18 And the moon when it grows full,

19 Latarkabunna tabaqan AAan tabaqin

19 That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.

20 Fama lahum la yuminoona

20 But what is the matter with them that they do not believe,

21 Waitha quria AAalayhimu alquranu la yasjudoona

21 And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?

21 And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance?

22 Bali allatheena kafaroo yukaththiboona

22 Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;

22 Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.

23 WaAllahu aAAlamu bima yooAAoona

23 And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.

23 And Allah knows best what they hide,

24 Fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin

24 So give them tidings of a painful doom,

24 So announce to them a painful punishment~
