1.  *     (Muhammad), glorify the Name of your lord, the Most High,
 
2.  *     Who has created (all things) proportionately,
 
3.  *     decreed their destinies, and provided them with guidance.
 
4.  *     It is He who has caused the grass to grow,
 
5.  *     then caused it to wither away.
 
6.  *     We shall teach you (the Quran) and you will not forget it
 
7.  *     unless God wills it to be otherwise. He knows all that is made public and all that remains hidden.
 
8.  *     We shall make all your tasks easy.
 
9.  *     Therefore, keep on preaching as long as it is of benefit.
 
10.  *     Those who have fear of God will benefit
 
11.  *     but the reprobates will turn away
 
12.  *     and suffer the heat of the great fire
 
13.  *     wherein they will neither live nor die.
 
14.  *     Lasting happiness will be for those who purify themselves,
 
15.  *     remember the name of the Lord, and pray to Him.
 
16.  *     However, (the disbelievers) prefer the worldly life
 
17.  *     even though the life hereafter will be better and will last forever.
 
18.  *     This is what is written in the ancient heavenly Books,
 
19.  *     the Scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
