11 Inna lamma tagha almao hamalnakum fee aljariyati

11 Lo! when the waters rose, We carried you upon the ship

12 LinajAAalaha lakum tathkiratan wataAAiyaha othunun waAAiyatun

13 And when the trumpet shall sound one blast

14 Wahumilati alardu waaljibalu fadukkata dakkatan wahidatan

14 And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash,

15 Fayawmaithin waqaAAati alwaqiAAatu

16 Wainshaqqati alssamao fahiya yawmaithin wahiyatun

16 And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will be frail.

18 On that day ye will be exposed; not a secret of you will be hidden.

19 Faamma man ootiya kitabahu biyameenihi fayaqoolu haomu iqraoo kitabiyah

19 Then, as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book!

20 Innee thanantu annee mulaqin hisabiyah

25 Waamma man ootiya kitabahu bishimalihi fayaqoolu ya laytanee lam oota kitabiyah

27 Oh, would that it had been death!

28 Ma aghna AAannee maliyah

28 My wealth hath not availed me,

29 Halaka AAannee sultaniyah

29 My power hath gone from me.

30 Khuthoohu faghulloohu

30 (It will be said): Take him and fetter him

31 Thumma aljaheema salloohu

31 And then expose him to hell - fire

32 Thumma fee silsilatin tharAAuha sabAAoona thiraAAan faoslukoohu

32 And then insert him in a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits.

33 Innahu kana la yuminu biAllahi alAAatheemi

33 Lo! He used not to believe in Allah the Tremendous,

34 Wala yahuddu AAala taAAami almiskeeni

34 And urged not on the feeding of the wretched.

35 Falaysa lahu alyawma hahuna hameemun

35 Therefor hath he no lover here this day,

36 Wala taAAamun illa min ghisleenin

36 Nor any food save filth

43 Tanzeelun min rabbi alAAalameena

44 Walaw taqawwala AAalayna baAAda alaqaweeli

44 And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us,

45 Laakhathna minhu bialyameeni

45 We assuredly had taken him by the right hand

46 Thumma laqataAAna minhu alwateena

46 And then severed his life - artery,

47 Fama minkum min ahadin AAanhu hajizeena

47 And not one of you could have held Us off from him.

48 Wainnahu latathkiratun lilmuttaqeena

48 And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil).

49 Wainna lanaAAlamu anna minkum mukaththibeena

49 And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it).

50 Wainnahu lahasratun AAala alkafireena

50 And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers.

51 Wainnahu lahaqqu alyaqeeni

51 And lo! it is absolute truth.
