Chapter 102, 8 verses
Abundance diverts you,
The mutual rivalry for piling up (the good things of this world) diverts you (from the more serious things),
Die Vermehrung lenkt euch ab,
أَلْهَىٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ
Until you come to the graves.
Until ye visit the graves.
bis ihr die Friedhöfe besucht.
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ
Nay! you shall soon know,
But nay, ye soon shall know (the reality).
Keineswegs! Ihr werdet (es noch) erfahren.
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Nay! Nay! you shall soon know.
Again, ye soon shall know!
Abermals: Keineswegs! Ihr werdet (es noch) erfahren.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Nay! if you had known with a certain knowledge,
Nay, were ye to know with certainty of mind, (ye would beware!)
Keineswegs! Wenn ihr es nur mit dem Wissen der Gewißheit wüßtet!
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
You should most certainly have seen the hell;
Ye shall certainly see Hell - Fire!
Ihr werdet ganz gewiß den Höllenbrand sehen.
لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ
Then you shall most certainly see it with the eye of certainty;
Again, ye shall see it with certainty of sight!
Abermals: Ihr werdet ihn mit dem Auge der Gewißheit sehen.
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
Then on that day you shall most certainly be questioned about the boons.
Then, shall ye be questioned that Day about the joy (ye indulged in!).
Hierauf werdet ihr an jenem Tag ganz gewiß nach der Wonne gefragt werden.
ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
