Chapter 88, 26 verses
Ist zu dir die Geschichte der Überdeckenden gekommen?
Has not there come to you the news of the overwhelming calamity?
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)?
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَٰشِيَةِ
(Die einen) Gesichter werden an jenem Tag demütig sein,
(Some) faces on that day shall be downcast,
Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated,
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَٰشِعَةٌ
sich abarbeitend und von Mühsal erfüllt,
Laboring, toiling,
Labouring (hard), weary, -
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ
einem sehr heißen Feuer ausgesetzt,
Entering into burning fire,
The while they enter the Blazing Fire, -
تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً
und aus einer siedenden Quelle zu trinken bekommen.
Made to drink from a boiling spring.
The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring,
تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍ
Es wird für sie keine Speise geben außer aus trockenen Dornen,
They shall have no food but of thorns,
No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari'
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍ
die weder fett machen noch gegen den Hunger nützen.
Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger.
Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger.
لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍ
(Die anderen) Gesichter werden an jenem Tag wonnig sein,
(Other) faces on that day shall be happy,
(Other) faces that Day will be joyful,
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاعِمَةٌ
mit ihrem Bemühen zufrieden
Well - pleased because of their striving,
Pleased with their striving, -
لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ
und in einem hohen Garten,
In a lofty garden,
In a Garden on high,
فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ
worin sie keine unbedachte Rede hören.
Wherein you shall not hear vain talk.
Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity:
لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَٰغِيَةً
Darin gibt es eine fließende Quelle,
Therein is a fountain flowing,
Therein will be a bubbling spring:
فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ
darin gibt es erhöhte Liegen
Therein are thrones raised high,
Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high,
فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَّرْفُوعَةٌ
und hingestellte Trinkschalen
And drinking - cups ready placed,
Goblets placed (ready),
وَأَكْوَابٌ مَّوْضُوعَةٌ
und aufgereihte Kissen
And cushions set in a row,
And cushions set in rows,
وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ
und ausgebreitete Teppiche.
And carpets spread out.
And rich carpets (all) spread out.
وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ
Schauen sie denn nicht zu den Kamelen, wie sie erschaffen worden sind,
Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created?
Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made? -
أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ
und zum Himmel, wie er emporgehoben worden ist,
And the heaven, how it is reared aloft,
And at the Sky, how it is raised high? -
وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ
und zu den Bergen, wie sie aufgerichtet worden sind,
And the mountains, how they are firmly fixed,
And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm? -
وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ
und zur Erde, wie sie flach gemacht worden ist?
And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse?
And at the Earth, how it is spread out?
وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ
So ermahne; du bist nur ein Ermahner.
Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder.
Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.
فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ
Du übst nicht die Oberherrschaft über sie aus.
You are not a watcher over them;
Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs.
لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ
Wer sich aber abkehrt und ungläubig ist,
But whoever turns back and disbelieves,
But if any turn away and reject Allah, -
إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ
den straft dann Allah mit der größten Strafe.
Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement.
Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment,
فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ
Gewiß, zu Uns ist ihre Rückkehr
Surely to Us is their turning back,
For to Us will be their return;
إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ
und gewiß, hierauf obliegt Uns ihre Abrechnung.
Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account.
Then it will be for Us to call them to account.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم
