Chapter 84, 25 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the heaven is split asunder
Wenn der Himmel sich spaltet
When the sky has split [open]
إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ
And attentive to her Lord in fear,
und auf seinen Herrn hört - und es ist ja rechtens für ihn -,
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so]
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
And when the earth is spread out
und wenn die Erde ausgedehnt wird
And when the earth has been extended
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
And hath cast out all that was in her, and is empty
und herauswirft, was in ihr ist, und sich entleert
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ
And attentive to her Lord in fear!
und auf ihren Herrn hört - und es ist ja rechtens für sie ...
And has responded to its Lord and was obligated [to do so] -
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
Thou, verily, O man, art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).
O du Mensch, du mühst dich hart zu deinem Herrn hin, und so wirst du Ihm begegnen.
O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ
Then whoso is given his account in his right hand
Was nun jemanden angeht, dem dann sein Buch in seine Rechte gegeben wird.
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ
He truly will receive an easy reckoning
der wird einer leichten Abrechnung unterzogen,
He will be judged with an easy account
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا
And will return unto his folk in joy.
und er wird erfreut zu seinen Angehörigen zurückkehren.
And return to his people in happiness.
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
But whoso is given his account behind his back,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dem sein Buch hinter seinem Rücken gegeben wird,
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ
He surely will invoke destruction
der wird nach Vernichtung rufen
He will cry out for destruction
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا
And be thrown to scorching fire.
und der Feuerglut ausgesetzt sein.
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا
He verily lived joyous with his folk,
Er war ja froh inmitten seiner Angehörigen.
Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).
Er meinte ja, daß er nicht zurückkehren würde.
Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].
إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!
Ja doch! Gewiß, sein Herr sieht ihn wohl.
But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا
Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,
Nein! Ich schwöre beim Abendrot
So I swear by the twilight glow
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ
And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,
und der Nacht und dem, was sie zusammentreibt,
And [by] the night and what it envelops
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
And by the moon when she is at the full,
und dem Mond, wenn er voll geworden ist.

وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ
That ye shall journey on from plane to plane.
Ihr werdet eine Schicht nach der anderen besteigen.
[That] you will surely experience state after state.
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
What aileth them, then, that they believe not
Was ist denn mit ihnen, daß sie nicht glauben
So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?
und, wenn ihnen der Qur'an vorgelesen wird, sich nicht niederwerfen?
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ
Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;
Aber nein! Diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, erklären (ihn) für Lüge.
But those who have disbelieved deny,
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ
And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.
Doch Allah weiß sehr wohl, was sie (in ihren Herzen) für sich behalten.
And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ
So give them tidings of a painful doom,
So verkünde ihnen schmerzhafte Strafe,
So give them tidings of a painful punishment,
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

außer denjenigen, die glauben und rechtschaffene Werke tun; für sie wird es einen Lohn geben, der nicht aufhört.
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ
