Bei deinem Herrn, Wir werden sie ganz gewiß versammeln, (sie) und die Satane. Hierauf werden Wir sie ganz gewiß rings um die Hölle herum auf den Knien herbeibringen.

So, by thy Lord, without doubt, We shall gather them together, and (also) the Evil Ones (with them); then shall We bring them forth on their knees round about Hell;

But We shall save those who guarded against evil, and We shall leave the wrong - doers therein, (humbled) to their knees.
Und wenn ihnen Unsere Zeichen als klare Beweise verlesen werden, sagen diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, zu denjenigen, die glauben: "Welcher der beiden Gruppen hat nun eine bessere Stellung und eine schönere Gesellschaft?"
And when Our clear revelations are recited unto them, those who disbelieve say unto those who believe: Which of the two parties (yours or ours) is better in position, and more imposing as an army ?
When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, the Unbelievers say to those who believe, "Which of the two sides is best in point of position? Which makes the best show in council?"
Aber wie viele Geschlechter vernichteten Wir vor ihnen, die besser an Ausstattung und Aussehen waren!
How many a generation have We destroyed before them, who were more imposing in respect of gear and outward seeming!
But how many (countless) generations before them have we destroyed, who were even better in equipment and in glitter to the eye?
Sag: Wer sich im Irrtum befindet, den möge der Allerbarmer lange darin gewähren lassen. Wenn sie dann sehen, was ihnen angedroht ist, entweder die Strafe oder die Stunde, da werden sie wissen, wer sich in einer (noch) schlechteren Lage befindet und die schwächere Heerschar hat.
Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will verily prolong his span of life until, when they behold that which they were promised, whether it be punishment (in the world), or the Hour (of doom), they will know who is worse in position and who is weaker as an army.
Say: "If any men go astray, (Allah) Most Gracious extends (the rope) to them, until, when they see the warning of Allah (being fulfilled) - either in punishment or in (the approach of) the Hour, - they will at length realise who is worst in position, and (who) weakest in forces!
Und Allah mehrt denjenigen, die rechtgeleitet sind, ihre Rechtleitung. Das Bleibende aber, die rechtschaffenen Werke - sie sind bei deinem Herrn besser in der Belohnung und besser als Rückkehr.
Allah increaseth in right guidance those who walk aright, and the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better for resort.
"And Allah doth advance in guidance those who seek guidance: and the things that endure, Good Deeds, are best in the sight of thy Lord, as rewards, and best in respect of (their) eventual return."
Was meinst du wohl zu demjenigen, der Unsere Zeichen verleugnet und sagt: "Mir werden ganz gewiß Besitz und Kinder gegeben"?
Hast thou seen him who disbelieveth in Our revelations and saith: Assuredly I shall be given wealth and children ?
Hast thou then seen the (sort of) man who rejects Our Signs, yet says: "I shall certainly be given wealth and children?"
Hat er etwa Einblick in das Verborgene gewonnen, oder hat er vom Allerbarmer eine Verpflichtung entgegengenommen?
Hath he perused the Unseen, or hath he made a pact with the Beneficent ?
Has he penetrated to the Unseen, or has he taken a contract with (Allah) Most Gracious?
Keineswegs! Wir werden aufschreiben, was er sagt, und ihm die Strafe noch verlängern.
Nay, but We shall record that which he saith and prolong for him a span of torment.
Nay! We shall record what he says, and We shall add and add to his punishment.
Und Wir erben von ihm das, was er sagt, während er einzeln zu Uns kommt.
And We shall inherit from him that whereof he spake, and he will come unto Us, alone (without his wealth and children).
To Us shall return all that he talks of and he shall appear before Us bare and alone.
Und sie haben sich anstatt Allahs Götter genommen, damit sie ihnen zu Macht gereichen.
And they have chosen (other) gods beside Allah that they may be a power for them.
And they have taken (for worship) gods other than Allah, to give them power and glory!
Keineswegs! Sie werden den von ihnen (empfangenen) Dienst verleugnen und werden ihnen Gegner sein.
Nay, but they will deny their worship of them, and become opponents unto them.
Instead, they shall reject their worship, and become adversaries against them.
Siehst du nicht, daß Wir die Satane gegen die Ungläubigen gesandt haben, damit sie sie heftig aufreizen?
Seest thou not that We have set the devils on the disbelievers to confound them with confusion ?
Seest thou not that We have set the Evil Ones on against the unbelievers, to incite them with fury?
So wünsche nichts gegen sie zu beschleunigen; Wir zählen ihnen schon (die Tage) ab.
So make no haste against them (O Muhammad). We do but number unto them a sum (of days).
So make no haste against them, for We but count out to them a (limited) number (of days).
An einem Tag, da Wir die Gottesfürchtigen als eine (geehrte) Abordnung zum Allerbarmer versammeln
On the day when We shall gather the righteous unto the Beneficent, a goodly company.
The day We shall gather the righteous to (Allah) Most Gracious, like a band presented before a king for honours,
und die Übeltäter, wie eine durstige Herde zur Tränke zur Hölle treiben,
And drive the guilty unto hell, a weary herd,
And We shall drive the sinners to Hell, like thirsty cattle driven down to water, -
verfugen sie nicht über die Fürsprache, außer demjenigen, der vom Allerbarmer eine (diesbezügliche) Verpflichtung entgegengenommen hat.
They will have no power of intercession, save him who hath made a covenant with his Lord.
None shall have the power of intercession, but such a one as has received permission (or promise) from (Allah) Most Gracious.
Und sie sagen: "Der Allerbarmer hat Sich Kinder genommen."
And they say: The Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a son.
They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!"
Ihr habt ja eine abscheuliche Sache begangen.
Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing
Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!
Beinahe brechen davon die Himmel auseinander, und (beinahe) spaltet sich die Erde, und (beinahe) stürzen die Berge in Trümmern zusammen,
Whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split asunder and the mountains fall in ruins,
At it the skies are ready to burst, the earth to split asunder, and the mountains to fall down in utter ruin,
daß sie dem Allerbarmer Kinder zuschreiben.
That ye ascribe unto the Beneficent a son,
That they should invoke a son for (Allah) Most Gracious.
Es ziemt dem Allerbarmer nicht, Sich Kinder zu nehmen.
When it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that He should choose a son.
For it is not consonant with the majesty of (Allah) Most Gracious that He should beget a son.
Niemand in den Himmeln und auf der Erde wird zum Allerbarmer anders denn als Diener kommen (können).
There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the Beneficent as a slave.
Not one of the beings in the heavens and the earth but must come to (Allah) Most Gracious as a servant.
Er hat sie erfaßt und sie genau gezählt.
Verily He knoweth them and numbereth them with (right) numbering.
He does take an account of them (all), and hath numbered them (all) exactly.
Und sie alle werden zu Ihm am Tag der Auferstehung einzeln kommen.
And each one of them will come unto Him on the Day of Resurrection, alone.
And everyone of them will come to Him singly on the Day of Judgment.
Gewiß, denjenigen, die glauben und rechtschaffene Werke tun, wird der Allerbarmer Liebe bereiten.
Lo! those who believe and do good works, the Beneficent will appoint for them love.
On those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, will (Allah) Most Gracious bestow love.
Wir haben ihn eigens leicht gemacht in deiner Sprache, damit du durch ihn den Gottesfürchtigen frohe Botschaft verkündest und durch ihn hartnäckige Leute warnst.
And We make (this Scripture) easy in thy tongue, (O Muhammad) only that thou mayst bear good tidings therewith unto those who ward off (evil), and warn therewith the froward folk.
So have We made the (Qur'an) easy in thine own tongue, that with it thou mayest give Glad Tidings to the righteous, and warnings to people given to contention.
Und wie viele Geschlechter haben Wir vor ihnen vernichtet! Nimmst du noch irgend jemanden von ihnen wahr, oder hörst du von ihnen noch den geringsten Laut?
And how many a generation before them have We destroyed! Canst thou (Muhammad) see a single man of them, or hear from them the slightest sound ?
But how many (countless) generations before them have We destroyed? Canst thou find a single one of them (now) or hear (so much as) a whisper of them?
