I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit),
By the (Winds) sent forth one after another (to man's profit);
Bei den Entsandten, die wie eine Mähne aufeinanderfolgen,
وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًا
Chapter 77, 50 verses
I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit),
By the (Winds) sent forth one after another (to man's profit);
Bei den Entsandten, die wie eine Mähne aufeinanderfolgen,
وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًا
By the raging hurricanes,
Which then blow violently in tempestuous Gusts,
den einen Sturm Entfesselnden
فَٱلْعَٰصِفَٰتِ عَصْفًا
Which scatter clouds to their destined places,
And scatter (things) far and wide;
und den alles Ausbreitenden,
وَٱلنَّٰشِرَٰتِ نَشْرًا
Then separate them one from another,
Then separate them, one from another,
den klar Trennenden,
فَٱلْفَٰرِقَٰتِ فَرْقًا
Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation,
Then spread abroad a Message,
den Ermahnung Überbringenden
فَٱلْمُلْقِيَٰتِ ذِكْرًا
To clear or to warn.
Whether of Justification or of Warning; -
zur Pflichterfüllung oder zur Warnung!
عُذْرًا أَوْ نُذْرًا
Most surely what you are threatened with must come to pass.
Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass.
Gewiß, was euch versprochen wird, wird sicher hereinbrechen.
إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَٰقِعٌ
So when the stars are made to lose their light,
Then when the stars become dim;
Wenn dann die Sterne ausgelöscht werden
فَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ طُمِسَتْ
And when the heaven is rent asunder,
When the heaven is cleft asunder;
und wenn der Himmel gespalten wird
وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ فُرِجَتْ
And when the mountains are carried away as dust,
When the mountains are scattered (to the winds) as dust;
und wenn die Berge zersprengt werden
وَإِذَا ٱلْجِبَالُ نُسِفَتْ
And when the apostles are gathered at their appointed time
And when the messengers are (all) appointed a time (to collect); -
und wenn für die Gesandten ihre Zeit gesetzt wird.
وَإِذَا ٱلرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتْ
To what day is the doom fixed?
For what Day are these (portents) deferred?
Aufweichen Tag ist ihre Frist festgelegt worden?
لِأَىِّ يَوْمٍ أُجِّلَتْ
To the day of decision.
For the Day of Sorting out.
Auf den Tag der Entscheidung.
لِيَوْمِ ٱلْفَصْلِ
And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is?
And what will explain to thee what is the Day of Sorting out?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was der Tag der Entscheidung ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Did We not destroy the former generations?
Did We not destroy the men of old (for their evil)?
Haben Wir nicht die Früheren vernichtet?
أَلَمْ نُهْلِكِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Then did We follow them up with later ones.
So shall We make later (generations) follow them.
Hierauf lassen Wir ihnen die Späteren folgen.
ثُمَّ نُتْبِعُهُمُ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ
Even thus shall We deal with the guilty.
Thus do We deal with men of sin.
So verfahren Wir mit den Übeltätern.
كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Did We not create you from contemptible water?
Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable? -
Haben Wir euch nicht aus verächtlichem Wasser erschaffen,
أَلَمْ نَخْلُقكُّم مِّن مَّآءٍ مَّهِينٍ
Then We placed it in a secure resting - place,
The which We placed in a place of rest, firmly fixed,
das Wir dann in einem festen Aufenthaltsort haben sein lassen,
فَجَعَلْنَٰهُ فِى قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ
Till an appointed term,
For a period (of gestation), determined (according to need)?
bis zu einem bekannten Zeitpunkt?
إِلَىٰ قَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ
So We proportion it - - how well are We at proportioning (things).
For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things).
So haben Wir bemessen. Welch trefflicher Bemesser sind Wir!
فَقَدَرْنَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْقَٰدِرُونَ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Ah woe, that Day! to the Rejecters of Truth!
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Have We not made the earth to draw together to itself,
Have We not made the earth (as a place) to draw together.
Haben Wir nicht die Erde zu einem Ort der Aufbewahrung gemacht
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ كِفَاتًا
The living and the dead,
The living and the dead,
- für die Lebenden und die Toten -
أَحْيَآءً وَأَمْوَٰتًا
And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water?
And made therein mountains standing firm, lofty (in stature); and provided for you water sweet (and wholesome)?
und auf ihr festgegründete, hoch aufragende Berge gemacht und euch frisches Wasser zu trinken gegeben?
وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ شَٰمِخَٰتٍ وَأَسْقَيْنَٰكُم مَّآءً فُرَاتًا
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Walk on to that which you called a lie.
(It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as false!
- "Zieht los zu dem, was ihr stets für Lüge erklärt habt,
ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
Walk on to the covering having three branches,
"Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns,
zieht los zu einem Schatten mit drei Verzweigungen,
ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ ظِلٍّ ذِى ثَلَٰثِ شُعَبٍ
Neither having the coolness of the shade nor availing against the flame.
"(Which yields) no shade of coolness, and is of no use against the fierce Blaze.
der kein (wirklicher) Schattenspender ist und nicht (als Schutz) gegen die Flammen nützt."
لَّا ظَلِيلٍ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ
Surely it sends up sparks like palaces,
"Indeed it throws about sparks (huge) as Forts,
Sie wirft mit Funken wie Schlösser,
إِنَّهَا تَرْمِى بِشَرَرٍ كَٱلْقَصْرِ
As if they were tawny camels.
"As if there were (a string of) yellow camels (marching swiftly)."
als wären sie gelbe Kamele.
كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَٰلَتٌ صُفْرٌ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
This is the day on which they shall not speak,
That will be a Day when they shall not be able to speak.
Das ist der Tag, an dem sie nicht reden werden
هَٰذَا يَوْمُ لَا يَنطِقُونَ
And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses.
Nor will it be open to them to put forth pleas.

وَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمْ فَيَعْتَذِرُونَ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.

This is the day of decision: We have gathered you and those of yore.
That will be a Day of Sorting out! We shall gather you together and those before (you)!
- "Das ist der Tag der Entscheidung; Wir haben euch mit den Früheren versammelt.
هَٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ جَمَعْنَٰكُمْ وَٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now).
Now, if ye have a trick (or plot), use it against Me!
Wenn ihr also eine List habt, so führt sie gegen Mich aus."
فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمْ كَيْدٌ فَكِيدُونِ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.

As to the Righteous, they shall be amidst (cool) shades and springs (of water).
Gewiß, die Gottesfürchtigen werden sich in Schatten und an Quellen befinden
إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى ظِلَٰلٍ وَعُيُونٍ
And fruits such as they desire.
And (they shall have) fruits, - all they desire.
und bei Früchten von dem, was sie begehren.
وَفَوَٰكِهَ مِمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ
Eat and drink pleasantly because of what you did.
"Eat ye and drink ye to your heart's content: for that ye worked (Righteousness).
- "Eßt und trinkt als wohlbekömmlich für das, was ihr zu tun pflegtet."
كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
Surely thus do We reward the doers of good.
Thus do We certainly reward the Doers of Good.
Gewiß, so vergelten Wir den Rechtschaffenen.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱرْكَعُوا۟ لَا يَرْكَعُونَ
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
In what announcement, then, after it, will they believe?
Then what Message, after that, will they believe in?
An welche Aussage nach dieser wollen sie denn glauben?
فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَهُۥ يُؤْمِنُونَ
