Chapter 78, 40 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Whereof do they question one another ?
Concerning what are they disputing?
Wonach fragen sie sich?
عَمَّ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
(It is) of the awful tidings,
Concerning the Great News,
Nach der gewaltigen Kunde,
عَنِ ٱلنَّبَإِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
Concerning which they are in disagreement.
About which they cannot agree.
über die sie sich uneinig sind.
ٱلَّذِى هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ
Nay, but they will come to know!
Verily, they shall soon (come to) know!
Keineswegs! Sie werden (es noch) erfahren.
كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ
Nay, again, but they will come to know!
Verily, verily they shall soon (come to) know!
Abermals: Keineswegs! Sie werden (es noch) erfahren.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ

أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِهَٰدًا
And the high hills bulwarks ?
And the mountains as pegs?
und die Berge zu Pfählen?
وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا

And (have We not) created you in pairs,
Und Wir haben euch als Paare erschaffen.
وَخَلَقْنَٰكُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا

And (have We not) built over you the seven firmaments,
Und Wir haben über euch sieben feste (Himmel) aufgebaut.
وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا
And have appointed a dazzling lamp,
And placed (therein) a Light of Splendour?
Und Wir haben einen hell glühenden Leuchtkörper gemacht.
وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا
And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water,
And do We not send down from the clouds water in abundance,
Und Wir haben von den Regenwolken sich ergießendes Wasser herabkommen lassen,
وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُعْصِرَٰتِ مَآءً ثَجَّاجًا

They called Our revelations false with strong denial.

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ صَفًّا لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا
That is the True Day. So whoso will should seek recourse unto his Lord.
That Day will be the sure Reality: Therefore, whoso will, let him take a (straight) return to his Lord!
