فَأَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ أَنِ ٱضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلْبَحْرَ ۖ فَٱنفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرْقٍ كَٱلطَّوْدِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ

Thereupon We inspired Moses thus: "Strike the sea with thy staff!" - whereupon it parted, and each part appeared like a mountain vast.33
  - Mohammad Asad

See {20: 77} and the corresponding note [61]. Cf. also the Biblical account (Exodus xiv, 21), according to which "the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided".

Then We revealed Our will to Musa: "Strike the sea with your staff," and the sea was cleft asunder, each part stood like a mighty mountain.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
So We inspired Moses: 'Strike the sea with your staff,' and the sea was split, each part was like a huge mountain.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Then We inspired Moses, saying: Smite the sea with thy staff. And it parted, and each part was as a mountain vast.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Then We told Moses by inspiration: "Strike the sea with thy rod." So it divided and each separate part become like the huge firm mass of a mountain.
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
