Chapter 78, 40 verses
Wonach fragen sie sich?
Concerning what are they disputing?
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Whereof do they question one another ?
عَمَّ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
Nach der gewaltigen Kunde,
Concerning the Great News,
(It is) of the awful tidings,
عَنِ ٱلنَّبَإِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
über die sie sich uneinig sind.
About which they cannot agree.
Concerning which they are in disagreement.
ٱلَّذِى هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ
Keineswegs! Sie werden (es noch) erfahren.
Verily, they shall soon (come to) know!
Nay, but they will come to know!
كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ
Abermals: Keineswegs! Sie werden (es noch) erfahren.
Verily, verily they shall soon (come to) know!
Nay, again, but they will come to know!
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ
Haben Wir nicht die Erde zu einer Lagerstatt gemacht
Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse,
Have We not made the earth an expanse,
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِهَٰدًا
und die Berge zu Pfählen?
And the mountains as pegs?
And the high hills bulwarks ?
وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا
Und Wir haben euch als Paare erschaffen.
And (have We not) created you in pairs,
And We have created you in pairs,
وَخَلَقْنَٰكُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا
Und Wir haben euren Schlaf zum Ausruhen gemacht.
And made your sleep for rest,
And have appointed your sleep for repose,
وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا
Und Wir haben die Nacht zum Kleid gemacht.
And made the night as a covering,
And have appointed the night as a cloak,
وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا
Und Wir haben den Tag zur Lebensführung gemacht.
And made the day as a means of subsistence?
And have appointed the day for livelihood.
وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلنَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا
Und Wir haben über euch sieben feste (Himmel) aufgebaut.
And (have We not) built over you the seven firmaments,
And We have built above you seven strong (heavens),
وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا
Und Wir haben einen hell glühenden Leuchtkörper gemacht.
And placed (therein) a Light of Splendour?
And have appointed a dazzling lamp,
وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا
Und Wir haben von den Regenwolken sich ergießendes Wasser herabkommen lassen,
And do We not send down from the clouds water in abundance,
And have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water,
وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُعْصِرَٰتِ مَآءً ثَجَّاجًا
um damit Korn und Gewächse hervorzubringen
That We may produce therewith corn and vegetables,
Thereby to produce grain and plant,
لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِۦ حَبًّا وَنَبَاتًا
und dichtbestandene Gärten.
And gardens of luxurious growth?
And gardens of thick foliage.
وَجَنَّٰتٍ أَلْفَافًا
Gewiß, der Tag der Entscheidung ist eine festgesetzte Zeit,
Verily the Day of Sorting out is a thing appointed,
Lo! the Day of Decision is a fixed time,
إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَٰتًا
der Tag, da ins Horn geblasen wird und ihr in Scharen herkommt
The Day that the Trumpet shall be sounded, and ye shall come forth in crowds;
A day when the trumpet is blown and ye come in multitudes,
يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًا
und da der Himmel geöffnet und dann zu Toren wird
And the heavens shall be opened as if there were doors,
And the heaven is opened and becometh as gates,
وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَٰبًا
und da die Berge versetzt und dann zu einer Luftspiegelung werden.
And the mountains shall vanish, as if they were a mirage.
And the hills are set in motion and become as a mirage.
وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا
Gewiß, die Hölle ist ein Hinterhalt,
Truly Hell is as a place of ambush,
Lo! hell lurketh in ambush,
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا
für diejenigen, die das Maß (an Frevel) überschreiten, eine Heimstatt,
For the transgressors a place of destination:
A home for the rebellious.
لِّلطَّٰغِينَ مَـَٔابًا
lange Zeiten darin zu verweilen;
They will dwell therein for ages.

لَّٰبِثِينَ فِيهَآ أَحْقَابًا
sie werden darin weder Kühlung noch Getränk kosten,
Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink,
Therein taste they neither coolness nor (any) drink
لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًا وَلَا شَرَابًا
außer heißem Wasser und stinkender Brühe,
Save a boiling fluid and a fluid, dark, murky, intensely cold,
Save boiling water and a paralysing cold:
إِلَّا حَمِيمًا وَغَسَّاقًا
als angemessene Vergeltung.
A fitting recompense (for them).
Reward proportioned (to their evil deeds).
جَزَآءً وِفَاقًا
Sie erwarteten ja niemals eine Abrechnung
For that they used not to fear any account (for their deeds),
For lo! they looked not for a reckoning;
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا
und erklärten Unsere Zeichen hartnäckig für Lüge.
But they (impudently) treated Our Signs as false.
They called Our revelations false with strong denial.
وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كِذَّابًا
Doch alles haben Wir schriftlich erfaßt.
And all things have We preserved on record.
Everything have We recorded in a Book.
وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَٰهُ كِتَٰبًا
So kostet; Wir werden euch nur die Strafe mehren.
"So taste ye (the fruits of your deeds); for no increase shall We grant you, except in Punishment."
So taste (of that which ye have earned). No increase do We give you save of torment.
فَذُوقُوا۟ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا
Gewiß, für die Gottesfürchtigen wird es einen Ort des Erfolgs geben,
Verily for the Righteous there will be a fulfilment of (the heart's) desires;
Lo! for the duteous is achievement -
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا
umfriedete Gärten und Rebstöcke
Gardens enclosed, and grapevines;
Gardens enclosed and vineyards,
حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعْنَٰبًا
und prächtige, gleichaltrige (weibliche Wesen)
And voluptuous women of equal age;
And maidens for companions,
وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا
und ein (stets) voller Becher.
And a cup full (to the brim).
And a full cup.
وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا
Weder hören sie darin unbedachte Rede noch Lüge.
No vanity shall they hear therein, nor Untruth: -
There hear they never vain discourse, nor lying -
لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّٰبًا
(Dies) als Belohnung von deinem Herrn, als hinreichende Gabe,
Recompense from thy Lord, a gift, (amply) sufficient,
Requital from thy Lord - a gift in payment -
جَزَآءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَابًا
dem Herrn der Himmel und der Erde und dessen, was dazwischen ist, dem Allerbarmer. Sie verfügen nicht darüber, vor Ihm zu reden,
(From) the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all between, (Allah) Most Gracious: None shall have power to argue with Him.
Lord of the heavens and the earth, and (all) that is between them, the Beneficent; with Whom none can converse.
رَّبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا
am Tag, da der Geist und die Engel in Reihe stehen. Sie werden nicht sprechen, außer wem der Allerbarmer es erlaubt und wer Richtiges sagt.
The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand forth in ranks, none shall speak except any who is permitted by (Allah) Most Gracious, and He will say what is right.
On the day when the angels and the Spirit stand arrayed, they speak not, saving him whom the Beneficent alloweth and who speaketh right.
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ صَفًّا لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا
Das ist der wahrhaftig (eintreffend)e Tag. Wer nun will, nimmt zu seinem Herrn eine Heimkehr.
That Day will be the sure Reality: Therefore, whoso will, let him take a (straight) return to his Lord!
That is the True Day. So whoso will should seek recourse unto his Lord.
ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلْحَقُّ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔابًا
Wir warnen euch ja vor naher Strafe, am Tag, da der Mensch schauen wird, was seine Hände vorausgeschickt haben, und der Ungläubige sagen wird: "O wäre ich doch Erde!"
Verily, We have warned you of a Penalty near, the Day when man will see (the deeds) which his hands have sent forth, and the Unbeliever will say, "Woe unto me! Would that I were (metre) dust!"
Lo! We warn you of a doom at hand, a day whereon a man will look on that which his own hands have sent before, and the will cry: "Would that I were dust!"
إِنَّآ أَنذَرْنَٰكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلْكَافِرُ يَٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٰبًۢا
