Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Lo! it is closed in on them
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
It shall be made into a vault over them,
In outstretched columns.
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In columns outstretched.
