Chapter 93, 11 verses
Bei der Morgenhelle
By the morning brightness
I swear by the early hours of the day,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
And the night when it covers with darkness.
And by the night when it is stillest,
Dein Herr hat sich weder von dir verabschiedet noch haßt Er (dich).
Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,
Und das Jenseits ist wahrlich besser für dich als das Diesseits.
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].
And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,
Und dein Herr wird dir wahrlich geben, und dann wirst du zufrieden sein.
And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.
Hat Er dich nicht als Waise gefunden und (dir) dann Zuflucht verschafft
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?
und dich irregehend gefunden und dann rechtgeleitet
And He found you lost and guided [you],
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
und dich arm gefunden und dann reich gemacht?
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
Was nun die Waise angeht, so unterjoche (sie) nicht,
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
und was die Gunst deines Herrn angeht, so erzähle (davon).
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
