

He said, ‘If I question you about anything after this, do not keep me in your company. You already have enough excuse on my part.’

(Moses) said: "If I should ever question you about anything after this, keep me no more in your company. You have already received (full) excuse from me."

He said: Did I not say to thee that thou couldst not have patience with me?

He said: If I ask you about anything after this, keep me not in your company; indeed you shall have (then) found an excuse in my case.

(Moses) said: If I ask thee after this concerning aught, keep not company with me. Thou hast received an excuse from me.

He (Moses) said: 'If I question you again do not let me be your companion; you already have enough excuse'

إِن سَأَلْتُكَ عَن شَيْءٍ بَعْدَهَا

فَلَ تُصَاحِبْنِي قَدْ بَلَغْتَ مِن لَّدُنِّي عُذْرًا

`If I ask you anything after this, keep me not in your company, you have received an excuse from me."
