Woe to the defrauders,
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to Al-Mutaffifun (those who give less in measure and weight).
Wehe den das Maß Kürzenden,
وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
Chapter 83, 36 verses
Woe to the defrauders,
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to Al-Mutaffifun (those who give less in measure and weight).
Wehe den das Maß Kürzenden,
وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
Who, when they take the measure (of their dues) from men take it fully,
Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, demand full measure,
die, wenn sie sich von den Menschen zumessen lassen, sich volles Maß geben lassen,
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ
But when they measure out to others or weigh out for them, they are deficient.
And when they have to give by measure or weight to (other) men, give less than due.
wenn sie ihnen aber zumessen oder wägen, Verlust zufügen.
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
Do not these think that they shall be raised again
Do they not think that they will be resurrected (for reckoning),
Glauben jene nicht, daß sie auferweckt werden
أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
For a mighty day,
On a Great Day?
zu einem gewaltigen Tag,
لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
The day on which men shall stand before the Lord of the worlds?
The Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists)?
am Tag, da die Menschen sich um des Herrn der Weltenbewohner willen aufstellen werden?
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلنَّاسُ لِرَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
Nay! most surely the record of the wicked is in the Sijjin.
Nay! Truly, the Record (writing of the deeds) of the Fujjar (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, evil-doers and the wicked) is (preserved) in Sijjin.
Keineswegs! Das Buch der Sittenlosen ist wahrlich in Siggin.
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ ٱلْفُجَّارِ لَفِى سِجِّينٍ
And what will make you know what the Sijjin is?
And what will make you know what Sijjin is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was Siggin ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ
It is a written book.
A Register inscribed.
(Es ist) ein Buch mit festen Eintragungen.
كِتَٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
Woe on that day to the rejecters,
Woe, that Day, to those who deny.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern,
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Who give the lie to the day of judgment.
Those who deny the Day of Recompense.
die den Tag des Gerichts für Lüge erklären!
ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ
And none gives the lie to it but every exceeder of limits, sinful one
And none can deny it except every transgressor beyond bounds, (in disbelief, oppression and disobedience to Allah) the sinner!
Und nur derjenige erklärt ihn für Lüge, der Übertretungen begeht und ein Sünder ist.
وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
When Our communications are recited to him, he says: Stories of those of yore.
When Our Verses (of the Qur'an) are recited 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! rather, what they used to do has become like rust upon their hearts.
Nay! But on their hearts is the Ran (covering of sins and evil deeds) which they used to earn.
Keineswegs! Vielmehr hat sich das, was sie zu erwerben pflegten, über ihren Herzen angesetzt.
كَلَّا بَلْ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ
Nay! most surely they shall on that day be debarred from their Lord.
Nay! Surely they (evil-doers) will be veiled from seeing their Lord that Day.
Keineswegs! Sie werden von ihrem Herrn an jenem Tag bestimmt abgeschirmt sein.
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ
Then most surely they shall enter the burning fire.
Then, verily, they will indeed enter (and taste) the burning flame of Hell.
Hierauf werden sie bestimmt dem Höllenbrand ausgesetzt sein.
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
Then shall it be said: This is what you gave the lie to.
Then, it will be said to them: "This is what you used to deny!"
Hierauf wird gesagt werden: "Das ist das, was ihr für Lüge zu erklären pflegtet."
ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
Nay! Most surely the record of the righteous shall be in the Iliyin.
Nay! Verily, the Record (writing of the deeds) of Al-Abrar (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism) is (preserved) in 'Illiyyun
Keineswegs! Das Buch der Frommen ist wahrlich in 'Illiyyin.
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ ٱلْأَبْرَارِ لَفِى عِلِّيِّينَ
And what will make you know what the highest Iliyin is?
And what will make you know what 'Illiyyun is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was 'Illiyyun ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ
It is a written book,
A Register inscribed,
(Es ist) ein Buch mit festen Eintragungen,
كِتَٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
Those who are drawn near (to Allah) shall witness it.
To which bear witness those nearest (to Allah, i.e. the angels).
in das die (Allah) Nahegestellten Einsicht nehmen.
يَشْهَدُهُ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ
Most surely the righteous shall be in bliss,
Verily, Al-Abrar (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism) will be in Delight (Paradise).
Die Frommen werden wahrlich in Wonne sein,
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ
On thrones, they shall gaze;
On thrones, looking (at all things).
auf überdachten Liegen (gelehnt), und blicken um sich.
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
You will recognize in their faces the brightness of bliss.
You will recognise in their faces the brightness of delight.
Du erkennst in ihren Gesichtern das Strahlen der Wonne.
تَعْرِفُ فِى وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
They are made to quaff of a pure drink that is sealed (to others).
They will be given to drink of pure sealed wine.
Ihnen wird von versiegeltem Nektar zu trinken gegeben,
يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍ مَّخْتُومٍ
The sealing of it is (with) musk; and for that let the aspirers aspire.
The last thereof (that wine) will be the smell of Musk, and for this let (all) those strive who want to strive (i.e. hasten earnestly to the obedience of Allah).
dessen Siegel Moschus ist -, und darum sollen die Wettbewerber wettkämpfen -,
خِتَٰمُهُۥ مِسْكٌ وَفِى ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ ٱلْمُتَنَٰفِسُونَ
And the admixture of it is a water of Tasnim,
It (that wine) will be mixed with Tasnim:
und dessen Beimischung Tasnim ist,
وَمِزَاجُهُۥ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ
A fountain from which drink they who are drawn near (to Allah).
A spring whereof drink those nearest to Allah.
aus einer Quelle, aus der die (Allah) Nahegestellten trinken.
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ
Surely they who are guilty used to laugh at those who believe.
Verily, (during the worldly life) those who committed crimes 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 when they passed by them, they winked at one another.
And, whenever they passed by them, used to wink one to another (in mockery).
und, wenn sie an ihnen vorbeikamen, einander zuzuzwinkern.
وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ
And when they returned to their own followers they returned exulting.
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: Most surely these are in error;
And when they saw them, they said: "Verily these have indeed gone astray!"
Und, wenn sie sie sahen, sagten sie: "Diese gehen fürwahr in die Irre."
وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَضَآلُّونَ
And they were not sent to be keepers over them.
But they (disbelievers, sinners) had not been sent as watchers over them (the believers).
Dabei waren sie doch nicht als Hüter über sie gesandt worden.
وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَٰفِظِينَ
So today those who believe shall laugh at the unbelievers;
But this Day (the Day of Resurrection) those who believe will laugh at the disbelievers
Heute aber lachen diejenigen, die glauben, über die Ungläubigen,
فَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ
On thrones, they will look.
On (high) thrones, looking (at all things).
auf überdachten Liegen (gelehnt), und blicken um sich.
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
Surely the disbelievers are rewarded as they did.
Are not the disbelievers paid (fully) for what they used to do?
Sind die Ungläubigen nicht doch belohnt worden für das, was sie zu tun pflegten?
هَلْ ثُوِّبَ ٱلْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ
