In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.
فَاَوْجَسَ فِیْ نَفْسِہٖ خِیْفَۃً مُّوْسٰی
Fa awjasa fee nafsihee kheefatan moosaa
So then Moosa became nervous, a little anxious.
قُلْنَا لاَ تَخَفْ اِنَّکَ اَنْتَ الْاَعْلٰی
qulnaa laa takhaf innaka antal aa' ' laa
We (Allah) said 'worry not. You will positively have the Upper hand.
وَ اَلْقِ مَا فِیْ یَمِیْنِکَ تَلْقَفْ مَا صَنَعُوْا اِنَّمَا صَنَعُوْا کَیْدُ سٰحِرٍ وَلاَ یُفْلِحُ السّٰحِرُ حَیْثُ اَتٰی

Then the sorcerers put their foreheads on The ground and announced 'We believe In the Lord of Moosa and Haroon'

Thus They there were defeated and brought low.
فَوَقَعَ الْحَقُّ وَ بَطَلَ مَا کَانُوا یَعْمَلُوْنَ
fa-waqa-a'l h'aqqu wa bat' ala maa kaanoo yaa'-maloon
Thus the truth was established and that which they were doing was made vain

fa-awh aynaa ilaa moosaa aniz'rib bi-a' s' aakal bah'ra
Then We inspired Moosa Saying: 'Strike The sea with your staff'.
