| 1. * | By the heaven and the Comer by night! |
| 2. * | And what will make thee know what the Comer by night is? |
| 3. * | The star of piercing brightness -- |
| 4. * | There is not a soul but over it is a keeper. |
| 5. * | So let man consider of what he is created. |
| 6. * | He is created of water pouring forth, |
| 7. * | Coming from between the back and the ribs. |
| 8. * | Surely he is able to return him (to life). |
| 9. * | On the day when hidden things are manifested, |
| 10. * | Then he will have no strength nor helper. |
| 11. * | By the cloud giving rain, |
| 12. * | And the earth opening (with herbage)! |
| 13. * | Surely it is a decisive word, |
| 14. * | And it is not a joke. |
| 15. * | Surely they plan a plan. |
| 16. * | And I plan a plan. |
| 17. * | So grant the disbelievers a respite -- let them alone for a while. |
