Chapter 83, 36 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto the defrauders:
Woe to those that deal in fraud, -
Wehe den das Maß Kürzenden,
وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
Those who when they take the measure from mankind demand it full,
Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,
die, wenn sie sich von den Menschen zumessen lassen, sich volles Maß geben lassen,
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ
But if they measure unto them or weight for them, they cause them loss.
But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.
wenn sie ihnen aber zumessen oder wägen, Verlust zufügen.
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
Do such (men) not consider that they will be raised again
Do they not think that they will be called to account? -
Glauben jene nicht, daß sie auferweckt werden
أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
Unto an Awful Day,
On a Mighty Day,
zu einem gewaltigen Tag,
لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
The day when (all) mankind stand before the Lord of the Worlds ?
A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?
am Tag, da die Menschen sich um des Herrn der Weltenbewohner willen aufstellen werden?
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلنَّاسُ لِرَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
Nay, but the record of the vile is in Sijjin -
Nay! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin.
Keineswegs! Das Buch der Sittenlosen ist wahrlich in Siggin.
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ ٱلْفُجَّارِ لَفِى سِجِّينٍ
Ah! what will convey unto thee what Sijjin is! -
And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was Siggin ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ
A written record.
(There is) a Register (fully) inscribed.
(Es ist) ein Buch mit festen Eintragungen.
كِتَٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
Woe unto the repudiators on that day!
Woe, that Day, to those that deny -
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern,
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Those who deny the Day of Judgment
Those that deny the Day of Judgment.
die den Tag des Gerichts für Lüge erklären!
ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ
Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,
And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner!
Und nur derjenige erklärt ihn für Lüge, der Übertretungen begeht und ein Sünder ist.
وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old.
When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!"
Wenn ihm Unsere Zeichen verlesen werden, sagt er: "(Es sind) Fabeln der Früheren."
إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ءَايَٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts.
By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do!
Keineswegs! Vielmehr hat sich das, was sie zu erwerben pflegten, über ihren Herzen angesetzt.
كَلَّا بَلْ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ
Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from (the mercy of) their Lord.
Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled.
Keineswegs! Sie werden von ihrem Herrn an jenem Tag bestimmt abgeschirmt sein.
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ
Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,
Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell.
Hierauf werden sie bestimmt dem Höllenbrand ausgesetzt sein.
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
And it will be said (unto them): This is that which ye used to deny.
Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false!
Hierauf wird gesagt werden: "Das ist das, was ihr für Lüge zu erklären pflegtet."
ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
Nay, but the record of the righteous is in 'Illiyin -
Nay, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin.
Keineswegs! Das Buch der Frommen ist wahrlich in 'Illiyyin.
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ ٱلْأَبْرَارِ لَفِى عِلِّيِّينَ
Ah, what will convey unto thee what 'Illiyin is! -
And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was 'Illiyyun ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ
A written record,
(There is) a Register (fully) inscribed,
(Es ist) ein Buch mit festen Eintragungen,
كِتَٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
Attested by those who are brought near (unto their Lord).
To which bear witness those Nearest (to Allah).
in das die (Allah) Nahegestellten Einsicht nehmen.
يَشْهَدُهُ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ
Lo! the righteous verily are in delight,
Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:
Die Frommen werden wahrlich in Wonne sein,
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ
On couches, gazing,
On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things):
auf überdachten Liegen (gelehnt), und blicken um sich.
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
Thou wilt know in their faces the radiance of delight.
Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss.
Du erkennst in ihren Gesichtern das Strahlen der Wonne.
تَعْرِفُ فِى وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
They are given to drink of a pure wine, sealed,
Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:
Ihnen wird von versiegeltem Nektar zu trinken gegeben,
يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍ مَّخْتُومٍ
Whose seal is musk - for this let (all) those strive who strive for bliss -
The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations:
dessen Siegel Moschus ist -, und darum sollen die Wettbewerber wettkämpfen -,
خِتَٰمُهُۥ مِسْكٌ وَفِى ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ ٱلْمُتَنَٰفِسُونَ
And mixed with water of Tasnim,
With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim:
und dessen Beimischung Tasnim ist,
وَمِزَاجُهُۥ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ
A spring whence those brought near (to Allah) drink.
A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to Allah.
aus einer Quelle, aus der die (Allah) Nahegestellten trinken.
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ
Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed,
Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed,
Gewiß, diejenigen, die Übeltaten begingen, pflegten über diejenigen zu lachen, die glauben,
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا۟ كَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَضْحَكُونَ
And wink one to another when they passed them;
And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery);
und, wenn sie an ihnen vorbeikamen, einander zuzuzwinkern.
وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ
And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting;
And when they returned to their own people, they would return jesting;
Und, wenn sie zu ihren Angehörigen zurückkehrten, kehrten sie zurück, indem sie es sich wohl sein ließen.
وَإِذَا ٱنقَلَبُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِمُ ٱنقَلَبُوا۟ فَكِهِينَ
And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray.
And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!"
Und, wenn sie sie sahen, sagten sie: "Diese gehen fürwahr in die Irre."
وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَضَآلُّونَ
Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.
But they had not been sent as keepers over them!
Dabei waren sie doch nicht als Hüter über sie gesandt worden.
وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَٰفِظِينَ
This day it is those who believe who have the laugh of disbelievers,
But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers:
Heute aber lachen diejenigen, die glauben, über die Ungläubigen,
فَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ
On high couches, gazing.
On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things).
auf überdachten Liegen (gelehnt), und blicken um sich.
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
Are not the disbelievers paid for what they used to do ?
Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did?
Sind die Ungläubigen nicht doch belohnt worden für das, was sie zu tun pflegten?
هَلْ ثُوِّبَ ٱلْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ
