1.  *     Woe to those that deal in fraud,-
 
2.  *     Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,
 
3.  *     But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.
 
4.  *     Do they not think that they will be called to account?-
 
5.  *     On a Mighty Day,
 
6.  *     A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?
 
7.  *     Day! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin.
 
8.  *     And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?
 
9.  *     (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed.
 
10.  *     Woe, that Day, to those that deny-
 
11.  *     Those that deny the Day of Judgment.
 
12.  *     And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner!
 
13.  *     When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!"
 
14.  *     By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do!
 
15.  *     Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled.
 
16.  *     Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell.
 
17.  *     Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false!
 
18.  *     Day, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin.
 
19.  *     And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is?
 
20.  *     (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed,
 
21.  *     To which bear witness those Nearest (to Allah..
 
22.  *     Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:
 
23.  *     On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things):
 
24.  *     Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss.
 
25.  *     Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:
 
26.  *     The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations:
 
27.  *     With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim:
 
28.  *     A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to Allah.
 
29.  *     Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed,
 
30.  *     And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery);
 
31.  *     And when they returned to their own people, they would return jesting;
 
32.  *     And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!"
 
33.  *     But they had not been sent as keepers over them!
 
34.  *     But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers:
 
35.  *     On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things).
 
36.  *     Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did?
