I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit),
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والمرسلات عرفا
Bei den Entsandten, die wie eine Mähne aufeinanderfolgen,
By those [winds] sent forth in gusts
وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًا
Chapter 77, 50 verses
I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit),
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والمرسلات عرفا
Bei den Entsandten, die wie eine Mähne aufeinanderfolgen,
By those [winds] sent forth in gusts
وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًا
By the raging hurricanes,
فالعاصفات عصفا
den einen Sturm Entfesselnden
And the winds that blow violently
فَٱلْعَٰصِفَٰتِ عَصْفًا
Which scatter clouds to their destined places,
والناشرات نشرا
und den alles Ausbreitenden,
And [by] the winds that spread [clouds]
وَٱلنَّٰشِرَٰتِ نَشْرًا
Then separate them one from another,
فالفارقات فرقا
den klar Trennenden,
And those [angels] who bring criterion
فَٱلْفَٰرِقَٰتِ فَرْقًا
Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation,
فالملقيات ذكرا
den Ermahnung Überbringenden
And those [angels] who deliver a message
فَٱلْمُلْقِيَٰتِ ذِكْرًا
To clear or to warn.
عذرا أو نذرا
zur Pflichterfüllung oder zur Warnung!
As justification or warning,
عُذْرًا أَوْ نُذْرًا
Most surely what you are threatened with must come to pass.
إنما توعدون لواقع
Gewiß, was euch versprochen wird, wird sicher hereinbrechen.
Indeed, what you are promised is to occur.
إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَٰقِعٌ
So when the stars are made to lose their light,
فإذا النجوم طمست
Wenn dann die Sterne ausgelöscht werden

ويل يومئذ للمكذبين
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!

Did We not destroy the former generations?
ألم نهلك الأولين
Haben Wir nicht die Früheren vernichtet?
Did We not destroy the former peoples?

ألم نخلقكم من ماء مهين
Haben Wir euch nicht aus verächtlichem Wasser erschaffen,
Did We not create you from a liquid disdained?
أَلَمْ نَخْلُقكُّم مِّن مَّآءٍ مَّهِينٍ
Then We placed it in a secure resting - place,
فجعلناه في قرار مكين
das Wir dann in einem festen Aufenthaltsort haben sein lassen,

فَجَعَلْنَٰهُ فِى قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ
Till an appointed term,
إلى قدر معلوم
bis zu einem bekannten Zeitpunkt?

ألم نجعل الأرض كفاتا
Haben Wir nicht die Erde zu einem Ort der Aufbewahrung gemacht
Have We not made the earth a container
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ كِفَاتًا
The living and the dead,
أحياء وأمواتا
- für die Lebenden und die Toten -
Of the living and the dead?
أَحْيَآءً وَأَمْوَٰتًا
And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water?
وجعلنا فيها رواسي شامخات وأسقيناكم ماء فراتا
und auf ihr festgegründete, hoch aufragende Berge gemacht und euch frisches Wasser zu trinken gegeben?
And We placed therein lofty, firmly set mountains and have given you to drink sweet water.
وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ شَٰمِخَٰتٍ وَأَسْقَيْنَٰكُم مَّآءً فُرَاتًا
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
ويل يومئذ للمكذبين
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ

لا ظليل ولا يغني من اللهب
der kein (wirklicher) Schattenspender ist und nicht (als Schutz) gegen die Flammen nützt."
[But having] no cool shade and availing not against the flame."
لَّا ظَلِيلٍ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ
Surely it sends up sparks like palaces,
إنها ترمي بشرر كالقصر
Sie wirft mit Funken wie Schlösser,
Indeed, it throws sparks [as huge] as a fortress,
إِنَّهَا تَرْمِى بِشَرَرٍ كَٱلْقَصْرِ
As if they were tawny camels.
كأنه جمالت صفر
als wären sie gelbe Kamele.
As if they were yellowish [black] camels.
كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَٰلَتٌ صُفْرٌ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.

- "Eßt und trinkt als wohlbekömmlich für das, was ihr zu tun pflegtet."
[Being told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do."
كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
Surely thus do We reward the doers of good.
إنا كذلك نجزي المحسنين
