Have We not expanded for you your breast,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Haben Wir dir nicht deine Brust aufgetan
Chapter 94, 8 verses
Have We not expanded for you your breast,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Haben Wir dir nicht deine Brust aufgetan
And taken off from you your burden,
And removed from thee thy burden
And eased thee of the burden
und dir deine Last abgenommen,
Which pressed heavily upon your back,
The which did gall thy back? -
Which weighed down thy back;
die deinen Rücken niederdrückte,
And exalted for you your esteem?
And raised high the esteem (in which) thou (art held)?
And exalted thy fame ?
und dir dein Ansehen erhöht?
Surely with difficulty is ease.
So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief:
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
Also gewiß, mit der Erschwernis ist Erleichterung,
With difficulty is surely ease.
Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
gewiß, mit der Erschwernis ist Erleichterung.
So when you are free, nominate.
Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard,
So when thou art relieved, still toil
Wenn du nun fertig bist, dann strenge dich an
And make your Lord your exclusive object.
And to thy Lord turn (all) thy attention.
And strive to please thy Lord.
und nach deinem Herrn richte dein Begehren aus.
