Chapter 23, 118 verses
Den Gläubigen wird es ja wohl ergehen,
indeed are the believers,
Certainly will the believers have succeeded:
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ
denjenigen, die in ihrem Gebet demütig sind,
Who are humble in their prayers,
They who are during their prayer humbly submissive
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى صَلَاتِهِمْ خَٰشِعُونَ
und denjenigen, die sich von unbedachter Rede abwenden,
And who keep aloof from what is vain,
And they who turn away from ill speech
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَنِ ٱللَّغْوِ مُعْرِضُونَ
und denjenigen, die die (Zahlung der) Abgabe anwenden,
And who are givers of poor - rate,
And they who are observant of zakah
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلزَّكَوٰةِ فَٰعِلُونَ
und denjenigen, die ihre Scham hüten,
And who guard their private parts,
And they who guard their private parts
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَٰفِظُونَ
außer gegenüber ihren Gattinnen oder was ihre rechte Hand (an Sklavinnen) besitzt, denn sie sind (hierin) nicht zu tadeln,
Except before their mates or those whom their right hands possess, for they surely are not blameable,
Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed -
إِلَّا عَلَىٰٓ أَزْوَٰجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَٰنُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُومِينَ
- wer aber darüber hinaus (etwas) begehrt, das sind die Übertreter -,
But whoever seeks to go beyond that, these are they that exceed the limits;
But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors -
فَمَنِ ٱبْتَغَىٰ وَرَآءَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْعَادُونَ
und denjenigen, die auf die ihnen anvertrauten Güter und ihre Verpflichtung achtgeben,
And those who are keepers of their trusts and their covenant,
And they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَٰنَٰتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَٰعُونَ
und denjenigen, die ihre Gebete einhalten.
And those who keep a guard on their prayers;
And they who carefully maintain their prayers -
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَىٰ صَلَوَٰتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ
Das sind die Erben,
These are they who are the heirs,
Those are the inheritors
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْوَٰرِثُونَ
die das Paradies erben werden; ewig werden sie darin bleiben.
Who shall inherit the Paradise; they shall abide therein.
Who will inherit al - Firdaus. They will abide therein eternally.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْفِرْدَوْسَ هُمْ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ
Wir schufen den Menschen ja aus einem Auszug aus Lehm.
And certainly We created man of an extract of clay,
And certainly did We create man from an extract of clay.
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ مِن سُلَٰلَةٍ مِّن طِينٍ
Hierauf machten Wir ihn zu einem Samentropfen in einem festen Aufenthaltsort.
Then We made him a small seed in a firm resting - place,
Then We placed him as a sperm - drop in a firm lodging.
ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَٰهُ نُطْفَةً فِى قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ
Hierauf schufen Wir den Samentropfen zu einem Anhängsel, dann schufen Wir das Anhängsel zu einem kleinen Klumpen, dann schufen Wir den kleinen Klumpen zu Knochen, dann bekleideten Wir die Knochen mit Fleisch. Hierauf ließen Wir ihn als eine weitere Schöpfung entstehen. Segensreich ist Allah, der beste Schöpfer.
Then We made the seed a clot, then We made the clot a lump of flesh, then We made (in) the lump of flesh bones, then We clothed the bones with flesh, then We caused it to grow into another creation, so blessed be Allah, the best of the creators.
Then We made the sperm - drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah, the best of creators.
ثُمَّ خَلَقْنَا ٱلنُّطْفَةَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقْنَا ٱلْعَلَقَةَ مُضْغَةً فَخَلَقْنَا ٱلْمُضْغَةَ عِظَٰمًا فَكَسَوْنَا ٱلْعِظَٰمَ لَحْمًا ثُمَّ أَنشَأْنَٰهُ خَلْقًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَبَارَكَ ٱللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ ٱلْخَٰلِقِينَ
Hierauf werdet ihr gewiß nach (all) diesem sterben.
Then after that you will most surely die.
Then indeed, after that you are to die.
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُم بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ لَمَيِّتُونَ
Hierauf werdet ihr gewiß am Tag der Auferstehung auferweckt werden.
Then surely on the day of resurrection you shall be raised.
Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, will be resurrected.
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ تُبْعَثُونَ
Und Wir schufen ja über euch sieben Lagen, und Wir sind der Schöpfung nicht unachtsam.
And certainly We made above you seven heavens; and never are We heedless of creation.
And We have created above you seven layered heavens, and never have We been of [Our] creation unaware.
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعَ طَرَآئِقَ وَمَا كُنَّا عَنِ ٱلْخَلْقِ غَٰفِلِينَ
Und Wir lassen vom Himmel Wasser in (bestimmtem) Maß herabkommen und lassen es sich dann in der Erde aufhalten. Und Wir habe'n fürwahr die Macht, es (wieder) wegzunehmen.
And We send down water from the cloud according to a measure, then We cause it to settle in the earth, and most surely We are able to carry it away.
And We have sent down rain from the sky in a measured amount and settled it in the earth. And indeed, We are Able to take it away.
وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۢ بِقَدَرٍ فَأَسْكَنَّٰهُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰ ذَهَابٍۭ بِهِۦ لَقَٰدِرُونَ
Dann lassen Wir euch dadurch Gärten mit Palmen und Rebstöcken entstehen, in denen ihr vielerlei Früchte habt und von denen ihr eßt,
Then We cause to grow thereby gardens of palm trees and grapes for you; you have in them many fruits and from them do you eat;
And We brought forth for you thereby gardens of palm trees and grapevines in which for you are abundant fruits and from which you eat.
فَأَنشَأْنَا لَكُم بِهِۦ جَنَّٰتٍ مِّن نَّخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَٰبٍ لَّكُمْ فِيهَا فَوَٰكِهُ كَثِيرَةٌ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَ
und einen Baum, der aus dem Berg Saina herauskommt, der Öl hervorbringt und auch Tunke für diejenigen, die essen.
And a tree that grows out of Mount Sinai which produces oil and a condiment for those who eat.
And [We brought forth] a tree issuing from Mount Sinai which produces oil and food for those who eat.
وَشَجَرَةً تَخْرُجُ مِن طُورِ سَيْنَآءَ تَنۢبُتُ بِٱلدُّهْنِ وَصِبْغٍ لِّلْءَاكِلِينَ
Und (auch) im Vieh habt ihr wahrlich eine Lehre. Wir geben euch von dem, was in ihren Leibern ist, zu trinken. An ihnen habt ihr vielerlei Nutzen, und davon eßt ihr.
And most surely there is a lesson for you in the cattle: We make you to drink of what is in their bellies, and you have in them many advantages and of them you eat,
And indeed, for you in livestock is a lesson. We give you drink from that which is in their bellies, and for you in them are numerous benefits, and from them you eat.
وَإِنَّ لَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ لَعِبْرَةً نُّسْقِيكُم مِّمَّا فِى بُطُونِهَا وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ كَثِيرَةٌ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَ
Und auf ihnen und auf den Schiffen werdet ihr getragen.
And on them and on the ships you are borne.
And upon them and on ships you are carried.
وَعَلَيْهَا وَعَلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ تُحْمَلُونَ
Und Wir sandten bereits Nuh zu seinem Volk. Da sagte er: "O mein Volk, dient Allah. Keinen Gott habt ihr außer Ihm. Wollt ihr denn nicht gottesfürchtig sein?"
And certainly We sent Nuh to his people, and he said: O my people! serve Allah, you have no god other than Him; will you not then guard (against evil)?
And We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِۦ فَقَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥٓ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Da sagte die aus seinem Volk führende Schar, die ungläubig war: "Dieser ist nur ein menschliches Wesen wie ihr, das einen Vorzug euch gegenüber haben will. Und wenn Allah gewollt hätte, hätte Er wahrlich Engel herabgesandt. Wir haben so etwas bei unseren Vorvätern nicht gehört.
And the chiefs of those who disbelieved from among his people said: He is nothing but a mortal like yourselves who desires that he may have superiority over you, and if Allah had pleased, He could certainly have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our fathers of yore:
But the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a man like yourselves who wishes to take precedence over you; and if Allah had willed [to send a messenger], He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers.
فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلَؤُا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن قَوْمِهِۦ مَا هَٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يُرِيدُ أَن يَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَوْ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَأَنزَلَ مَلَٰٓئِكَةً مَّا سَمِعْنَا بِهَٰذَا فِىٓ ءَابَا
Er ist nur ein Mann, der an Besessenheit leidet; so wartet mit ihm für eine gewisse Zeit ab."
He is only a madman, so bear with him for a time.
He is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait concerning him for a time."
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا رَجُلٌۢ بِهِۦ جِنَّةٌ فَتَرَبَّصُوا۟ بِهِۦ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
Er sagte: "Mein Herr, hilf mir, wo sie mich der Lüge bezichtigen."
He said: O my Lord! help me against their calling me a liar.
[Noah] said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."
قَالَ رَبِّ ٱنصُرْنِى بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ
Da gaben Wir ihm ein: "Verfertige das Schiff vor Unseren Augen und nach Unserer Eingebung. Wenn dann Unser Befehl kommt und der Ofen brodelt, so führe von jeder (Art) ein Paar und deine Angehörigen hinein, außer gegen wen das Wort vorher ergangen ist. Und sprich Mich nicht an zugunsten derjenigen, die Unrecht getan haben; sie werden ertränkt werden.
So We revealed to him, saying: Make the ark before Our eyes and (according to) Our revelation; and when Our command is given and the valley overflows, take into it of every kind a pair, two, and your followers, except those among them against whom the word has gone forth, and do not speak to Me in respect of those who are unjust; surely they shall be drowned.
So We inspired to him, "Construct the ship under Our observation, and Our inspiration, and when Our command comes and the oven overflows, put into the ship from each [creature] two mates and your family, except those for whom the decree [of destruction] has proceeded. And do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are to be drowned.
فَأَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَيْهِ أَنِ ٱصْنَعِ ٱلْفُلْكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ ٱلتَّنُّورُ فَٱسْلُكْ فِيهَا مِن كُلٍّ زَوْجَيْنِ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَأَهْلَكَ إِلَّا مَن سَبَقَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْقَ
Und wenn du dich nun auf dem Schiff eingerichtet hast, du und diejenigen, die mit dir sind, dann sag: (Alles) Lob gehört Allah, Der uns von dem ungerechten Volk errettet hat!
And when you are firmly seated, you and those with you, in the ark, say: All praise is due to Allah who delivered us from the unjust people:
And when you have boarded the ship, you and those with you, then say, 'Praise to Allah who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.'
فَإِذَا ٱسْتَوَيْتَ أَنتَ وَمَن مَّعَكَ عَلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ فَقُلِ ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِى نَجَّىٰنَا مِنَ ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
Und sag: Mein Herr, gewähre mir einen gesegneten Abstieg', denn Du bist der Beste derjenigen, die Abstieg gewähren."
And say: O my Lord! cause me to disembark a blessed alighting, and Thou art the best to cause to alight.
And say, 'My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us].' "
وَقُل رَّبِّ أَنزِلْنِى مُنزَلًا مُّبَارَكًا وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلْمُنزِلِينَ
Darin sind wahrlich Zeichen. Wir haben (sie damit) fürwahr geprüft.
Most surely there are signs in this, and most surely We are ever trying (men).
Indeed in that are signs, and indeed, We are ever testing [Our servants].
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍ وَإِن كُنَّا لَمُبْتَلِينَ
Hierauf ließen Wir nach ihnen ein anderes Geschlecht entstehen.
Then We raised up after them another generation.
Then We produced after them a generation of others.
ثُمَّ أَنشَأْنَا مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قَرْنًا ءَاخَرِينَ
Dann schickten Wir zu ihnen einen Gesandten von ihnen: "Dient Allah! Keinen Gott habt ihr außer Ihm. Wollt ihr denn nicht gottesfürchtig sein?"
So We sent among them an apostle from among them, saying: Serve Allah, you have no god other than Him; will you not then guard (against evil)?
And We sent among them a messenger from themselves, [saying], "Worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"
فَأَرْسَلْنَا فِيهِمْ رَسُولًا مِّنْهُمْ أَنِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥٓ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Und die führende Schar aus seinem Volk, die ungläubig war und die Begegnung mit dem Jenseits für Lüge erklärte und der Wir im diesseitigen Leben üppigen Wohlstand verliehen hatten, sagte: "Dieser ist nur ein menschliches Wesen wie ihr, das von dem ißt, was ihr eßt, und von dem trinkt, was ihr trinkt.
And the chiefs of his people who disbelieved and called the meeting of the hereafter a lie, and whom We had given plenty to enjoy in this world's life, said: This is nothing but a mortal like yourselves, eating of what you eat from and drinking of what you drink.
And the eminent among his people who disbelieved and denied the meeting of the Hereafter while We had given them luxury in the worldly life said, "This is not but a man like yourselves. He eats of that from which you eat and drinks of what you drink.
وَقَالَ ٱلْمَلَأُ مِن قَوْمِهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِلِقَآءِ ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَأَتْرَفْنَٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا مَا هَٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يَأْكُلُ مِمَّا تَأْكُلُونَ مِنْهُ وَيَش
Wenn ihr einem menschlichen Wesen euresgleichen gehorcht, dann werdet ihr fürwahr Verlierer sein.
And if you obey a mortal like yourselves, then most surely you will be losers:
And if you should obey a man like yourselves, indeed, you would then be losers.
وَلَئِنْ أَطَعْتُم بَشَرًا مِّثْلَكُمْ إِنَّكُمْ إِذًا لَّخَٰسِرُونَ
Verspricht er euch etwa, daß ihr, wenn ihr gestorben und zu Erde und Knochen geworden seid, (wieder) hervorgebracht werdet?
What! does he threaten you that when you are dead and become dust and bones that you shall then be brought forth?
Does he promise you that when you have died and become dust and bones that you will be brought forth [once more]?
أَيَعِدُكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ إِذَا مِتُّمْ وَكُنتُمْ تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَنَّكُم مُّخْرَجُونَ
Weit, weit entfernt ist das, was euch versprochen wird.
Far, far is that which you are threatened with.
How far, how far, is that which you are promised.
هَيْهَاتَ هَيْهَاتَ لِمَا تُوعَدُونَ
Es gibt nur unser diesseitiges Leben: Wir sterben und wir leben, und wir werden nicht auferweckt.
There is naught but our life in this world; we die and we live and we shall not be raised again.
Life is not but our worldly life - we die and live, but we will not be resurrected.
إِنْ هِىَ إِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا ٱلدُّنْيَا نَمُوتُ وَنَحْيَا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَبْعُوثِينَ
Er ist nur ein Mann, der gegen Allah eine Lüge ersonnen hat; und wir wollen ihm nicht glauben."
He is naught but a man who has forged a lie against Allah, and we are not going to believe in him.
He is not but a man who has invented a lie about Allah, and we will not believe him."
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ ٱفْتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًا وَمَا نَحْنُ لَهُۥ بِمُؤْمِنِينَ
Er sagte: "Mein Herr, hilf mir, wo sie mich der Lüge bezichtigen."
He said: O my Lord! help me against their calling me a liar.
He said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."
قَالَ رَبِّ ٱنصُرْنِى بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ
Er sagte: "Über ein kleines werden sie wahrlich Reue empfinden."
He said: In a little while they will most certainly be repenting.
[Allah] said, "After a little, they will surely become regretful."
قَالَ عَمَّا قَلِيلٍ لَّيُصْبِحُنَّ نَٰدِمِينَ
Da ergriff sie zu Recht der Schrei, und so machten Wir sie zu Abschaum. Weg darum mit dem ungerechten Volk!
So the punishment overtook them in justice, and We made them as rubbish; so away with the unjust people.
So the shriek seized them in truth, and We made them as [plant] stubble. Then away with the wrongdoing people.
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّيْحَةُ بِٱلْحَقِّ فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ غُثَآءً فَبُعْدًا لِّلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
Hierauf ließen Wir nach ihnen andere Geschlechter entstehen.
Then We raised after them other generations.
Then We produced after them other generations.
ثُمَّ أَنشَأْنَا مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ قُرُونًا ءَاخَرِينَ
Keine Gemeinschaft kann ihrer Frist vorausgehen, noch sie hinausschieben.
No people can hasten on their doom nor can they postpone (it).
No nation will precede its time [of termination], nor will they remain [thereafter].
مَا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ
Hierauf sandten Wir Unsere Gesandten, einen nach dem anderen. Jedesmal, wenn zu einer Gemeinschaft ihr Gesandter kam, bezichtigten sie ihn der Lüge. So ließen Wir die einen von ihnen auf die anderen folgen und machten sie zu(m Gegenstand von) Geschichten. Weg darum mit Leuten, die nicht glauben!
Then We sent Our apostles one after another; whenever there came to a people their apostle, they called him a liar, so We made some of them follow others and We made them stories; so away with a people who do not believe!
Then We sent Our messengers in succession. Every time there came to a nation its messenger, they denied him, so We made them follow one another [to destruction], and We made them narrations. So away with a people who do not believe.
ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا تَتْرَا كُلَّ مَا جَآءَ أُمَّةً رَّسُولُهَا كَذَّبُوهُ فَأَتْبَعْنَا بَعْضَهُم بَعْضًا وَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ أَحَادِيثَ فَبُعْدًا لِّقَوْمٍ لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ
Hierauf sandten Wir Musa und seinen Bruder Harun mit Unseren Zeichen und einer deutlichen Ermächtigung
Then We sent Musa and his brother Haroun, with Our communications and a clear authority,
Then We sent Moses and his brother Aaron with Our signs and a clear authority
ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْنَا مُوسَىٰ وَأَخَاهُ هَٰرُونَ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا وَسُلْطَٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ
zu Fir'aun und seiner führenden Schar. Sie aber verhielten sich hochmütig und waren überhebliche Leute.
To Firon and his chiefs, but they behaved haughtily and they were an insolent people.
To Pharaoh and his establishment, but they were arrogant and were a haughty people.
إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَإِي۟هِۦ فَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ وَكَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا عَالِينَ
Sie sagten: "Sollen wir denn zwei menschlichen Wesen unseresgleichen glauben, wo doch ihr Volk in unserem Dienst steht?"
And they said: What! shall we believe in two mortals like ourselves while their people serve us?
They said, "Should we believe two men like ourselves while their people are for us in servitude?"
فَقَالُوٓا۟ أَنُؤْمِنُ لِبَشَرَيْنِ مِثْلِنَا وَقَوْمُهُمَا لَنَا عَٰبِدُونَ
Sie bezichtigten sie der Lüge, und so gehörten sie zu denen, die vernichtet wurden.
So they rejected them and became of those who were destroyed.
So they denied them and were of those destroyed.
فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَكَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْمُهْلَكِينَ
Und Wir gaben bereits Musa die Schrift, auf daß sie rechtgeleitet werden mögen.
And certainly We gave Musa the Book that they may follow a right direction.
And We certainly gave Moses the Scripture that perhaps they would be guided.
وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا مُوسَى ٱلْكِتَٰبَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ
Und Wir machten den Sohn Maryams und seine Mutter zu einem Zeichen und gewährten ihnen Zuflucht auf einer Anhöhe mit festem Grund und Quellwasser.
And We made the son of Marium and his mother a sign, and We gave them a shelter on a lofty ground having meadows and springs.
And We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign and sheltered them within a high ground having level [areas] and flowing water.
وَجَعَلْنَا ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَأُمَّهُۥٓ ءَايَةً وَءَاوَيْنَٰهُمَآ إِلَىٰ رَبْوَةٍ ذَاتِ قَرَارٍ وَمَعِينٍ
"O ihr Gesandten, eßt von den guten Dingen und handelt rechtschaffen; gewiß, Ich weiß über das, was ihr tut, Bescheid.
O apostles! eat of the good things and do good; surely I know what you do.
[Allah said], "O messengers, eat from the good foods and work righteousness. Indeed, I, of what you do, am Knowing.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلرُّسُلُ كُلُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلطَّيِّبَٰتِ وَٱعْمَلُوا۟ صَٰلِحًا إِنِّى بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ عَلِيمٌ
Gewiß, diese ist eure Gemeinschaft, eine einzige Gemeinschaft, und Ich bin euer Herr; so fürchtet Mich!"
And surely this your religion is one religion and I am your Lord, therefore be careful (of your duty) to Me.
And indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me."
وَإِنَّ هَٰذِهِۦٓ أُمَّتُكُمْ أُمَّةً وَٰحِدَةً وَأَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمْ فَٱتَّقُونِ
Aber sie spalteten sich in ihrer Angelegenheit untereinander nach (verschiedenen) Büchern'; und jede Gruppierung ist froh über das, was sie bei sich hat.
But they cut off their religion among themselves into sects, each part rejoicing in that which is with them.
But the people divided their religion among them into sects - each faction, in what it has, rejoicing.
فَتَقَطَّعُوٓا۟ أَمْرَهُم بَيْنَهُمْ زُبُرًا كُلُّ حِزْبٍۭ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ فَرِحُونَ
So lasse sie in ihrer Verwirrung für eine gewisse Zeit
Therefore leave them in their overwhelming ignorance till
So leave them in their confusion for a time.
فَذَرْهُمْ فِى غَمْرَتِهِمْ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ
Meinen sie etwa, daß Wir, wenn Wir sie mit Besitz und Söhnen unterstützen,
Do they think that by what We aid them with of wealth and children,
Do they think that what We extend to them of wealth and children
أَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّمَا نُمِدُّهُم بِهِۦ مِن مَّالٍ وَبَنِينَ
Uns beeilen, ihnen gute Dinge (zu gewähren)? Aber nein! Sie merken nicht.
We are hastening to them of good things? Nay, they do not perceive.
Is [because] We hasten for them good things? Rather, they do not perceive.
نُسَارِعُ لَهُمْ فِى ٱلْخَيْرَٰتِ بَل لَّا يَشْعُرُونَ
Gewiß, diejenigen, die aus Furcht vor ihrem Herrn besorgt sind
Surely they who from fear of their Lord are cautious,
Indeed, they who are apprehensive from fear of their Lord
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ هُم مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ رَبِّهِم مُّشْفِقُونَ
und die an die Zeichen ihres Herrn glauben
And those who believe in the communications of their Lord,
And they who believe in the signs of their Lord
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ
und die ihrem Herrn nicht(s) beigesellen
And those who do not associate (aught) with their Lord,
And they who do not associate anything with their Lord
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم بِرَبِّهِمْ لَا يُشْرِكُونَ
und die geben, was sie geben, während ihre Herzen sich (davor) ängstigen, weil sie zu ihrem Herrn zurückkehren werden,
And those who give what they give (in alms) while their hearts are full of fear that to their Lord they must return,
And they who give what they give while their hearts are fearful because they will be returning to their Lord -
وَٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْتُونَ مَآ ءَاتَوا۟ وَّقُلُوبُهُمْ وَجِلَةٌ أَنَّهُمْ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ رَٰجِعُونَ
diese beeilen sich mit den guten Dingen, und sie werden sie erreichen.
These hasten to good things and they are foremost in (attaining) them.
It is those who hasten to good deeds, and they outstrip [others] therein.
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ يُسَٰرِعُونَ فِى ٱلْخَيْرَٰتِ وَهُمْ لَهَا سَٰبِقُونَ
Wir erlegen keiner Seele mehr auf, als sie zu leisten vermag. Und bei Uns ist ein Buch, das die Wahrheit redet, und es wird ihnen kein Unrecht zugefügt.
And We do not lay on any soul a burden except to the extent of its ability, and with Us is a book which speaks the truth, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly.
And We charge no soul except [with that within] its capacity, and with Us is a record which speaks with truth; and they will not be wronged.
وَلَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا وَلَدَيْنَا كِتَٰبٌ يَنطِقُ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ
Aber nein! Ihre Herzen befinden sich in tiefer Achtlosigkeit davor'. Und es gibt bei ihnen (andere) Taten außer diesen, die sie ausführen.
Nay, their hearts are in overwhelming ignorance with respect to it and they have besides this other deeds which they do.
But their hearts are covered with confusion over this, and they have [evil] deeds besides disbelief which they are doing,
بَلْ قُلُوبُهُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍ مِّنْ هَٰذَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْمَٰلٌ مِّن دُونِ ذَٰلِكَ هُمْ لَهَا عَٰمِلُونَ
Wenn Wir dann diejenigen von ihnen, die üppig leben, mit der Strafe ergreifen, flehen sie sogleich laut um Hilfe.
Until when We overtake those who lead easy lives among them with punishment, lo! they cry for succor.
Until when We seize their affluent ones with punishment, at once they are crying [to Allah] for help.
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَخَذْنَا مُتْرَفِيهِم بِٱلْعَذَابِ إِذَا هُمْ يَجْـَٔرُونَ
"Fleht nicht um Hilfe heute, denn euch wird von Uns nicht geholfen.
Cry not for succor this day; surely you shall not be given help from Us.
Do not cry out today. Indeed, by Us you will not be helped.
لَا تَجْـَٔرُوا۟ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِنَّكُم مِّنَّا لَا تُنصَرُونَ
Meine Zeichen wurden euch bereits verlesen. Aber ihr pflegtet auf euren Fersen kehrtzumachen,
My communications were indeed recited to you, but you used to turn back on your heels,
My verses had already been recited to you, but you were turning back on your heels
قَدْ كَانَتْ ءَايَٰتِى تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ فَكُنتُمْ عَلَىٰٓ أَعْقَٰبِكُمْ تَنكِصُونَ
indem ihr euch davon hochmütig in eurem Nachtgeplauder abwandtet."
In arrogance; talking nonsense about the Quran, and left him like one telling fables by night.
In arrogance regarding it, conversing by night, speaking evil.
مُسْتَكْبِرِينَ بِهِۦ سَٰمِرًا تَهْجُرُونَ
Haben sie denn nicht über das Wort nachgedacht, oder ist zu ihnen gekommen, was nicht zu ihren Vorvätern kam?
Is it then that they do not ponder over what is said, or is it that there has come to them that which did not come to their fathers of old?
Then have they not reflected over the Qur'an, or has there come to them that which had not come to their forefathers?
أَفَلَمْ يَدَّبَّرُوا۟ ٱلْقَوْلَ أَمْ جَآءَهُم مَّا لَمْ يَأْتِ ءَابَآءَهُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Oder haben sie ihren Gesandten nicht erkannt, so daß sie ihn (nun) verwerfen?
Or is it that they have not recognized their Apostle, so that they deny him?
Or did they not know their Messenger, so they are toward him disacknowledging?
أَمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا۟ رَسُولَهُمْ فَهُمْ لَهُۥ مُنكِرُونَ
Oder sagen sie: "Er leidet an Besessenheit?" Nein! Vielmehr kam er zu ihnen mit der Wahrheit, aber den meisten von ihnen ist die Wahrheit zuwider.
Or do they say: There is madness in him? Nay! he has brought them the truth, and most of them are averse from the truth.
Or do they say, "In him is madness?" Rather, he brought them the truth, but most of them, to the truth, are averse.
أَمْ يَقُولُونَ بِهِۦ جِنَّةٌۢ بَلْ جَآءَهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلْحَقِّ كَٰرِهُونَ
Wenn die Wahrheit ihren Neigungen gefolgt wäre, gerieten die Himmel und die Erde und wer in ihnen ist wahrlich ins Verderben. Aber nein! Wir kamen zu ihnen mit ihrer Ermahnung, sie aber wenden sich von ihrer Ermahnung ab.
And should the truth follow their low desires, surely the heavens and the earth and all those who are therein would have perished. Nay! We have brought to them their reminder, but from their reminder they turn aside.
But if the Truth had followed their inclinations, the heavens and the earth and whoever is in them would have been ruined. Rather, We have brought them their message, but they, from their message, are turning away.
وَلَوِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلْحَقُّ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ لَفَسَدَتِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَن فِيهِنَّ بَلْ أَتَيْنَٰهُم بِذِكْرِهِمْ فَهُمْ عَن ذِكْرِهِم مُّعْرِضُونَ
Oder verlangst du von ihnen eine Entlohnung? Aber die Entlohnung deines Herrn ist besser, und Er ist der beste Versorger.
Or is it that you ask them a recompense? But the recompense of your Lord is best, and He is the best of those who provide sustenance.
Or do you, [O Muhammad], ask them for payment? But the reward of your Lord is best, and He is the best of providers.
أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ خَرْجًا فَخَرَاجُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ
Und du lädst sie wahrlich zu einem geraden Weg ein.
And most surely you invite them to a right way.
And indeed, you invite them to a straight path.
وَإِنَّكَ لَتَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ
Jene, die nicht an das Jenseits glauben, weichen fürwahr vom Weg ab.
And most surely those who do not believe in the hereafter are deviating from the way.
But indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter are deviating from the path.
وَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْءَاخِرَةِ عَنِ ٱلصِّرَٰطِ لَنَٰكِبُونَ
Wenn Wir Uns ihrer erbarmten und das Unheil, das auf ihnen ist, hinwegnähmen, würden sie wahrlich in ihrer Auflehnung verharren und umherirren.
And if We show mercy to them and remove the distress they have, they would persist in their inordinacy, blindly wandering on.
And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.
وَلَوْ رَحِمْنَٰهُمْ وَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِم مِّن ضُرٍّ لَّلَجُّوا۟ فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ
Wir haben sie ja mit der Strafe ergriffen. Aber weder unterwarfen sie sich ihrem Herrn noch flehten sie demütig.
And already We overtook them with chastisement, but they were not submissive to their Lord, nor do they humble themselves.
And We had gripped them with suffering [as a warning], but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, [and will continue thus]
وَلَقَدْ أَخَذْنَٰهُم بِٱلْعَذَابِ فَمَا ٱسْتَكَانُوا۟ لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ
Wenn Wir ihnen dann ein Tor zu strenger Strafe öffnen, sind sie darüber sogleich ganz verzweifelt.
Until when We open upon them a door of severe chastisement, lo! they are in despair at it.
Until when We have opened before them a door of severe punishment, immediately they will be therein in despair.
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا ذَا عَذَابٍ شَدِيدٍ إِذَا هُمْ فِيهِ مُبْلِسُونَ
Er ist es, Der euch Gehör, Augenlicht und Herzen hat entstehen lassen. Wie wenig dankbar ihr seid!
And He it is Who made for you the ears and the eyes and the hearts; little is it that you give thanks.
And it is He who produced for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنشَأَ لَكُمُ ٱلسَّمْعَ وَٱلْأَبْصَٰرَ وَٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةَ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ
Und Er ist es, Der euch auf der Erde (an Zahl) hat anwachsen lassen, und zu Ihm werdet ihr versammelt werden.
And He it is Who multiplied you in the earth, and to Him you shall be gathered.
And it is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى ذَرَأَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ
Und Er ist es, Der lebendig macht und sterben läßt; und auf Ihn geht der Unterschied von Nacht und Tag zurück. Begreift ihr denn nicht?
And He it is Who gives life and causes death, and (in) His (control) is the alternation of the night and the day; do you not then understand?
And it is He who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of the night and the day. Then will you not reason?
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ وَلَهُ ٱخْتِلَٰفُ ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
Aber nein! Sie sagen das gleiche, was die Früheren gesagt haben.
Nay, they say the like of what the ancients said:
Rather, they say like what the former peoples said.
بَلْ قَالُوا۟ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ
Sie sagen: "Wenn wir gestorben und zu Erde und Knochen geworden sind, sollen wir denn dann wirklich auferweckt werden?
They say: What! When we are dead and become dust and bones, shall we then be raised?
They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?
قَالُوٓا۟ أَءِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
Dies ist bereits zuvor uns und unseren Vätern versprochen worden. Das sind nur Fabeln der Früheren."
Certainly we are promised this, and (so were) our fathers aforetime; this is naught but stories of those of old.
We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples."
لَقَدْ وُعِدْنَا نَحْنُ وَءَابَآؤُنَا هَٰذَا مِن قَبْلُ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Sag: Wem gehört die Erde und wer auf ihr ist, wenn ihr (es) wißt?
Say: Whose is the earth, and whoever is therein, if you know?
Say, [O Muhammad], "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know?"
قُل لِّمَنِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَن فِيهَآ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
Sie werden sagen: "(Alles) gehört Allah." Bedenkt ihr denn nicht?
They will say: Allah's. Say: Will you not then mind?
They will say, "To Allah." Say, "Then will you not remember?"
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
Sag: Wer ist der Herr der sieben Himmel und der Herr des gewaltigen Thrones?
Say: Who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the mighty dominion?
Say, "Who is Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Great Throne?"
قُلْ مَن رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ ٱلسَّبْعِ وَرَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
Sie werden sagen: "(Alles) gehört Allah." Sag: Wollt ihr denn nicht gottesfürchtig sein?
They will say: (This is) Allah's. Say: Will you not then guard (against evil)?
They will say, "[They belong] to Allah." Say, "Then will you not fear Him?"
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Sag: In wessen Hand ist die Herrschaftsgewalt über alles, Der Schutz gewährt und gegen Den kein Schutz gewährt werden kann, wenn ihr wißt?
Say: Who is it in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things and Who gives succor, but against Him Succor is not given, if you do but know?
Say, "In whose hand is the realm of all things - and He protects while none can protect against Him - if you should know?"
قُلْ مَنۢ بِيَدِهِۦ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ وَهُوَ يُجِيرُ وَلَا يُجَارُ عَلَيْهِ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
Sie werden sagen: "(Alles) gehört Allah." Wieso seid ihr denn einem Zauber verfallen?
They will say: (This is) Allah's. Say: From whence are you then deceived?
They will say, "[All belongs] to Allah." Say, "Then how are you deluded?"
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِ قُلْ فَأَنَّىٰ تُسْحَرُونَ
Nein! Vielmehr sind Wir zu ihnen mit der Wahrheit gekommen, aber sie sind wahrlich Lügner.
Nay! We have brought to them the truth, and most surely they are liars.
Rather, We have brought them the truth, and indeed they are liars.
بَلْ أَتَيْنَٰهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ
Allah hat Sich keine Kinder genommen, und keinen Gott gibt es neben Ihm, sonst würde fürwahr jeder Gott das wegnehmen, was er erschaffen hat, und die einen von ihnen würden sich den anderen gegenüber wahrlich überheblich zeigen. Preis sei Allah, (und Erhaben ist Er) über das, was sie (Ihm) zuschreiben,
Never did Allah take to Himself a son, and never was there with him any (other) god - - in that case would each god have certainly taken away what he created, and some of them would certainly have overpowered others; glory be to Allah above what they describe!
Allah has not taken any son, nor has there ever been with Him any deity. [If there had been], then each deity would have taken what it created, and some of them would have sought to overcome others. Exalted is Allah above what they describe [concerning Him].
مَا ٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ مِن وَلَدٍ وَمَا كَانَ مَعَهُۥ مِنْ إِلَٰهٍ إِذًا لَّذَهَبَ كُلُّ إِلَٰهٍۭ بِمَا خَلَقَ وَلَعَلَا بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
Dem Kenner des Verborgenen und des Offenbaren! Erhaben ist Er über das, was sie (Ihm) beigesellen.
The Knower of the unseen and the seen, so may He be exalted above what they associate (with Him).
[He is] Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, so high is He above what they associate [with Him].
عَٰلِمِ ٱلْغَيْبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ فَتَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
Sag: Mein Herr, wenn immer Du mir zeigst, was ihnen angedroht wird,
Say: O my Lord! if Thou shouldst make me see what they are threatened with:
Say, [O Muhammad], "My Lord, if You should show me that which they are promised,
قُل رَّبِّ إِمَّا تُرِيَنِّى مَا يُوعَدُونَ
mein Herr, dann stelle mich nicht unter das ungerechte Volk.
My Lord! then place me not with the unjust.
My Lord, then do not place me among the wrongdoing people."
رَبِّ فَلَا تَجْعَلْنِى فِى ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
Wir haben fürwahr die Macht dazu, dir zu zeigen, was Wir ihnen androhen.
And most surely We are well able to make you see what We threaten them with.
And indeed, We are able to show you what We have promised them.
وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّرِيَكَ مَا نَعِدُهُمْ لَقَٰدِرُونَ
Wehre mit dem, was besser ist, das Böse ab. Wir wissen sehr wohl, was sie da zuschreiben.
Repel evil by what is best; We know best what they describe.
Repel, by [means of] what is best, [their] evil. We are most knowing of what they describe.
ٱدْفَعْ بِٱلَّتِى هِىَ أَحْسَنُ ٱلسَّيِّئَةَ نَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَصِفُونَ
Und sag: Mein Herr, ich nehme Zuflucht bei Dir vor den Aufstachelungen der Satane.
And say: O my Lord! I seek refuge in Thee from the evil suggestions of the Shaitans;
And say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils,
وَقُل رَّبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَٰتِ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِ
Und ich nehme Zuflucht bei Dir davor, mein Herr, daß sie mich aufsuchen.
And I seek refuge in Thee! O my Lord! from their presence.
And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me."
وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَن يَحْضُرُونِ
Wenn dann der Tod zu einem von ihnen kommt, sagt er: "Mein Herr, bringt mich zurück,
Until when death overtakes one of them, he says: Send me back, my Lord, send me back;
[For such is the state of the disbelievers], until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَ أَحَدَهُمُ ٱلْمَوْتُ قَالَ رَبِّ ٱرْجِعُونِ
auf daß ich rechtschaffen handele in dem, was ich hinterlassen habe." Keineswegs! Es ist nur ein Wort, das er (so) sagt; hinter ihnen wird ein trennendes Hindernis sein bis zu dem Tag, da sie auferweckt werden.
Haply I may do good in that which I have left. By no means! it is a (mere) word that he speaks; and before them is a barrier until the day they are raised.
That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected.
لَعَلِّىٓ أَعْمَلُ صَٰلِحًا فِيمَا تَرَكْتُ كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَآئِلُهَا وَمِن وَرَآئِهِم بَرْزَخٌ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
Wenn dann ins Horn geblasen wird, dann wird es zwischen ihnen keine Verwandt schaft mehr geben an jenem Tag, und sie fragen sich nicht mehr gegenseitig.
So when the trumpet is blown, there shall be no ties of relationship between them on that day, nor shall they ask of each other.
So when the Horn is blown, no relationship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask about one another.
فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَلَآ أَنسَابَ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَلَا يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
Wessen Waagschalen schwer sein werden, das sind diejenigen, denen es wohl ergeht.
Then as for him whose good deeds are preponderant, these are the .
And those whose scales are heavy [with good deeds] - it is they who are the .
فَمَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ
Wessen Waagschalen aber leicht sein werden, das sind diejenigen, die ihre Seelen verloren haben; in der Hölle werden sie ewig bleiben.
And as for him whose good deeds are light, these are they who shall have lost their souls, abiding in hell
But those whose scales are light - those are the ones who have lost their souls, [being] in Hell, abiding eternally.
وَمَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فِى جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدُونَ
Das Feuer schlägt in ihre Gesichter, und sie werden darin erblaßt sein..
The fire shall scorch their faces, and they therein shall be in severe affliction.
The Fire will sear their faces, and they therein will have taut smiles.
تَلْفَحُ وُجُوهَهُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَهُمْ فِيهَا كَٰلِحُونَ
Wurden euch nicht Meine Zeichen verlesen, ihr aber pflegtet sie für Lüge zu erklären?
Were not My communications recited to you? But you used to reject them.
[It will be said]. "Were not My verses recited to you and you used to deny them?"
أَلَمْ تَكُنْ ءَايَٰتِى تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ فَكُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ
Sie werden sagen: "Unser Herr, unser Unglück hat uns besiegt, und wir waren irregehende Leute.
They shall say: O our Lord! our adversity overcame us and we were an erring people:
They will say, "Our Lord, our wretchedness overcame us, and we were a people astray.
قَالُوا۟ رَبَّنَا غَلَبَتْ عَلَيْنَا شِقْوَتُنَا وَكُنَّا قَوْمًا ضَآلِّينَ
Unser Herr, bringe uns aus ihr heraus. Wenn wir rückfällig werden, dann sind wir (wirklich) ungerecht."
O our Lord! Take us out of it; then if we return (to evil) surely we shall be unjust.
Our Lord, remove us from it, and if we were to return [to evil], we would indeed be wrongdoers."
رَبَّنَآ أَخْرِجْنَا مِنْهَا فَإِنْ عُدْنَا فَإِنَّا ظَٰلِمُونَ
Er sagt: "Seid darin verstoßen, und sprecht nicht mit Mir.
He shall say: Go away into it and speak not to Me;
He will say, "Remain despised therein and do not speak to Me.
قَالَ ٱخْسَـُٔوا۟ فِيهَا وَلَا تُكَلِّمُونِ
Gewiß, eine Gruppe von Meinen Dienern pflegte zu sagen: .Unser Herr, wir glauben, so vergib uns und erbarme Dich unser, denn Du bist der Beste der Barmherzigen.'
Surely there was a party of My servants who said: O our Lord! we believe, so do Thou forgive us and have mercy on us, and Thou art the best of the Merciful ones.
Indeed, there was a party of My servants who said, 'Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and You are the best of the merciful.'
إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فَرِيقٌ مِّنْ عِبَادِى يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَآ ءَامَنَّا فَٱغْفِرْ لَنَا وَٱرْحَمْنَا وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰحِمِينَ
Aber ihr nahmt sie zum Gegenstand des Spottes, bis ihr ihretwegen Meine Ermahnung vergaßt, und ihr pflegtet über sie zu lachen.
But you took them for a mockery until they made you forget My remembrance and you used to laugh at them.
But you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My remembrance, and you used to laugh at them.
فَٱتَّخَذْتُمُوهُمْ سِخْرِيًّا حَتَّىٰٓ أَنسَوْكُمْ ذِكْرِى وَكُنتُم مِّنْهُمْ تَضْحَكُونَ
Ich habe ihnen heute, daß sie standhaft waren, damit vergolten, daß sie die Erfolgreichen sind."
Surely I have rewarded them this day because they were patient, that they are the achievers.
Indeed, I have rewarded them this Day for their patient endurance - that they are the attainers [of success]."
إِنِّى جَزَيْتُهُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ بِمَا صَبَرُوٓا۟ أَنَّهُمْ هُمُ ٱلْفَآئِزُونَ
Er wird sagen: "Wie viele Jahre habt ihr in der Erde verweilt?"
He will say: How many years did you tarry in the earth?
[Allah] will say, "How long did you remain on earth in number of years?"
قَٰلَ كَمْ لَبِثْتُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ عَدَدَ سِنِينَ
Sie werden sagen: "Verweilt haben wir einen Tag oder den Teil von einem Tag; doch frage diejenigen, die zählen (können)."
They will say: We tarried a day or part of a day, but ask those who keep account.
They will say, "We remained a day or part of a day; ask those who enumerate."
قَالُوا۟ لَبِثْنَا يَوْمًا أَوْ بَعْضَ يَوْمٍ فَسْـَٔلِ ٱلْعَآدِّينَ
Er wird sagen: "Ihr habt nur ein wenig verweilt, wenn ihr doch nur wüßtet!
He will say: You did tarry but a little - - had you but known (it):
He will say, "You stayed not but a little - if only you had known.
قَٰلَ إِن لَّبِثْتُمْ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا لَّوْ أَنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
Meint ihr denn, daß Wir euch zum sinnlosen Spiel erschaffen hätten und daß ihr nicht zu Uns zurückgebracht würdet?"
What! did you then think that We had created you in vain and that you shall not be returned to Us?
Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?"
أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ
Doch Erhaben ist Allah, der König, der Wahre. Es gibt keinen Gott außer Ihm, dem Herrn des ehrwürdigen Thrones.
So exalted be Allah, the True King; no god is there but He, the Lord of the honorable dominion.
So exalted is Allah, the Sovereign, the Truth; there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne.
فَتَعَٰلَى ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْحَقُّ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْكَرِيمِ
Und wer neben Allah einen anderen Gott anruft, für den er keinen Beweis hat, dessen Abrechnung liegt nur bei seinem Herrn. Gewiß, den Ungläubigen wird es nicht wohl ergehen.
And whoever invokes with Allah another god - - he has no proof of this - - his reckoning is only with his Lord; surely the unbelievers shall not be .
And whoever invokes besides Allah another deity for which he has no proof - then his account is only with his Lord. Indeed, the disbelievers will not succeed.
وَمَن يَدْعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ لَا بُرْهَٰنَ لَهُۥ بِهِۦ فَإِنَّمَا حِسَابُهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّهِۦٓ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُفْلِحُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ
Und sag: Mein Herr, vergib und erbarme Dich, denn Du bist der Beste der Barmherzigen.
And say: O my Lord! forgive and have mercy, and Thou art the best of the Merciful ones.
And, [O Muhammad], say, "My Lord, forgive and have mercy, and You are the best of the merciful."
وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱغْفِرْ وَٱرْحَمْ وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰحِمِينَ
