4 (Self - )destroyed were the owners of the ditch

4 Cursed were the companions of the trench

5 Of the fuel - fed fire,

5 [Containing] the fire full of fuel,

6 When they sat by it,

6 When they were sitting near it

7 And were themselves the witnesses of what they did to the believers.

7 And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses.

8 They had naught against them save that they believed in Allah, the Mighty, the Owner of Praise,

8 And they resented them not except because they believed in Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy,

9 Him unto Whom belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is of all things the Witness.

9 To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah, over all things, is Witness.

10 Lo! they who persecute believing men and believing women and repent not, theirs verily will be the doom of hell, and theirs the doom of burning.
