57 We created you: then why do you believe not?

57 We have created you, why do you not then assent?

58 Have ye seen that which ye emit ?

58 Then tell Me (about) the (human) semen that you emit.

58 Have you considered the seed?

59 Do ye create it or are We the Creator ?

59 Is it you who create it (i.e. make this semen into a perfect human being), or are We the Creator?

59 Is it you that create it or are We the creators?

60 We mete out death among you, and We are not to be outrun,

62 And certainly you know the first growth, why do you not then mind?

63 Have ye seen that which ye cultivate ?

63 Then tell Me about the seed that you sow in the ground.

63 Have you considered what you sow?

65 If We willed, We verily could make it chaff, then would ye cease not to exclaim:

65 Were it Our Will, We could crumble it to dry pieces, and you would be regretful (or left in wonderment) [Tafsir Ibn Kathir].

65 If We pleased, We should have certainly made it broken down into pieces, then would you begin to lament:

66 Lo! we are laden with debt!

66 (Saying): "We are indeed Mughramun (i.e. ruined or have lost the money without any profit, or are punished by the loss of all that we spend for cultivation)! (Tafsir Al-Qurtubi)

75 Nay, I swear by the places of the stars -

75 So I swear by the setting of the stars.

75 But nay! I swear by the falling of stars;

76 And lo! that verily is a tremendous oath, if ye but knew -

76 And verily that is indeed a great oath, if you but know.

76 And most surely it is a very great oath if you only knew;

77 That (this) is indeed a noble Qur'an

77 That (this) is indeed an honourable recitation (the Noble Qur'an).

77 Most surely it is an honored Quran,

78 In a Book kept hidden

78 In a book that is protected

79 Which none toucheth save the purified,

80 A revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.

80 A Revelation (this Qur'an) from the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists).

80 A revelation by the Lord of the worlds.

81 Is it this Statement that ye scorn,

81 Is it such a talk (this Qur'an) that you (disbelievers) deny?

81 Do you then hold this announcement in contempt?

82 And make denial thereof your livelihood ?

82 And instead (of thanking Allah) for the provision He gives you, you deny (Him by disbelief)!

82 And to give (it) the lie you make your means of subsistence.

83 Why, then, when (the soul) cometh up to the throat (of the dying)

83 Then why do you not (intervene) when (the soul of a dying person) reaches the throat?

83 Why is it not then that when it (soul) comes up to the throat,

84 And ye are at that moment looking

84 And you at the moment are looking on,

84 And you at that time look on - -

85 - And We are nearer unto him than ye are, but ye see not -

85 But We (i.e. Our angels who take the soul) are nearer to him than you, but you see not, (Tafsir At-Tabari)

85 And We are nearer to it than you, but you do not see - -

86 Why then, if ye are not in bondage (unto Us),

86 Then why do you not - if you are exempt from the reckoning and recompense (punishment) -

86 Then why is it not - - if you are not held under authority - -

87 Do ye not force it back, if ye are truthful ?

87 Bring back the soul (to its body), if you are truthful?

87 That you send it (not) back - - if you are truthful?

88 Thus if he is of those brought nigh,

88 Then, if he (the dying person) be of the Muqarrabun (those brought near to Allah),

88 Then if he is one of those drawn nigh (to Allah),

89 Then breath of life, and plenty, and a Garden of delight.

89 (There is for him) rest and provision, and a Garden of Delights (Paradise).

89 Then happiness and bounty and a garden of bliss.

90 And if he is of those on the right hand,

90 And if he (the dying person) be of those on the Right Hand,

90 And if he is one of those on the right hand,

91 Then (the greeting) "Peace be unto thee" from those on the right hand.

91 Then there is safety and peace (from the Punishment of Allah) for those on the right Hand.

91 Then peace to you from those on the right hand.

92 But if he is of the rejecters, the erring,

92 But if he (the dying person) be of the denying (of the Resurrection), the erring (away from the Right Path of Islamic Monotheism),

92 And if he is one of the rejecters, the erring ones,

93 Then the welcome will be boiling water

93 Then for him is an entertainment with boiling water.

93 He shall have an entertainment of boiling water,

94 And roasting at hell - fire.

94 And burning in Hell-fire.

94 And burning in hell.

95 Lo! this is certain truth.

95 Verily, this! This is an absolute Truth with certainty.

95 Most surely this is a certain truth.

96 Therefor (O Muhammad) praise the name of thy Lord, the Tremendous.

96 So glorify with praises the Name of your Lord, the Most Great.

96 Therefore glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.
