Chapter 100, 11 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
By the racers, panting,
Bei den schnaubend Rennenden,
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
فالموريات قدحا
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
den (mit ihren Hufen) Funken Schlagenden,
Then those that produce fire striking,
فالمغيرات صبحا
And the chargers at dawn,
den am Morgen Angreifenden,
Then those that make raids at morn,
فأثرن به نقعا
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
die darin Staub aufwirbeln,
Then thereby raise dust,
فوسطن به جمعا
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
die dann mitten in die Ansammlung eindringen!
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Der Mensch ist seinem Herrn gegenüber wahrlich undankbar,
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
und er (selbst) ist darüber wahrlich Zeuge.
And most surely he is a witness of that.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
Und er ist in seiner Liebe zum (eigenen) Besten wahrlich heftig.
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
Weiß er denn nicht? Wenn durchwühlt wird, was in den Gräbern ist,
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
وحصل ما في الصدور
And that within the breasts is obtained,
und herausgeholt wird, was in den Brüsten ist,...
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
ihr Herr wird an jenem Tag ihrer wahrlich Kundig sein.
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
