Translation
When the two groups saw each other, the people of Moses said, “Surely, we are captured.”
Tafsir
Pharaoh with his army catches up with Hazrat Musa 'alaihis-salâm'. When the two groups saw each other, some of Hazrat Musa's men expressed their fear and said, "Now we have been caught. Because Pharaoh was afraid that his people and the Children of Israel would follow Hazrat Moses, he would slaughter those of the Children of Israel who were subject to Hazrat Moses in order to intimidate his people.
It was because of this fear of being slaughtered that they said, 'We have now been captured by Pharaoh, out of fear of being slaughtered from among the Children of Israel.
What is said in the video
Pharaoh will catch up with Moses at the seashore. We are now coming to the verses. Let us not tell it from the beginning; let us tell it with the verses. When the two groups saw each other, here we are already, when the two groups saw each other, Moses' men said: we have been caught. We have been caught. Pharaoh, with his army, catches up with Moses (peace be upon him). When these two groups saw each other, some of Moses' men voiced their fear and said: now we have been caught. Because, fearing that his people and the Children of Israel would follow Moses, to intimidate his people he was going to kill those of the Children of Israel who followed Moses (peace be upon him).
So it is out of these two fears of being killed, out of this fear of being killed, that among the Children of Israel, with the fear of being killed, by Pharaoh, they said: now we have been caught.
Some conversations are also (?). Between Moses, between Moses and the Children of Israel: we followed you and set out. Sir, now they are going to kill us. Sir, if only we had not set out, and the like; voicing some of their fears, words rebelling against Moses were also used.
