Go to Pharaoh

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ ١٥ إِذْ نَادَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ بِٱلْوَادِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى ١٦ ٱذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ ١٧ فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَىٰٓ أَن تَزَكَّىٰ ١٨ وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَتَخْشَىٰ ١٩

The meaning, simply

Has the story of Moses, peace be upon him, reached you, O Prophet, peace be upon him? When his Lord called him in the holy valley of Tuwa: 'Go to Pharaoh, for he has transgressed, and say to him: Would you like to purify yourself, and let me guide you to your Lord so you will fear Him?'
