Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the racers, panting,
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
Bei den schnaubend Rennenden,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
Then those that produce fire striking,
فالموريات قدحا
den (mit ihren Hufen) Funken Schlagenden,
And the chargers at dawn,
Then those that make raids at morn,
فالمغيرات صبحا
den am Morgen Angreifenden,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
Then thereby raise dust,
فأثرن به نقعا
die darin Staub aufwirbeln,
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
فوسطن به جمعا
die dann mitten in die Ansammlung eindringen!
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Der Mensch ist seinem Herrn gegenüber wahrlich undankbar,
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
And most surely he is a witness of that.
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
und er (selbst) ist darüber wahrlich Zeuge.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
Und er ist in seiner Liebe zum (eigenen) Besten wahrlich heftig.
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Weiß er denn nicht? Wenn durchwühlt wird, was in den Gräbern ist,
And that within the breasts is obtained,
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
وحصل ما في الصدور
und herausgeholt wird, was in den Brüsten ist,...
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
ihr Herr wird an jenem Tag ihrer wahrlich Kundig sein.
