بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Woe to every scorner and mocker

Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!

Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
The fire of Allah kindled,
نار الله الموقدة
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
Which leaps up over the hearts,
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
في عمد ممددة
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In extended columns.
