Chapter 93, 11 verses
I swear by the early hours of the day,
Bei der Morgenhelle
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
And the night when it covers with darkness.
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
And by the night when it is stillest,
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
Dein Herr hat sich weder von dir verabschiedet noch haßt Er (dich).
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,
And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
Und das Jenseits ist wahrlich besser für dich als das Diesseits.
And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
Und dein Herr wird dir wahrlich geben, und dann wirst du zufrieden sein.
And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
Hat Er dich nicht als Waise gefunden und (dir) dann Zuflucht verschafft
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
und dich irregehend gefunden und dann rechtgeleitet
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
und dich arm gefunden und dann reich gemacht?
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
Was nun die Waise angeht, so unterjoche (sie) nicht,
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
und was die Gunst deines Herrn angeht, so erzähle (davon).
Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
