Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the racers, panting,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
Bei den schnaubend Rennenden,
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
Striking sparks of fire
den (mit ihren Hufen) Funken Schlagenden,
Then those that produce fire striking,
And the chargers at dawn,
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
den am Morgen Angreifenden,
Then those that make raids at morn,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
die darin Staub aufwirbeln,
Then thereby raise dust,
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
die dann mitten in die Ansammlung eindringen!
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
Der Mensch ist seinem Herrn gegenüber wahrlich undankbar,
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
und er (selbst) ist darüber wahrlich Zeuge.
And most surely he is a witness of that.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
Und er ist in seiner Liebe zum (eigenen) Besten wahrlich heftig.
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
Weiß er denn nicht? Wenn durchwühlt wird, was in den Gräbern ist,
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
And that within the breasts is obtained,
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
und herausgeholt wird, was in den Brüsten ist,...
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
ihr Herr wird an jenem Tag ihrer wahrlich Kundig sein.
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
