যখন ফেটে (চুর্ণ বিচুর্ণ হয়ে) যাবে আকাশ,
When the sky has split [open]
When the heaven bursts asunder,

এবং যখন পৃথিবীকে করে দেয়া হবে প্রসারিত।

And when the earth is stretched,
And has cast out all that was in it and became empty.
আর তার ভেতরে যা কিছু ছিলো, সব বাইরে নিক্ষেপ করে সে খালি হয়ে যাবে।
And has cast out that within it and relinquished [it]
And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty,

O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions (good or bad), a sure returning, and you will meet (the results of your deeds which you did).
হে মানুষ! তুমি তোমার (ভালো - মন্দ) কৃতকর্মের বোঝা নিয়ে ফিরে চলছো তোমরা মালিকের দিকে। এ এক অবধারিত প্রত্যাবর্তন। সামনে এগিয়েই তাঁর সাথে মুলাকাত (সাক্ষাত) করবে।
O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it.

সেখানে যার কিতাব (কৃতকর্মের রেকর্ড বা আমলনামা) দেয়া হবে তার ডান হাতে,
Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,
Then as to him who is given his book in his right hand,
He surely will receive an easy reckoning,
তার কাছ থেকে নেয়া হবে একটা সহজ হিসাব,
He will be judged with an easy account
He shall be reckoned with by an easy reckoning,
And will return to his family in joy!
এবং সে তার পরিবার - পরিজনের কাছে ফিরে যাবে হাসি খুশি, আনন্দ উৎফুল্ল চিত্তে।
And return to his people in happiness.
And he shall go back to his people joyful.
But whosoever is given his Record behind his back,
তবে যার কিতাব (কৃতকর্মের রেকর্ড বা আমলনামা) দেয়া হবে তার পেছন দিক থেকে,
But as for he who is given his record behind his back,
And as to him who is given his book behind his back,
He will invoke (for his) destruction,
সে ডাকবে মৃত্যুকে,
He will cry out for destruction
He shall call for perdition,
And he shall enter a blazing Fire, and be made to taste its burning.
এবং সে প্রবেশ করবে সায়ীরে (জলন্ত আগুনে)।
And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.
Yea! surely his Lord does ever see him.

That you shall most certainly enter one state after another.

And Allah knows best what they hide,
