I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit),
|
|
2. * |
By the raging hurricanes,
|
|
3. * |
Which scatter clouds to their destined places,
|
|
4. * |
Then separate them one from another,
|
|
5. * |
Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation,
|
|
6. * |
To clear or to warn.
|
|
7. * |
Most surely what you are threatened with must come to pass.
|
|
8. * |
So when the stars are made to lose their light,
|
|
9. * |
And when the heaven is rent asunder,
|
|
10. * |
And when the mountains are carried away as dust,
|
|
11. * |
And when the messengers are gathered at their appointed time
|
|
12. * |
To what day is the doom fixed?
|
|
13. * |
To the day of decision.
|
|
14. * |
And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is?
|
|
15. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
16. * |
Did We not destroy the former generations?
|
|
17. * |
Then did We follow them up with later ones.
|
|
18. * |
Even thus shall We deal with the guilty.
|
|
19. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
20. * |
Did We not create you from contemptible water?
|
|
21. * |
Then We placed it in a secure resting-place,
|
|
22. * |
Till an appointed term,
|
|
23. * |
So We proportion it-- how well are We at proportioning (things).
|
|
24. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
25. * |
Have We not made the earth to draw together to itself,
|
|
26. * |
The living and the dead,
|
|
27. * |
And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water?
|
|
28. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
29. * |
Walk on to that which you called a lie.
|
|
30. * |
Walk on to the covering having three branches,
|
|
31. * |
Neither having the coolness of the shade nor availing against the flame.
|
|
32. * |
Surely it sends up sparks like palaces,
|
|
33. * |
As if they were tawny camels.
|
|
34. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
35. * |
This is the day on which they shall not speak,
|
|
36. * |
And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses.
|
|
37. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
38. * |
This is the day of decision: We have gathered you and those of yore.
|
|
39. * |
So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now).
|
|
40. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
41. * |
Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be amid shades and fountains,
|
|
42. * |
And fruits such as they desire.
|
|
43. * |
Eat and drink pleasantly because of what you did.
|
|
44. * |
Surely thus do We reward the doers of good.
|
|
45. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
46. * |
Eat and enjoy yourselves for a little; surely you are guilty.
|
|
47. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
48. * |
And where it is said to them: Bow down, they do not bow down.
|
|
49. * |
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
|
|
50. * |
In what announcement, then, after it, will they believe?
