Spušta s neba vodu pa teče koritima s mjerom njihovom, te bujica nosi pjenu narastajuću - a od onog šta pale u vatri, tražeći ukrase ili izrađevine - troska je slična toj. Tako Allah navodi za primjer Istinu i laž. Pa što se tiče troske, tad odlazi (kao) naplavina; a što se tiče onog što koristi ljudima, pa ostaje u Zemlji; tako Allah navodi primjere.
He sent down water from the sky, so valleys flowed according to their measure, therefore the water flow brought forth the froth swollen upon it; and upon which they ignite the fire, to make ornaments and tools, from that too rises a similar froth; Allah illustrates that this is the example of the truth and the falsehood; the froth then bursts and disappears; and that which is of use to people, remains in the earth; this is how Allah illustrates the examples.
