Al-A'raf 137

وَاَوْرَثْنَا الْقَوْمَ الَّذ۪ينَ كَانُوا يُسْتَضْعَفُونَ مَشَارِقَ الْاَرْضِ وَمَغَارِبَهَا الَّت۪ي بَارَكْنَا ف۪يهَاۜ وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ الْحُسْنٰى عَلٰى بَن۪ٓي اِسْرَٓاء۪يلَ بِمَا صَبَرُواۜ وَدَمَّرْنَا مَا كَانَ يَصْنَعُ فِرْعَوْنُ وَقَوْمُهُ وَمَا كَانُوا يَعْرِشُونَ ۝١٣٧

137And We made the people who had once been despised and oppressed masters of the whole of those lands, from east to west, which We had blessed; and thus your Lord's good promise was fulfilled because of the endurance the Children of Israel had shown. And We razed to the ground, burying them in history, the palaces, vineyards, and buildings that Pharaoh and his dynasty took pride in.
