1.  *     Praise the name of thy Lord, the most high;
 
2.  *     Who hath created, and completely formed his creatures:
 
3.  *     And Who determineth them to various ends, and directeth them to attain the same;
 
4.  *     and who produceth the pasture for cattle,
 
5.  *     and afterwards rendereth the same dry stubble of a dusky hue.
 
6.  *     We will enable thee to rehearse our revelations; and thou shalt not forget any part thereof,
 
7.  *     except what God shall please; for He knoweth that which is manifest, and that which is hidden.
 
8.  *     And We will facilitate unto thee the most easy way.
 
9.  *     Wherefore admonish thy people, if thy admonition shall be profitable unto them.
 
10.  *     Whoso feareth God, he will be admonished:
 
11.  *     But the most wretched unbeliever will turn away therefrom;
 
12.  *     who shall be cast to be broiled in the greater fire of hell,
 
13.  *     wherein he shall not die, neither shall he live.
 
14.  *     Now hath he attained felicity who is purified by faith,
 
15.  *     and who remembereth the name of his Lord, and prayeth.
 
16.  *     But ye prefer this present life:
 
17.  *     Yet the life to come is better, and more durable.
 
18.  *     Verily this is written in the ancient books,
 
19.  *     the books of Abraham and Moses.
