Chapter 79, 46 verses
I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked,
WaalnnaziAAati gharqan
Bei den mit Heftigkeit Entreißenden
By those [angels] who extract with violence
And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed,
Waalnnashitati nashtan
und den leicht Herausziehenden
And [by] those who remove with ease
And by those who float in space,
Waalssabihati sabhan
und den unbeschwert Dahingleitenden,
And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming
Then those who are foremost going ahead,
Faalssabiqati sabqan
den allem Vorauseilenden,
And those who race each other in a race
Then those who regulate the affair.
Faalmudabbirati amran
den eine Angelegenheit Regelnden!
And those who arrange [each] matter,
The day on which the quaking one shall quake,
Yawma tarjufu alrrajifatu
Am Tag, da das Zittern einsetzt
On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],
What must happen afterwards shall follow it.
TatbaAAuha alrradifatu
und das nächste hinterherfolgt,
There will follow it the subsequent [one].
Hearts on that day shall palpitate,
Quloobun yawmaithin wajifatun
(gewisse) Herzen werden an jenem Tag beunruhigt klopfen,
Hearts, that Day, will tremble,
Their eyes cast down.
Absaruha khashiAAatun
und ihre Blicke werden demütig sein.
Their eyes humbled.
They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?
Yaqooloona ainna lamardoodoona fee alhafirati
Sie sagen: "Sollen wir denn wirklich aus den Gräbern zurückgebracht werden?
They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?
What! when we are rotten bones?
Aitha kunna AAithaman nakhiratan
Wenn wir zu verrotteten Knochen geworden sind?"
Even if we should be decayed bones?
They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.
Qaloo tilka ithan karratun khasiratun
Sie sagen: "Das wäre dann eine verlustreiche Wiederkehr."
They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."
But it shall be only a single cry,
Fainnama hiya zajratun wahidatun
Es wird nur ein einziger erschreckender Schrei sein,
Indeed, it will be but one shout,
When lo! they shall be wakeful.
Faitha hum bialssahirati
und sogleich sind sie auf der Oberfläche.

When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,
Ith nadahu rabbuhu bialwadi almuqaddasi tuwan
Als sein Herr ihn im geheiligten Tal Tuwa rief:
When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,
Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.

Dann sag: Hast du (nicht) den Wunsch, dich zu läutern,
And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself
And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.
Waahdiyaka ila rabbika fatakhsha
und daß ich dich zu deinem Herrn rechtleite, so daß du gottesfürchtig wirst?"
And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"
So he showed him the mighty sign.
Faarahu alayata alkubra

But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.
