Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
"Put down your staff"; so when Moosa saw
it writhing like a serpent, he turned moving away without looking back;
"O Moosa! Come forth and do not fear; indeed you are in peace."
Yusuf Ali:
"Now do thou throw thy rod!" but when he saw it moving (of its own accord) as if it had been a snake, he turned back in retreat, and retraced not his steps: O Moses!" (It was said), "Draw near, and fear not: for thou art of those who are secure.
Pickthal:
Throw down thy staff. And when he saw it writhing as it had been a demon, he turned to flee headlong, (and it was said unto him): O Moses! Draw nigh and fear not. Lo! thou art of those who are secure.
