Und es gibt niemanden unter uns, der nicht einen bestimmten Platz hätte.
(Those ranged in ranks say): "Not one of us but has a place appointed;
[The angels say], "There is not among us any except that he has a known position.
Wahrlich, wir sind es, die sich (reihenweise) reihen,
"And we are verily ranged in ranks (for service);
And indeed, we are those who line up [for prayer].
und wahrlich, wir sind es, die preisen.
"And we are verily those who declare (Allah's) glory!"
And indeed, we are those who exalt Allah."
Und sie pflegten zu sagen:
And there were those who said,
And indeed, the disbelievers used to say,
"Wenn wir nur eine Ermahnung (gleich derjenigen) der Früheren hätten,
"If only we had had before us a Message from those of old,
"If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,
dann wären wir fürwahr Allahs auserlesene Diener."
"We should certainly have been Servants of Allah, sincere (and devoted)!"
We would have been the chosen servants of Allah."
Dennoch verleugnen sie Ihn. Aber sie werden (es noch) erfahren.
But (now that the Qur'an has come), they reject it: But soon will they know!
But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.
Es erging bereits früher Unser Wort an Unsere gesandten Diener:
Already has Our Word been passed before (this) to our Servants sent (by Us),
And Our word has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,
Wahrlich, sie sind es, denen Hilfe zuteil wird.
That they would certainly be assisted,
[That] indeed, they would be those given victory
Und wahrlich, Unsere Heerschar ist es, die Sieger sein wird.
And that Our forces, - they surely must conquer.
And [that] indeed, Our soldiers will be those who overcome.
So kehre dich für eine gewisse Zeit von ihnen ab
So turn thou away from them for a little while,
So, [O Muhammad], leave them for a time.
und sieh sie dir an. Auch sie werden sehen.
And watch them (how they fare), and they soon shall see (how thou farest)!
And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.
Wünschen sie denn Unsere Strafe zu beschleunigen?
Do they wish (indeed) to hurry on our Punishment?
Then for Our punishment are they impatient?
Wenn sie sich aber in ihre Höfe niederläßt, wie böse wird dann der Morgen der Gewarnten sein!
But when it descends into the open space before them, evil will be the morning for those who were warned (and heeded not)!
But when it descends in their territory, then evil is the morning of those who were warned.
Und kehre dich für eine gewisse Zeit von ihnen ab
So turn thou away from them for a little while,
And leave them for a time.
und sieh zu. Auch sie werden sehen.
And watch (how they fare) and they soon shall see (how thou farest)!
And see, for they are going to see.
Preis sei deinem Herrn, dem Herrn der Macht! (Erhaben ist Er) über das, was sie (Ihm) zuschreiben.
Glory to thy Lord, the Lord of Honour and Power! (He is free) from what they ascribe (to Him)!
Exalted is your Lord, the Lord of might, above what they describe.
Und Friede sei auf den Gesandten!
And Peace on the messengers!
And peace upon the messengers.
Und (alles) Lob gehört Allah, dem Herrn der Weltenbewohner!
And Praise to Allah, the Lord and Cherisher of the Worlds.
And praise to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
