Bei dem deutlichen Buch!
By the Book that makes things clear; -

وَٱلْكِتَٰبِ ٱلْمُبِينِ
Wir haben es wahrlich in einer gesegneten Nacht herabgesandt - Wir haben ja (die Menschen) immer wieder gewarnt -,
We sent it down during a Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).
Surely We revealed it on a blessed night surely We are ever warning - -
إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَٰهُ فِى لَيْلَةٍ مُّبَٰرَكَةٍ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ
in der jede weise Angelegenheit einzeln entschieden wird
In the (Night) is made distinct every affair of wisdom,
Therein every wise affair is made distinct,
فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
als eine Angelegenheit von Uns aus - Wir haben ja immer wieder (Warner) gesandt -,
By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations),
A command from Us; surely We are the senders (of apostles),

als eine Barmherzigkeit von deinem Herrn - gewiß, Er ist der Allhörende und Allwissende -,
As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (all things);
A mercy from your Lord, surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing,
رَحْمَةً مِّن رَّبِّكَ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَآ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ
Es gibt keinen Gott außer Ihm. Er macht lebendig und läßt sterben, (Er), euer Herr und der Herr eurer Vorväter.
There is no god but He: It is He Who gives life and gives death, - The Lord and Cherisher to you and your earliest ancestors.

لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Aber nein! Sie sind im Zweifel und treiben ihr Spiel.
Yet they play about in doubt.
Nay, they are in doubt, they sport.
بَلْ هُمْ فِى شَكٍّ يَلْعَبُونَ
So erwarte den Tag, an dem der Himmel deutlichen Rauch hervorbringt,
Then watch thou for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke (or mist) plainly visible,
Therefore keep waiting for the day when the heaven shall bring an evident smoke,
فَٱرْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِى ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُّبِينٍ
der die Menschen überdecken wird. Das ist eine schmerzhafte Strafe.
Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.
That shall overtake men; this is a painful punishment.
يَغْشَى ٱلنَّاسَ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
Unser Herr, nimm die Strafe von uns hinweg; wir sind (jetzt) ja gläubig.
(They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"
Our Lord! remove from us the punishment; surely we are believers.
رَّبَّنَا ٱكْشِفْ عَنَّا ٱلْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ
Wie soll ihnen (jetzt) die Selbstbesinnung nützen, wo bereits ein deutlicher Gesandter zu ihnen kam,
How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them, -
How shall they be reminded, and there came to them an Apostle making clear (the truth),
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ وَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مُّبِينٌ
sie sich hierauf aber von ihm abkehrten und sagten: "Einer, dem vorgesagt wird, ein Besessener"?
Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"
Yet they turned their backs on him and said: One taught (by others), a madman.
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا۟ مُعَلَّمٌ مَّجْنُونٌ
Wir werden die Strafe ein wenig hinwegnehmen. Ihr werdet sicher zurückkehren.
We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).
Surely We will remove the punishment a little, (but) you will surely return (to evil).

يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ ٱلْبَطْشَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰٓ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ
Und Wir setzten bereits vor ihnen das Volk Fir'auns der Versuchung aus. Zu ihnen kam ein edler Gesandter:
We did, before them, try the people of Pharaoh: there came to them a messenger most honourable,
And certainly We tried before them the people of Firon, and there came to them a noble apostle,
وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ كَرِيمٌ
"Übergebt mir Allahs Diener. Gewiß, ich bin für euch ein vertrauenswürdiger Gesandter.
Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;

And that do not exalt yourselves against Allah, surely I will bring to you a clear authority:
وَأَن لَّا تَعْلُوا۟ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ إِنِّىٓ ءَاتِيكُم بِسُلْطَٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ
Und gewiß, ich nehme Zuflucht bei meinem Herrn und eurem Herrn davor, daß ihr mich steinigt.
"For me, I have sought safety with my Lord and your Lord, against your injuring me.
And surely I take refuge with my Lord and your Lord that you should stone me to death:
وَإِنِّى عُذْتُ بِرَبِّى وَرَبِّكُمْ أَن تَرْجُمُونِ
Und wenn ihr mir nicht glaubt, dann haltet euch (wenigstens) fern von mir."
"If ye believe me not, at least keep yourselves away from me."
And if you do not believe in me, then leave me alone.
وَإِن لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوا۟ لِى فَٱعْتَزِلُونِ
Da rief er zu seinem Herrn: "Diese sind ein Volk von Übeltätern."
(But they were aggressive:) then he cried to his Lord: "These are indeed a people given to sin."
Then he called upon his Lord: These are a guilty people.
فَدَعَا رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوْمٌ مُّجْرِمُونَ
- "Zieh bei Nacht mit Meinen Dienern fort; ihr werdet ja verfolgt werden.
(The reply came:) "March forth with My Servants by night: for ye are sure to be pursued.
So go forth with My servants by night; surely you will be pursued:
فَأَسْرِ بِعِبَادِى لَيْلًا إِنَّكُم مُّتَّبَعُونَ
Und laß das Meer in Ruhe zurück'. Gewiß, sie sind eine Heerschar, die ertränkt werden soll."
"And leave the sea as a furrow (divided): for they are a host (destined) to be drowned."
And leave the sea intervening; surely they are a host that shall be drowned.
وَٱتْرُكِ ٱلْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا إِنَّهُمْ جُندٌ مُّغْرَقُونَ
Wie viele Gärten und Quellen ließen sie zurück
How many were the gardens and springs they left behind,
How many of the gardens and fountains have they left!
كَمْ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
und Getreidefelder und treffliche Stätte
And corn - fields and noble buildings,
And cornfields and noble places!
وَزُرُوعٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ
und ein angenehmes Leben, in dem sie vergnügt waren!
And wealth (and conveniences of life), wherein they had taken such delight!
And goodly things wherein they rejoiced;
وَنَعْمَةٍ كَانُوا۟ فِيهَا فَٰكِهِينَ
So (war es). Und Wir gaben es anderen Leuten zum Erbe.
Thus (was their end)! And We made other people inherit (those things)!
Thus (it was), and We gave them as a heritage to another people.
كَذَٰلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَٰهَا قَوْمًا ءَاخَرِينَ
Weder Himmel noch Erde weinte über sie, und ihnen wurde kein Aufschub gewährt.
And neither heaven nor earth shed a tear over them: nor were they given a respite (again).
So the heaven and the earth did not weep for them, nor were they respited.
فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِينَ
Und Wir erretteten bereits die Kinder lsra'ils von der schmachvollen Qual,
We did deliver aforetime the Children of Israel from humiliating Punishment,
And certainly We delivered the children of Israel from the abasing chastisement,

von Fir'aun. Er war überheblich und einer der Maßlosen.
Inflicted by Pharaoh, for he was arrogant (even) among inordinate transgressors.
From Firon; surely he was haughty, (and) one of the extravagant.
مِن فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِيًا مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ
Und Wir erwählten sie ja mit Wissen vor den (anderen) Weltenbewohnern
And We chose them aforetime above the nations, knowingly,
And certainly We chose them, having knowledge, above the nations.
وَلَقَدِ ٱخْتَرْنَٰهُمْ عَلَىٰ عِلْمٍ عَلَى ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
und ließen ihnen von den Zeichen solche zukommen, die eine deutliche Prüfung enthielten.
And granted them Signs in which there was a manifest trial
And We gave them of the communications wherein was clear blessing.
وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلْءَايَٰتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَٰٓؤٌا۟ مُّبِينٌ
Diese sagen fürwahr:
As to these (Quraish), they say forsooth:

"Then bring (back) our forefathers, if what ye say is true!"
So bring our fathers (back), if you are truthful.
فَأْتُوا۟ بِـَٔابَآئِنَآ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ

What! Are they better than the people of Tubba and those who were before them? We destroyed them because they were guilty of sin.
Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty.
أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ أَهْلَكْنَٰهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ مُجْرِمِينَ

der Tag, an dem kein Schutzherr seinem Schützling etwas nützen kann und ihnen keine Hilfe zuteil wird,
The Day when no protector can avail his client in aught, and no help can they receive,
The day on which a friend shall not avail (his) friend aught, nor shall they be helped,
يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى مَوْلًى عَن مَّوْلًى شَيْـًٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
außer demjenigen, dessen Allah sich erbarmt. Er ist ja der Allmächtige und Barmherzige.
Except such as receive Allah's Mercy: for He is Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.
