إِنَّا كَفَيْنَٰكَ ٱلْمُسْتَهْزِءِينَ
Those who set up another god with Allah; so they shall soon know.
Who set some other god along with Allah. But they will come to know.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَجْعَلُونَ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
And surely We know that your breast straitens at what they say;
Well know We that thy bosom is oppressed by what they say,
وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ يَضِيقُ صَدْرُكَ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ
Therefore celebrate the praise of your Lord, and be of those who make obeisance.
But hymn the praise of thy Lord, and be of those who make prostration (unto Him).
فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَكُن مِّنَ ٱلسَّٰجِدِينَ
And serve your Lord until there comes to you that which is certain.
And serve thy Lord till the Inevitable cometh unto thee.
وَٱعْبُدْ رَبَّكَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِيَكَ ٱلْيَقِينُ
