7 Then as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand,

8 He surely will receive an easy reckoning,

8 He truly will receive an easy reckoning

9 And return to his people in happiness.

9 And will return to his family in joy!

9 And will return unto his folk in joy.

10 But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

10 But whosoever is given his Record behind his back,

11 He will invoke (for his) destruction,

11 He surely will invoke destruction

12 And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

13 Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness;

13 Verily, he was among his people in joy!

13 He verily lived joyous with his folk,

14 Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].

14 Verily, he thought that he would never come back (to Us)!

14 He verily deemed that he would never return (unto Allah).

15 But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.

15 Yes! Verily, his Lord has been ever beholding him!

15 Nay, but lo! his Lord is ever looking on him!

16 So I swear by the twilight glow

16 So I swear by the afterglow of sunset;

16 Oh, I swear by the afterglow of sunset,

17 And [by] the night and what it envelops

17 And by the night and whatever it gathers in its darkness,

17 And by the night and all that it enshroudeth,

18 And [by] the moon when it becomes full

18 And by the moon when it is at the full.

18 And by the moon when she is at the full,

19 [That] you will surely experience state after state.

19 You shall certainly travel from stage to stage (in this life and in the Hereafter).

20 So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

20 What is the matter with them, that they believe not?

21 And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?

21 And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they fall not prostrate.

21 And, when the Qur'an is recited unto them, worship not (Allah) ?

22 But those who have disbelieved deny,

22 Nay, those who disbelieve belie (Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and whatever he brought, i.e. this Qur'an and Islamic Monotheism, etc.).

22 Nay, but those who disbelieve will deny;

23 And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

23 And Allah knows best what they gather (of good and bad deeds),

23 And Allah knoweth best what they are hiding.

24 So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

24 So announce to them a painful torment.

24 So give them tidings of a painful doom,

25 Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.

25 Save those who believe and do righteous good deeds, for them is a reward that will never come to an end (i.e. Paradise).

25 Save those who believe and do good works, for theirs is a reward unfailing.
