In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Rivalry in worldly increase distracteth you
Die Vermehrung lenkt euch ab,
Abundance diverts you,
أَلْهَىٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ
Until ye come to the graves.
bis ihr die Friedhöfe besucht.
Until you come to the graves.
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Keineswegs! Ihr werdet (es noch) erfahren.
Nay! you shall soon know,
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Abermals: Keineswegs! Ihr werdet (es noch) erfahren.
Nay! Nay! you shall soon know.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Nay, would that ye knew (now) with a sure knowledge!
Keineswegs! Wenn ihr es nur mit dem Wissen der Gewißheit wüßtet!
Nay! if you had known with a certain knowledge,
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
For ye will behold hell - fire.
Ihr werdet ganz gewiß den Höllenbrand sehen.

لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ
Aye, ye will behold it with sure vision.
Abermals: Ihr werdet ihn mit dem Auge der Gewißheit sehen.
Then you shall most certainly see it with the eye of certainty;
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
Then, on that day, ye will be asked concerning pleasure.
Hierauf werdet ihr an jenem Tag ganz gewiß nach der Wonne gefragt werden.
Then on that day you shall most certainly be questioned about the boons.
ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
