1.  *     By the heaven and the Morning Star
 
2.  *     - Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is!
 
3.  *     - The piercing Star!
 
4.  *     No human soul but hath a guardian over it.
 
5.  *     So let man consider from what he is created.
 
6.  *     He is created from a gushing fluid
 
7.  *     That issued from between the loins and ribs.
 
8.  *     Lo! He verily is Able to return him (unto life)
 
9.  *     On the day when hidden thoughts shall be searched out.
 
10.  *     Then will he have no might nor any helper.
 
11.  *     By the heaven which giveth the returning rain,
 
12.  *     And the earth which splitteth (with the growth of trees and plants)
 
13.  *     Lo! this (Qur'an) is a conclusive word,
 
14.  *     It is no pleasantry.
 
15.  *     Lo! they plot a plot (against thee, O Muhammad)
 
16.  *     And I plot a plot (against them).
 
17.  *     So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal thou gently with them for a while.
