No! I swear by this land,
|
|
2. * |
and thou art a lodger in this land;
|
|
3. * |
by the begetter, and that he begot,
|
|
4. * |
indeed, We created man in trouble.
|
|
5. * |
What, does he think none has power over him,
|
|
6. * |
saying, 'I have consumed wealth abundant'?
|
|
7. * |
What, does he think none has seen him?
|
|
8. * |
Have We not appointed to him two eyes,
|
|
9. * |
and a tongue, and two lips,
|
|
10. * |
and guided him on the two highways?
|
|
11. * |
Yet he has not assaulted the steep;
|
|
12. * |
and what shall teach thee what is the steep?
|
|
13. * |
The freeing of a slave,
|
|
14. * |
or giving food upon a day of hunger
|
|
15. * |
to an orphan near of kin
|
|
16. * |
or a needy man in misery;
|
|
17. * |
then that he become of those who believe and counsel each other to be steadfast, and counsel each other to be merciful.
|
|
18. * |
Those are the Companions of the Right Hand.
|
|
19. * |
And those who disbelieve in Our signs, they are the Companions of the Left Hand;
|
|
20. * |
over them is a Fire covered down.
