وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَـٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَـٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ
Wafee moos a i th arsa l n a hu il a firAAawna bisul ta nin mubeen in
AND IN [the story of Pharaoh and] Moses, too, [We left the same message:26 for] when We sent him unto Pharaoh with [Our] manifest authority,
  - Mohammad Asad

The above interpolations are based on the consensus of most of the classical commentators regarding the phrase "And in Moses, too".

There is also a sign for you in the story of Musa (Moses): when We sent him to Fir'on (Pharaoh) with clear authority,
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
And in 'the story of' Moses 'was another lesson,' when We sent him to Pharaoh with compelling proof,
  - Mustafa Khattab
And in Moses (too, there is a portent) when We sent him unto Pharaoh with clear warrant,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
And in Moses (was another Sign): Behold We sent him to Pharaoh with authority manifest. 5016
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Cf. xliv. 17-31. The story of Moses and Pharaoh is here just referred to. The points emphasized here are: (1) that Moses had manifest authority, yet Pharaoh doubted; (2) that Pharaoh's reliance was on his Chiefs and his forces, but they could not help when his doom came; and (3) that in the most extraordinary and incredible ways (judged by ordinary human standards), his arrogance and his reliance on his Chiefs and forces was his undoing.
