| 1. * | Woe to the cheaters! |
| 2. * | Who, when they take the measure (of their dues) from men, take it fully, |
| 3. * | And when they measure out to others or weigh out for them, they give less than is due. |
| 4. * | Do they not think that they will be raised again, |
| 5. * | To a mighty day? -- |
| 6. * | The day when men will stand before the Lord of the worlds. |
| 7. * | Nay, surely the record of the wicked is in the prison. |
| 8. * | And what will make thee know what the prison is? |
| 9. * | It is a written book. |
| 10. * | Woe on that day to the rejectors! |
| 11. * | Who give the lie to the day of Judgment. |
| 12. * | And none gives the lie to it but every exceeder of limits, every sinful one; |
| 13. * | When Our messages are recited to him, he says: Stories of those of yore! |
| 14. * | Nay, rather, what they earned is rust upon their hearts. |
| 15. * | Nay, surely they are that day debarred form their Lord. |
| 16. * | Then they will surely enter the burning Fire. |
| 17. * | Then it will be said: This is what you gave the lie to. |
| 18. * | Nay, surely the record of the righteous is in the highest places. |
| 19. * | And what will make thee know what the highest places are? |
| 20. * | It is a written book. |
| 21. * | Those drawn near (to Allah) witness it. |
| 22. * | Surely the righteous are in bliss, |
| 23. * | On raised couches, gazing -- |
| 24. * | Thou recognizest in their faces the brightness of bliss. |
| 25. * | They are given to drink of a pure drink, sealed. |
| 26. * | The sealing of it is (with) musk. And for that let the aspirers aspire. |
| 27. * | And it is tempered with water coming from above -- |
| 28. * | A fountain from which drink those drawn near (to Allah). |
| 29. * | Surely they who are guilty used to laugh at those who believe. |
| 30. * | And when they passed by them, they winked at one another, |
| 31. * | And when they returned to their people, they returned exulting. |
| 32. * | And when they saw them, they said: Surely these are in error -- |
| 33. * | And they were not sent as keepers over them. |
| 34. * | So this day those who believe laugh at the disbelievers -- |
| 35. * | On raised couches, gazing. |
| 36. * | Surely the disbelievers are rewarded as they did. |
