Chapter 100, 11 verses
Bei den schnaubend Rennenden,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
den (mit ihren Hufen) Funken Schlagenden,
فالموريات قدحا
Then those that produce fire striking,
Striking sparks of fire
den am Morgen Angreifenden,
فالمغيرات صبحا
Then those that make raids at morn,
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
die darin Staub aufwirbeln,
فأثرن به نقعا
Then thereby raise dust,
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
die dann mitten in die Ansammlung eindringen!
فوسطن به جمعا
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
Der Mensch ist seinem Herrn gegenüber wahrlich undankbar,
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
und er (selbst) ist darüber wahrlich Zeuge.
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
And most surely he is a witness of that.
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
Und er ist in seiner Liebe zum (eigenen) Besten wahrlich heftig.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
Weiß er denn nicht? Wenn durchwühlt wird, was in den Gräbern ist,
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
und herausgeholt wird, was in den Brüsten ist,...
وحصل ما في الصدور
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
ihr Herr wird an jenem Tag ihrer wahrlich Kundig sein.
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
