1 | By the loosed ones successively | |
2 | storming tempestuously | |
3 | by the scatterers scattering | |
4 | and the severally severing | |
5 | and those hurling a reminder | |
6 | excusing or warning, | |
7 | surely that which you are promised is about to fall! | |
8 | When the stars shall be extinguished, | |
9 | when heaven shall be split | |
10 | when the mountains shall be scattered | |
11 | and when the Messengers' time is set, | |
12 | to what day shall they be delayed? | |
13 | To the Day of Decision. | |
14 | And what shall teach thee what is the Day of Decision? | |
15 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
16 | Did We not destroy the ancients, | |
17 | and then follow them with the later folk? | |
18 | So We serve the sinners. | |
19 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
20 | Did We not create you of a mean water, | |
21 | that We laid within a sure lodging | |
22 | till a known term decreed? | |
23 | We determined; excellent determiners are We. | |
24 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
25 | Made We not the earth to be a housing | |
26 | for the living and for the dead? | |
27 | Set We not therein soaring mountains? Sated you with sweetest water? | |
28 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
29 | Depart to that you cried was lies! | |
30 | Depart to a triple-massing shadow | |
31 | unshading against the blazing flame | |
32 | that shoots sparks like dry faggots, | |
33 | sparks like to golden herds. | |
34 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
35 | This is the day they shall not speak | |
36 | neither be given leave, and excuse themselves. | |
37 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
38 | 'This is the Day of Decision; We have joined you with the ancients; | |
39 | if you have a trick, try you now to trick Me!' | |
40 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
41 | Truly the godfearing shall dwell amid shades and fountains, | |
42 | and such fruits as their hearts desire: | |
43 | 'Eat and drink, with wholesome appetite, for that you were working.' | |
44 | Even so do We recompense the good-doers. | |
45 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
46 | 'Eat and take your joy a little; you are sinners!' | |
47 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
48 | When it is said to them, 'Prostrate yourselves!' they prostrate not. | |
49 | Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! | |
50 | In what discourse after this will they believe? |
