When the heaven bursts asunder,
Wenn der Himmel sich spaltet

إِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ ٱنشَقَّتْ
And obeys its Lord and it must.
und auf seinen Herrn hört - und es ist ja rechtens für ihn -,
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so); -
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
And when the earth is stretched,
und wenn die Erde ausgedehnt wird
And when the earth is flattened out,
وَإِذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ
And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,
und herauswirft, was in ihr ist, und sich entleert
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ
And obeys its Lord and it must.
und auf ihren Herrn hört - und es ist ja rechtens für sie ...
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, - and it must needs (do so); - (then will come Home the full reality).
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ
O man! surely you must strive (to attain) to your Lord, a hard striving until you meet Him.
O du Mensch, du mühst dich hart zu deinem Herrn hin, und so wirst du Ihm begegnen.
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord - painfully toiling, - but thou shalt meet Him.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَٰقِيهِ
Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,
Was nun jemanden angeht, dem dann sein Buch in seine Rechte gegeben wird.
Then he who is given his Record in his right hand,
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ
He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,
der wird einer leichten Abrechnung unterzogen,
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا
And he shall go back to his people joyful.
und er wird erfreut zu seinen Angehörigen zurückkehren.
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
And as to him who is given his book behind his back,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dem sein Buch hinter seinem Rücken gegeben wird,
But he who is given his Record behind his back, -
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ
He shall call for perdition,
der wird nach Vernichtung rufen
Soon will he cry for perdition,
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا
And enter into burning fire.
und der Feuerglut ausgesetzt sein.
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا
Surely he was (erstwhile) joyful among his followers.
Er war ja froh inmitten seiner Angehörigen.
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فِىٓ أَهْلِهِۦ مَسْرُورًا
Surely he thought that he would never return.
Er meinte ja, daß er nicht zurückkehren würde.
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ
Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.
Ja doch! Gewiß, sein Herr sieht ihn wohl.
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
بَلَىٰٓ إِنَّ رَبَّهُۥ كَانَ بِهِۦ بَصِيرًا
But nay! I swear by the sunset redness,
Nein! Ich schwöre beim Abendrot
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلشَّفَقِ
And the night and that which it drives on,
und der Nacht und dem, was sie zusammentreibt,
The Night and its Homing;
وَٱلَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ
And the moon when it grows full,
und dem Mond, wenn er voll geworden ist.
And the Moon in her fullness:
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا ٱتَّسَقَ
That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.
Ihr werdet eine Schicht nach der anderen besteigen.
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ
But what is the matter with them that they do not believe,
Was ist denn mit ihnen, daß sie nicht glauben
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not? -
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
And when the Quran is recited to them they do not make obeisance?
und, wenn ihnen der Qur'an vorgelesen wird, sich nicht niederwerfen?
And when the Qur'an is read to them, they fall not prostrate,
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ
Nay! those who disbelieve give the lie to the truth.
Aber nein! Diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, erklären (ihn) für Lüge.
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُكَذِّبُونَ
And Allah knows best what they hide,
Doch Allah weiß sehr wohl, was sie (in ihren Herzen) für sich behalten.
But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)
وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ
So announce to them a painful punishment~
So verkünde ihnen schmerzhafte Strafe,
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
Except those who believe and do good; for them is a reward that shall never be cut off.
außer denjenigen, die glauben und rechtschaffene Werke tun; für sie wird es einen Lohn geben, der nicht aufhört.
Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward that will never fail.
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۭ
