1. |
I swear by the heaven and the comer by night;
|
2. |
And what will make you 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. |
Most surely He is able to return him (to life).
|
9. |
On the day when hidden things shall be made manifest,
|
10. |
He shall have neither strength nor helper.
|
11. |
I swear by the raingiving heavens,
|
12. |
And the earth splitting (with plants);
|
13. |
Most surely it is a decisive word,
|
14. |
And it is no joke.
|
15. |
Surely they will make a scheme,
|
16. |
And I (too) will make a scheme.
|
17. |
So grant the unbelievers a respite: let them alone for a while.
