۞إِنَّ قَٰرُونَ كَانَ مِن قَوۡمِ مُوسَىٰ فَبَغَىٰ عَلَيۡهِمۡۖ وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُ مِنَ ٱلۡكُنُوزِ مَآ إِنَّ مَفَاتِحَهُۥ لَتَنُوٓأُ بِٱلۡعُصۡبَةِ أُوْلِي ٱلۡقُوَّةِ إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُۥ قَوۡمُهُۥ لَا تَفۡرَحۡۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡفَرِحِينَ
En vérité, Coré [Karoûn] était du peuple de Moïse mais il était empli de violence envers eux. Nous lui avions donné des trésors dont les clefs pesaient lourd à toute une bande de gens forts. Son peuple lui dit: «Ne te réjouis point. Car Allah n'aime pas les arrogants

(Now Korah was of Moses folk) He was Moses' cousin, (but he oppressed them) but he transgressed against Moses, Aaron and their folk. He said: �Moses has been given messengership and Aaron religious authority while have nothing; this I will not accept�, and he rejected Moses' prophethood (and We gave him so much treasure) wealth (that the stores thereof) the keys of his stores (would verily have been a burden for a troop of mighty men) 40 men carried the keys of his stores. (When his own folk) the folk of Moses (said unto him: Exult not) do not be too proud nor associate partners with Allah; (lo! Allah loveth not the exultant) Allah does not love those who are too proud because of their wealth;
وَٱبۡتَغِ فِيمَآ ءَاتَىٰكَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلدَّارَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةَۖ وَلَا تَنسَ نَصِيبَكَ مِنَ ٱلدُّنۡيَاۖ وَأَحۡسِن كَمَآ أَحۡسَنَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَيۡكَۖ وَلَا تَبۡغِ ٱلۡفَسَادَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُفۡسِدِينَ
Et recherche à travers ce qu'Allah t'a donné, la Demeure dernière. Et n'oublie pas ta part en cette vie. Et sois bienfaisant comme Allah a été bienfaisant envers toi. Et ne recherche pas la corruption sur terre. Car Allah n'aime point les corrupteurs»

(But seek the abode of the Hereafter) Paradise (in that which Allah hath given you) through that which Allah has given you of wealth (and neglect not thy portion of the world) do not leave your portion in the Hereafter because of your portion in this worldly life; it is also said: your portion of this worldly life will not diminish because of spending from it for the Hereafter, (and be thou kind) to the poor and needy (even as Allah hath been kind to thee) by giving you wealth, (and seek not corruption in the earth) do not commit transgressions and oppose the command of the Messenger Moses, Allah give him peace; (lo! Allah loveth not corrupters) who commit transgressions,
قَالَ إِنَّمَآ أُوتِيتُهُۥ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمٍ عِندِيٓۚ أَوَلَمۡ يَعۡلَمۡ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَدۡ أَهۡلَكَ مِن قَبۡلِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلۡقُرُونِ مَنۡ هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنۡهُ قُوَّةٗ وَأَكۡثَرُ جَمۡعٗاۚ وَلَا يُسۡـَٔلُ عَن ذُنُوبِهِمُ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ
Il dit: «C'est par une science que je possède que ceci m'est venu». Ne savait-il pas qu'avant lui Allah avait fait périr des générations supérieures à lui en force et plus riches en biens? Et les criminels ne seront pas interrogés sur leurs péchés»

(Knew he not) i.e. Korah (that Allah had destroyed already of the generations before him men who were mightier than Him in strength) who were physically stronger than him (and greater about following) and greater in respect to the wealth and men they had? (The guilty are not questioned of their sins) the idolaters will not be asked on the Day of Judgement about their sins because they will be known through distinct marks.
