Chapter 94, 8 verses
Have We not expanded for you your breast,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?
Haben Wir dir nicht deine Brust aufgetan
And taken off from you your burden,
And removed from thee thy burden
And We removed from you your burden
und dir deine Last abgenommen,
Which pressed heavily upon your back,
The which did gall thy back? -
Which had weighed upon your back
die deinen Rücken niederdrückte,
And exalted for you your esteem?
And raised high the esteem (in which) thou (art held)?
And raised high for you your repute.
und dir dein Ansehen erhöht?

With difficulty is surely ease.
Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.
Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.

So when you are free, nominate.
Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard,
So when you have finished [your duties], then stand up [for worship].
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 to your Lord direct [your] longing.
und nach deinem Herrn richte dein Begehren aus.
