By the clear Book,
I swear by the Book that makes things clear:
Bei dem deutlichen Buch!
وَٱلْكِتَٰبِ ٱلْمُبِينِ
Indeed, We have made it an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand.
Surely We have made it an Arabic Quran that you may understand.
Wir haben es ja zu einem arabischen Qur'an gemacht, auf daß ihr begreifen möget;
إِنَّا جَعَلْنَٰهُ قُرْءَٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ
And indeed it is, in the Mother of the Book with Us, exalted and full of wisdom.
And surely it is in the original of the Book with Us, truly elevated, full of wisdom.
und gewiß, er ist in der Urschrift des Buches bei Uns wahrlich erhaben und weise.
وَإِنَّهُۥ فِىٓ أُمِّ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ لَدَيْنَا لَعَلِىٌّ حَكِيمٌ
Then should We turn the message away, disregarding you, because you are a transgressing people?
What! shall We then turn away the reminder from you altogether because you are an extravagant people?
Sollen Wir denn euch bei der Ermahnung unbeachtet lassen, weil ihr maßlose Leute seid?
أَفَنَضْرِبُ عَنكُمُ ٱلذِّكْرَ صَفْحًا أَن كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا مُّسْرِفِينَ
And how many a prophet We sent among the former peoples,
And how many a prophet have We sent among the ancients.
Und wie viele Propheten haben Wir zu den früheren Geschlechtern gesandt!
وَكَمْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن نَّبِىٍّ فِى ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
But there would not come to them a prophet except that they used to ridicule him.
And there came not to them a prophet but they mocked at him.
Und kein Gesandter kam zu ihnen, ohne daß sie sich über ihn lustig gemacht hätten.
وَمَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن نَّبِىٍّ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ
And We destroyed greater than them in [striking] power, and the example of the former peoples has preceded.
Then We destroyed those who were stronger than these in prowess, and the case of the ancients has gone before,
So haben Wir solche vernichtet, die eine stärkere Gewalt hatten als diese. Und vollzogen hat sich das Beispiel an den Früheren.
فَأَهْلَكْنَآ أَشَدَّ مِنْهُم بَطْشًا وَمَضَىٰ مَثَلُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
And if you should ask them, "Who has created the heavens and the earth?" they would surely say, "They were created by the Exalted in Might, the Knowing."
And if you should ask them, Who created the heavens and the earth? they would most certainly say: The Mighty, the Knowing One, has created them;
Und wenn du sie fragst, wer die Himmel und die Erde erschaffen hat, sagen sie ganz gewiß: "Erschaffen hat sie der Allmächtige und Allwissende,"
وَلَئِن سَأَلْتَهُم مَّنْ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ خَلَقَهُنَّ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ
[The one] who has made for you the earth a bed and made for you upon it roads that you might be guided
He Who made the earth a resting - place for you, and made in it ways for you that you may go aright;
Der euch die Erde zu einer Lagerstatt gemacht und euch auf ihr Wege gemacht hat, auf daß ihr rechtgeleitet werden möget,
ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ مَهْدًا وَجَعَلَ لَكُمْ فِيهَا سُبُلًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ
And who sends down rain from the sky in measured amounts, and We revive thereby a dead land - thus will you be brought forth -
And He Who sends down water from the cloud according to a measure, then We raise to life thereby a dead country, even thus shall you be brought forth;
und Der Wasser vom Himmel in (bestimmtem) Maß herabkommen läßt. Damit lassen Wir (manch) totes Land auferstehen. So werdet auch ihr hervorgebracht werden -,
وَٱلَّذِى نَزَّلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۢ بِقَدَرٍ فَأَنشَرْنَا بِهِۦ بَلْدَةً مَّيْتًا كَذَٰلِكَ تُخْرَجُونَ
And who created the species, all of them, and has made for you of ships and animals those which you mount.
And He Who created pairs of all things, and made for you of the ships and the cattle what you ride on,
und Der die Paare alle erschaffen und euch an Schiffen und Vieh gemacht hat, was ihr besteigen könnt,
وَٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلْأَزْوَٰجَ كُلَّهَا وَجَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْفُلْكِ وَٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ مَا تَرْكَبُونَ
That you may settle yourselves upon their backs and then remember the favor of your Lord when you have settled upon them and say. "Exalted is He who has subjected this to us, and we could not have [otherwise] subdued it.
That you may firmly sit on their backs, then remember the favor of your Lord when you are firmly seated thereon, and say: Glory be to Him Who made this subservient to us and we were not able to do it
damit ihr euch auf ihren Rücken zurechtsetzt und hierauf der Gunst eures Herrn gedenkt, wenn ihr euch darauf zurechtgesetzt habt, und sagt: "Preis sei demjenigen, Der uns dies dienstbar gemacht hat! Wir wären hierzu ja nicht imstande gewesen.
لِتَسْتَوُۥا۟ عَلَىٰ ظُهُورِهِۦ ثُمَّ تَذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَةَ رَبِّكُمْ إِذَا ٱسْتَوَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ وَتَقُولُوا۟ سُبْحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِى سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَٰذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُۥ مُقْرِنِينَ
And indeed we, to our Lord, will [surely] return."
And surely to our Lord we must return.
Und wir werden ganz gewiß zu unserem Herrn zurückkehren."
وَإِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا لَمُنقَلِبُونَ
But they have attributed to Him from His servants a portion. Indeed, man is clearly ungrateful.
And they assign to Him a part of His servants; man, to be sure, is clearly ungrateful.
Und sie stellen Ihm einen Teil von Seinen Dienern (als Seinesgleichen zur Seite). Der Mensch ist ja offenkundig sehr undankbar.
وَجَعَلُوا۟ لَهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ جُزْءًا إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لَكَفُورٌ مُّبِينٌ
Or has He taken, out of what He has created, daughters and chosen you for [having] sons?
What! has He taken daughters to Himself of what He Himself creates and chosen you to have sons?
Oder hat Er sich etwa unter Seinen Geschöpfen Töchter genommen und für euch die Söhne erwählt?
أَمِ ٱتَّخَذَ مِمَّا يَخْلُقُ بَنَاتٍ وَأَصْفَىٰكُم بِٱلْبَنِينَ
And when one of them is given good tidings of that which he attributes to the Most Merciful in comparison, his face becomes dark, and he suppresses grief.
And when one of them is given news of that of which he sets up as a likeness for the Beneficent Allah, his face becomes black and he is full of rage.
Wenn einem von ihnen die frohe Botschaft (von der Geburt) dessen verkündet wird, was er dem Allerbarmer zum Gleichnis zuschreibt, bleibt sein Gesicht finster, und er hält (seinen Grimm) zurück.
وَإِذَا بُشِّرَ أَحَدُهُم بِمَا ضَرَبَ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ مَثَلًا ظَلَّ وَجْهُهُۥ مُسْوَدًّا وَهُوَ كَظِيمٌ
So is one brought up in ornaments while being during conflict unevident [attributed to Allah]?
What! that which is made in ornaments and which in contention is unable to make plain speech!
(Wollen sie Allah) denn jemanden (zuschreiben), der im Schmuck aufgezogen wird und im Streit nicht deutlich wird?
أَوَمَن يُنَشَّؤُا۟ فِى ٱلْحِلْيَةِ وَهُوَ فِى ٱلْخِصَامِ غَيْرُ مُبِينٍ
And they have made the angels, who are servants of the Most Merciful, females. Did they witness their creation? Their testimony will be recorded, and they will be questioned.
And they make the angels - - them who are the servants of the Beneficent Allah - - female (divinities). What! did they witness their creation? Their evidence shall be written down and they shall be questioned.
Und sie machen die Engel, die sie ja Diener des Allerbarmers sind, zu weiblichen Wesen. Waren sie denn Zeugen ihrer Erschaffung? Ihr Zeugnis wird aufgeschrieben, und sie werden befragt werden.
وَجَعَلُوا۟ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عِبَٰدُ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ إِنَٰثًا أَشَهِدُوا۟ خَلْقَهُمْ سَتُكْتَبُ شَهَٰدَتُهُمْ وَيُسْـَٔلُونَ
And they said, "If the Most Merciful had willed, we would not have worshipped them." They have of that no knowledge. They are not but falsifying.
And they say: If the Beneficent Allah had pleased, we should never have worshipped them. They have no knowledge of this; they only lie.
Und sie sagen: "Wenn der Allerbarmer gewollt hätte, hätten wir ihnen nicht gedient." Sie haben kein Wissen davon; sie stellen nur Schätzungen an.
وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْ شَآءَ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ مَا عَبَدْنَٰهُم مَّا لَهُم بِذَٰلِكَ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا يَخْرُصُونَ
Or have We given them a book before the Qur'an to which they are adhering?
Or have We given them a book before it so that they hold fast to it?
Oder haben Wir ihnen etwa vor ihm eine Schrift gegeben, an der sie sich festhalten könnten?
أَمْ ءَاتَيْنَٰهُمْ كِتَٰبًا مِّن قَبْلِهِۦ فَهُم بِهِۦ مُسْتَمْسِكُونَ
Rather, they say, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are in their footsteps [rightly] guided."
Nay! they say: We found our fathers on a course, and surely we are guided by their footsteps.
Nein! Vielmehr sagen sie: "Wir haben ja (bereits) unsere Väter in einer (bestimmten) Glaubensrichtung vorgefunden, und auf ihren Spuren sind wir rechtgeleitet."
بَلْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا وَجَدْنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا عَلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٍ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم مُّهْتَدُونَ
And similarly, We did not send before you any warner into a city except that its affluent said, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are, in their footsteps, following."
And thus, We did not send before you any warner in a town, but those who led easy lives in it said: Surely we found our fathers on a course, and surely we are followers of their footsteps.
So haben Wir (auch) vor dir in eine Stadt keinen Warner gesandt, ohne daß diejenigen, die in ihr üppig lebten, gesagt hätten: "Wir haben ja (bereits) unsere Väter in einer bestimmten Glaubensrichtung vorgefunden, und auf ihren Spuren folgen wir ihrem Vorbild."
وَكَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ فِى قَرْيَةٍ مِّن نَّذِيرٍ إِلَّا قَالَ مُتْرَفُوهَآ إِنَّا وَجَدْنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا عَلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٍ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم مُّقْتَدُونَ
[Each warner] said, "Even if I brought you better guidance than that [religion] upon which you found your fathers?" They said, "Indeed we, in that with which you were sent, are disbelievers."
(The warner) said: What! even if I bring to you a better guide than that on which you found your fathers? They said: Surely we are unbelievers in that with which you are sent.
Er sagte: "Etwa auch, wenn ich euch bringe, was eine bessere Rechtleitung enthält als das, worin ihr eure Väter vorgefunden habt?" Sie sagten: "Wir verleugnen ja das, womit ihr gesandt worden seid."
قَٰلَ أَوَلَوْ جِئْتُكُم بِأَهْدَىٰ مِمَّا وَجَدتُّمْ عَلَيْهِ ءَابَآءَكُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا بِمَآ أُرْسِلْتُم بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ
So we took retribution from them; then see how was the end of the deniers.
So We inflicted retribution on them, then see how was the end of the rejecters.
Da übten Wir an ihnen Vergeltung. So schau, wie das Ende der Leugner war.
فَٱنتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
And [mention, O Muhammad], when Abraham said to his father and his people, "Indeed, I am disassociated from that which you worship
And when Ibrahim said to his father and his people: Surely I am clear of what you worship,
Und als Ibrahim zu seinem Vater und seinem Volk sagte: "Gewiß, ich sage mich los von dem, dem ihr dient,
وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَٰهِيمُ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِۦٓ إِنَّنِى بَرَآءٌ مِّمَّا تَعْبُدُونَ
Except for He who created me; and indeed, He will guide me."
Save Him Who created me, for surely He will guide me.
außer Demjenigen, Der mich erschaffen hat; denn Er wird mich gewiß rechtleiten."
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِى فَطَرَنِى فَإِنَّهُۥ سَيَهْدِينِ
And he made it a word remaining among his descendants that they might return [to it].
And he made it a word to continue in his posterity that they may return.
Und er machte es zu einem bleibenden Wort unter seinen Nachkommen, auf daß sie umkehren mögen.
وَجَعَلَهَا كَلِمَةًۢ بَاقِيَةً فِى عَقِبِهِۦ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ
However, I gave enjoyment to these [people of Makkah] and their fathers until there came to them the truth and a clear Messenger.
Nay! I gave them and their fathers to enjoy until there came to them the truth and an Apostle making manifest (the truth).
Aber nein! Ich habe diese da und ihre Väter genießen lassen, bis die Wahrheit und ein deutlicher Gesandter zu ihnen gekommen ist.
بَلْ مَتَّعْتُ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَءَابَآءَهُمْ حَتَّىٰ جَآءَهُمُ ٱلْحَقُّ وَرَسُولٌ مُّبِينٌ
But when the truth came to them, they said, "This is magic, and indeed we are, concerning it, disbelievers."
And when there came to them the truth they said: This is magic, and surely we are disbelievers in it.
Als nun die Wahrheit zu ihnen gekommen ist, sagen sie: "Das ist Zauberei, und wir verleugnen ihn."
وَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمُ ٱلْحَقُّ قَالُوا۟ هَٰذَا سِحْرٌ وَإِنَّا بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ
And they said, "Why was this Qur'an not sent down upon a great man from [one of] the two cities?"
And they say: Why was not this Quran revealed to a man of importance in the two towns?
Und sie sagen: "Wäre doch dieser Qur'an einem bedeutenden Mann aus den beiden Städten offenbart worden!"
وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْلَا نُزِّلَ هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانُ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٍ مِّنَ ٱلْقَرْيَتَيْنِ عَظِيمٍ
Do they distribute the mercy of your Lord? It is We who have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of this world and have raised some of them above others in degrees [of rank] that they may make use of one another for service. But the mercy of your Lord is better than whatever they accumulate.
Will they distribute the mercy of your Lord? We distribute among them their livelihood in the life of this world, and We j have exalted some of them above others in degrees, that some of them may take others in subjection; and the mercy of your Lord is better than what they amass.
Verteilen etwa sie die Barmherzigkeit deines Herrn? Wir verteilen doch unter ihnen ihren Lebensunterhalt im diesseitigen Leben und erhöhen die einen von ihnen über die anderen um Rangstufen, damit die einen von ihnen die anderen in Dienst nehmen. Aber die Barmherzigkeit deines Herrn ist besser als das, was sie zusammentragen.
أَهُمْ يَقْسِمُونَ رَحْمَتَ رَبِّكَ نَحْنُ قَسَمْنَا بَيْنَهُم مَّعِيشَتَهُمْ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَرَفَعْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ فَوْقَ بَعْضٍ دَرَجَٰتٍ لِّيَتَّخِذَ بَعْضُهُم بَعْضًا سُخْرِيًّا وَرَحْمَتُ رَبِّكَ
And if it were not that the people would become one community [of disbelievers], We would have made for those who disbelieve in the Most Merciful - for their houses - ceilings and stairways of silver upon which to mount
And were it not that all people had been a single nation, We would certainly have assigned to those who disbelieve in the Beneficent Allah (to make) of silver the roofs of their houses and the stairs by which they ascend.
Und damit die Menschen nicht eine einzige Gemeinschaft werden (, sahen Wir davon ab, sonst), hätten Wir wahrlich denjenigen, die den Allerbarmer verleugnen, für ihre Häuser Decken aus Silber gemacht und (auch) Treppen, auf denen sie hätten hochsteigen können,
وَلَوْلَآ أَن يَكُونَ ٱلنَّاسُ أُمَّةً وَٰحِدَةً لَّجَعَلْنَا لِمَن يَكْفُرُ بِٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ لِبُيُوتِهِمْ سُقُفًا مِّن فِضَّةٍ وَمَعَارِجَ عَلَيْهَا يَظْهَرُونَ
And for their houses - doors and couches [of silver] upon which to recline
And the doors of their houses and the couches on which they recline,
und Türen für ihre Häuser, und Liegen, auf denen sie sich lehnen können,
وَلِبُيُوتِهِمْ أَبْوَٰبًا وَسُرُرًا عَلَيْهَا يَتَّكِـُٔونَ
And gold ornament. But all that is not but the enjoyment of worldly life. And the Hereafter with your Lord is for the righteous.
And (other) embellishments of gold; and all this is naught but provision of this world's life, and the hereafter is with your Lord only for those who guard (against evil).
und (weitere) Zierde. All das ist aber nur Nießbrauch des diesseitigen Lebens. Das Jenseits bei deinem Herrn ist jedoch für die Gottesfürchtigen (bestimmt).
وَزُخْرُفًا وَإِن كُلُّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمَّا مَتَٰعُ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْءَاخِرَةُ عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
And whoever is blinded from remembrance of the Most Merciful - We appoint for him a devil, and he is to him a companion.
And whoever turns himself away from the remembrance of the Beneficent Allah, We appoint for him a Shaitan, so he becomes his associate.
Wer für die Ermahnung des Allerbarmers blind ist, dem verschaffen Wir einen Satan, der ihm dann zum Gesellen wird.
وَمَن يَعْشُ عَن ذِكْرِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ نُقَيِّضْ لَهُۥ شَيْطَٰنًا فَهُوَ لَهُۥ قَرِينٌ
And indeed, the devils avert them from the way [of guidance] while they think that they are [rightly] guided
And most surely they turn them away from the path, and they think that they are guided aright:
Und sie halten sie wahrlich vom Weg ab, und diese meinen, sie seien rechtgeleitet.
وَإِنَّهُمْ لَيَصُدُّونَهُمْ عَنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُم مُّهْتَدُونَ
Until, when he comes to Us [at Judgement], he says [to his companion], "Oh, I wish there was between me and you the distance between the east and west - how wretched a companion."
Until when he comes to Us, he says: O would that between me and you there were the distance of the East and the West; so evil is the associate!
Wenn er dann (schließlich) zu Uns kommt, sagt er: "O wäre doch zwischen mir und dir eine Entfernung wie zwischen Osten und Westen !" - ein schlimmer Geselle!
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَنَا قَالَ يَٰلَيْتَ بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَكَ بُعْدَ ٱلْمَشْرِقَيْنِ فَبِئْسَ ٱلْقَرِينُ
And never will it benefit you that Day, when you have wronged, that you are [all] sharing in the punishment.
And since you were unjust, it will not profit you this day that you are sharers in the chastisement.
Heute wird euch, da ihr Unrecht getan habt, nicht nützen, daß ihr an demselben) Strafe teilhabt.
وَلَن يَنفَعَكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِذ ظَّلَمْتُمْ أَنَّكُمْ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ
Then will you make the deaf hear, [O Muhammad], or guide the blind or he who is in clear error?
What! can you then make the deaf to hear or guide the blind and him who is in clear error?
Bist du es etwa, der die Tauben hören läßt oder die Blinden und diejenigen recht leitet, die sich in deutlichem Irrtum befinden?
أَفَأَنتَ تُسْمِعُ ٱلصُّمَّ أَوْ تَهْدِى ٱلْعُمْىَ وَمَن كَانَ فِى ضَلَٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ
And whether [or not] We take you away [in death], indeed, We will take retribution upon them.
But if We should take you away, still We shall inflict retribution on them;
Sollten Wir dich (vorher) fortnehmen, so werden Wir (doch) an ihnen Vergeltung üben.
فَإِمَّا نَذْهَبَنَّ بِكَ فَإِنَّا مِنْهُم مُّنتَقِمُونَ
Or whether [or not] We show you that which We have promised them, indeed, We are Perfect in Ability.
Rather We will certainly show you that which We have promised them; for surely We are the possessors of full power over them.
Oder Wir zeigen dir, was Wir ihnen angedroht haben; so haben Wir ja ganz die Macht über sie.
أَوْ نُرِيَنَّكَ ٱلَّذِى وَعَدْنَٰهُمْ فَإِنَّا عَلَيْهِم مُّقْتَدِرُونَ
So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path.
Therefore hold fast to that which has been revealed to you; surely you are on the right path.
Halte also fest an dem, was dir (als Offenbarung) eingegeben worden ist; gewiß, du befindest dich auf einem geraden Weg.
فَٱسْتَمْسِكْ بِٱلَّذِىٓ أُوحِىَ إِلَيْكَ إِنَّكَ عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ
And indeed, it is a remembrance for you and your people, and you [all] are going to be questioned.
And most surely it is a reminder for you and your people, and you shall soon be questioned.
Das ist wahrlich eine Ermahnung für dich und dein Volk. Und ihr werdet befragt werden.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَذِكْرٌ لَّكَ وَلِقَوْمِكَ وَسَوْفَ تُسْـَٔلُونَ
And ask those We sent before you of Our messengers; have We made besides the Most Merciful deities to be worshipped?
And ask those of Our apostles whom We sent before you: Did We ever appoint gods to be worshipped besides the Beneficent Allah?
Und frage wen von Unseren Gesandten Wir vor dir gesandt haben, ob Wir anstatt des Allerbarmers (andere) Götter eingesetzt haben, denen man dienen soll.
وَسْـَٔلْ مَنْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ مِن رُّسُلِنَآ أَجَعَلْنَا مِن دُونِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ءَالِهَةً يُعْبَدُونَ
And certainly did We send Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his establishment, and he said, "Indeed, I am the messenger of the Lord of the worlds."
And certainly We sent Musa with Our communications to Firon and his chiefs, so he said: Surely I am the apostle of the Lord of the worlds.
Und Wir sandten bereits Musa mit Unseren Zeichen zu Fir'aun und seiner führenden Schar. Er sagte: "Gewiß, ich bin der Gesandte des Herrn der Weltenbewohner."
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مُوسَىٰ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَإِي۟هِۦ فَقَالَ إِنِّى رَسُولُ رَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
But when he brought them Our signs, at once they laughed at them.
But when he came to them with Our signs, lo! they laughed at them.
Als er nun zu ihnen mit Unseren Zeichen kam, lachten sie sogleich über sie.
فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُم بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ إِذَا هُم مِّنْهَا يَضْحَكُونَ
And We showed them not a sign except that it was greater than its sister, and We seized them with affliction that perhaps they might return [to faith].
And We did not show them a sign but it was greater than its like, and We overtook them with chastisement that they may turn.
Und Wir zeigten ihnen kein Zeichen, das nicht größer gewesen wäre als das vorhergehende. Und Wir ergriffen sie mit der Strafe, auf daß sie umkehren mochten.
وَمَا نُرِيهِم مِّنْ ءَايَةٍ إِلَّا هِىَ أَكْبَرُ مِنْ أُخْتِهَا وَأَخَذْنَٰهُم بِٱلْعَذَابِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ
And they said [to Moses], "O magician, invoke for us your Lord by what He has promised you. Indeed, we will be guided."
And they said: O magician! call on your Lord for our sake, as He has made the covenant with you; we shall surely be the followers of the right way.
Und sie sagten: "O du Zauberer, rufe für uns deinen Herrn an auf Grund dessen, was Er dir anvertraut hat, dann werden wir uns wahrlich rechtleiten lassen."
وَقَالُوا۟ يَٰٓأَيُّهَ ٱلسَّاحِرُ ٱدْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ بِمَا عَهِدَ عِندَكَ إِنَّنَا لَمُهْتَدُونَ
But when We removed from them the affliction, at once they broke their word.
But when We removed from them the chastisement, lo! they broke the pledge.
Als Wir dann die Strafe von ihnen hinwegnahmen, da brachen sie sogleich ihr Wort.
فَلَمَّا كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابَ إِذَا هُمْ يَنكُثُونَ
And Pharaoh called out among his people; he said, "O my people, does not the kingdom of Egypt belong to me, and these rivers flowing beneath me; then do you not see?
And Firon proclaimed amongst his people: O my people! is not the kingdom of Egypt mine? And these rivers flow beneath me; do you not then see?
Und Fir'aun ließ unter seinem Volk ausrufen; er sagte: "O mein Volk, gehört mir nicht die Herrschaft über Ägypten und (auch) diese Flüsse, die unter mir strömen? Wollt ihr denn nicht einsichtig sein?
وَنَادَىٰ فِرْعَوْنُ فِى قَوْمِهِۦ قَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ أَلَيْسَ لِى مُلْكُ مِصْرَ وَهَٰذِهِ ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِىٓ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ
Or am I [not] better than this one who is insignificant and hardly makes himself clear?
Nay! I am better than this fellow, who is contemptible, and who can hardly speak distinctly:
Oder bin ich nicht besser als dieser, der verächtlich ist und sich kaum deutlich äußern kann?
أَمْ أَنَا۠ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى هُوَ مَهِينٌ وَلَا يَكَادُ يُبِينُ
Then why have there not been placed upon him bracelets of gold or come with him the angels in conjunction?"
But why have not bracelets of gold been put upon him, or why have there not come with him angels as companions?
Würden doch Armringe aus Gold auf ihn herabgeworfen oder die Engel mit ihm als Begleitung kommen!"
فَلَوْلَآ أُلْقِىَ عَلَيْهِ أَسْوِرَةٌ مِّن ذَهَبٍ أَوْ جَآءَ مَعَهُ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ مُقْتَرِنِينَ
So he bluffed his people, and they obeyed him. Indeed, they were [themselves] a people defiantly disobedient [of Allah].
So he incited his people to levity and they obeyed him: surely they were a transgressing people.
Er fand sein Volk leicht (zu beeinflussen), und da gehorchten sie ihm. Gewiß, sie waren ein Volk von Frevlern.
فَٱسْتَخَفَّ قَوْمَهُۥ فَأَطَاعُوهُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا فَٰسِقِينَ
And when they angered Us, We took retribution from them and drowned them all.
Then when they displeased Us, We inflicted a retribution on them, so We drowned them all together,
Als sie Uns Kummer bereiteten, übten Wir an ihnen Vergeltung, und so ließen Wir sie allesamt ertrinken.
فَلَمَّآ ءَاسَفُونَا ٱنتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ فَأَغْرَقْنَٰهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
And We made them a precedent and an example for the later peoples.
And We made them a precedent and example to the later generations.
Wir machten sie zu Vorgängern und zu einem Beispiel für die späteren (Geschlechter).
فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ سَلَفًا وَمَثَلًا لِّلْءَاخِرِينَ
And when the son of Mary was presented as an example, immediately your people laughed aloud.
And when a description of the son of Marium is given, lo! your people raise a clamor thereat.
Und als der Sohn Maryams als Beispiel angeführt wurde, da brach dein Volk sogleich in Geschrei aus.
وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ مَثَلًا إِذَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْهُ يَصِدُّونَ
And they said, "Are your gods better, or is he?" They did not present the comparison except for [mere] argument. But, [in fact], they are a people prone to dispute.
And they say: Are our gods better, or is he? They do not set it forth to you save by way of disputation; nay, they are a contentious people.
Und sie sagten: "Sind unsere Götter besser oder er?" Sie führten ihn dir nur zum Streiten an. Nein! Vielmehr sind sie streitsüchtige Leute.
وَقَالُوٓا۟ ءَأَٰلِهَتُنَا خَيْرٌ أَمْ هُوَ مَا ضَرَبُوهُ لَكَ إِلَّا جَدَلًۢا بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ خَصِمُونَ
Jesus was not but a servant upon whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the Children of Israel.
He was naught but a servant on whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the children of Israel.
Er ist nur ein Diener, dem Wir Gunst erwiesen und den Wir zu einem Beispiel für die Kinder Isra'ils gemacht haben.
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا عَبْدٌ أَنْعَمْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَجَعَلْنَٰهُ مَثَلًا لِّبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ
And if We willed, We could have made [instead] of you angels succeeding [one another] on the earth.
And if We please, We could make among you angels to be successors in the land.
Und wenn Wir wollten, könnten Wir euch wahrlich zu Engeln machen, die zu Statthaltern auf der Erde würden.
وَلَوْ نَشَآءُ لَجَعَلْنَا مِنكُم مَّلَٰٓئِكَةً فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ يَخْلُفُونَ
And indeed, Jesus will be [a sign for] knowledge of the Hour, so be not in doubt of it, and follow Me. This is a straight path.
And most surely it is a knowledge of the hour, therefore have no doubt about it and follow me: this is the right path.
Und er ist wahrlich Wissen von der Stunde (des Gerichts)'. So hegt ja keinen Zweifel an ihr und folgt mir. Das ist ein gerader Weg.
وَإِنَّهُۥ لَعِلْمٌ لِّلسَّاعَةِ فَلَا تَمْتَرُنَّ بِهَا وَٱتَّبِعُونِ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٌ مُّسْتَقِيمٌ
And never let Satan avert you. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.
And let not the Shaitan prevent you; surely he is your j open enemy.
Und der Satan soll euch ja nicht abhalten. Gewiß, er ist euch ein deutlicher Feind.
وَلَا يَصُدَّنَّكُمُ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ
And when Jesus brought clear proofs, he said, "I have come to you with wisdom and to make clear to you some of that over which you differ, so fear Allah and obey me.
And when Isa came with clear arguments he said: I have come to you indeed with wisdom, and that I may make clear to you part of what you differ in; so be careful of (your duty to) Allah and obey me:
Und als 'Isa mit den klaren Beweisen kam, sagte er: "Ich komme ja zu euch mit der Weisheit, und um euch einiges von dem klarzumachen, worüber ihr uneinig seid. So fürchtet Allah und gehorcht mir.
وَلَمَّا جَآءَ عِيسَىٰ بِٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ قَالَ قَدْ جِئْتُكُم بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ وَلِأُبَيِّنَ لَكُم بَعْضَ ٱلَّذِى تَخْتَلِفُونَ فِيهِ فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ
Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. This is a straight path."
Surely Allah is my Lord and your Lord, therefore serve Him; this is the right path:
Gewiß, Allah ist ja mein Herr und euer Herr; so dient Ihm. Das ist ein gerader Weg."
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ رَبِّى وَرَبُّكُمْ فَٱعْبُدُوهُ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٌ مُّسْتَقِيمٌ
But the denominations from among them differed [and separated], so woe to those who have wronged from the punishment of a painful Day.
But parties from among them differed, so woe to those who were unjust because of the chastisement of a painful day.
Doch wurden die Gruppierungen untereinander uneinig; so wehe denjenigen, die Unrecht tun, vor der Strafe eines schmerzhaften Tages!
فَٱخْتَلَفَ ٱلْأَحْزَابُ مِنۢ بَيْنِهِمْ فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ مِنْ عَذَابِ يَوْمٍ أَلِيمٍ
Are they waiting except for the Hour to come upon them suddenly while they perceive not?
Do they wait for aught but the hour, that it should come! upon them all of a sudden while they do not perceive?
Erwarten sie nur die Stunde, daß sie plötzlich über sie kommt, ohne daß sie merken?
هَلْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا ٱلسَّاعَةَ أَن تَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ
Close friends, that Day, will be enemies to each other, except for the righteous
The friends shall on that day be enemies one to another, except those who guard (against evil).
Die Freunde werden an jenem Tag einer des anderen Feind sein, außer den Gottesfürchtigen.
ٱلْأَخِلَّآءُ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّ إِلَّا ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ
[To whom Allah will say], "O My servants, no fear will there be concerning you this Day, nor will you grieve,
O My servants! there is no fear for you this day, nor shall you grieve.
"O meine Diener, keine Furcht soll heute über euch kommen, noch sollt ihr traurig sein,
يَٰعِبَادِ لَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ وَلَآ أَنتُمْ تَحْزَنُونَ
[You] who believed in Our verses and were Muslims.
Those who believed in Our communications and were submissive:
(ihr,) die ihr an Unsere Zeichen glaubtet und (Allah) ergeben wart.
ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا وَكَانُوا۟ مُسْلِمِينَ
Enter Paradise, you and your kinds, delighted."
Enter the garden, you and your wives; you shall be made happy.
Geht in den (Paradies)garten ein, euch und euren Gattinnen wird Freude bereitet."
ٱدْخُلُوا۟ ٱلْجَنَّةَ أَنتُمْ وَأَزْوَٰجُكُمْ تُحْبَرُونَ
Circulated among them will be plates and vessels of gold. And therein is whatever the souls desire and [what] delights the eyes, and you will abide therein eternally.
There shall be sent round to them golden bowls and drinking - cups and therein shall be what their souls yearn after and (wherein) the eyes shall delight, and you shall abide therein.
Es werden ihnen Schüsseln aus Gold und Trinkschalen herumgereicht; darin gibt es, was die Seelen begehren und köstlich für die Augen ist. "Und ewig werdet ihr darin bleiben.
يُطَافُ عَلَيْهِم بِصِحَافٍ مِّن ذَهَبٍ وَأَكْوَابٍ وَفِيهَا مَا تَشْتَهِيهِ ٱلْأَنفُسُ وَتَلَذُّ ٱلْأَعْيُنُ وَأَنتُمْ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ
And that is Paradise which you are made to inherit for what you used to do.
And this is the garden which you are given as an inheritance on account of what you did.
Das ist der (Paradies)garten, der euch zum Erbe gegeben worden ist für das, was ihr zu tun pflegtet.
وَتِلْكَ ٱلْجَنَّةُ ٱلَّتِىٓ أُورِثْتُمُوهَا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
For you therein is much fruit from which you will eat.
For you therein are many fruits of which you shall eat.
Darin habt ihr vielerlei Früchte, von denen ihr eßt."
لَكُمْ فِيهَا فَٰكِهَةٌ كَثِيرَةٌ مِّنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَ
Indeed, the criminals will be in the punishment of Hell, abiding eternally.
Surely the guilty shall abide in the chastisement of hell.
Gewiß, die Übeltäter (hingegen) werden in der Strafe der Hölle ewig bleiben.
إِنَّ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ فِى عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدُونَ
It will not be allowed to subside for them, and they, therein, are in despair.
It shall not be abated from them and they shall therein be despairing.
Sie wird ihnen nicht herabgesetzt, und sie werden darin ganz verzweifelt sein.
لَا يُفَتَّرُ عَنْهُمْ وَهُمْ فِيهِ مُبْلِسُونَ
And We did not wrong them, but it was they who were the wrongdoers.
And We are not unjust to them, but they themselves were unjust.
Nicht Wir haben ihnen Unrecht getan, sondern sie sind es, die Unrecht getan haben.
وَمَا ظَلَمْنَٰهُمْ وَلَٰكِن كَانُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
And they will call, "O Malik, let your Lord put an end to us!" He will say, "Indeed, you will remain."
And they shall call out: O Malik! let your Lord make an end of us. He shall say: Surely you shall tarry.
Und sie rufen: "O Malik, dein Herr soll unserem Leben ein Ende setzen." Er sagt: "Gewiß, ihr werdet (hier) bleiben."
وَنَادَوْا۟ يَٰمَٰلِكُ لِيَقْضِ عَلَيْنَا رَبُّكَ قَالَ إِنَّكُم مَّٰكِثُونَ
We had certainly brought you the truth, but most of you, to the truth, were averse.
Certainly We have brought you the truth, but most of you are averse to the truth.
Wir sind zu euch mit der Wahrheit gekommen, aber den meisten von euch ist die Wahrheit zuwider.
لَقَدْ جِئْنَٰكُم بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَكُمْ لِلْحَقِّ كَٰرِهُونَ
Or have they devised [some] affair? But indeed, We are devising [a plan].
Or have they settled an affair? Then surely We are the settlers.
Oder haben sie sich eine Sache ausgedacht? Auch Wir können Uns (etwas) ausdenken.
أَمْ أَبْرَمُوٓا۟ أَمْرًا فَإِنَّا مُبْرِمُونَ
Or do they think that We hear not their secrets and their private conversations? Yes, [We do], and Our messengers are with them recording.

أَمْ يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّا لَا نَسْمَعُ سِرَّهُمْ وَنَجْوَىٰهُم بَلَىٰ وَرُسُلُنَا لَدَيْهِمْ يَكْتُبُونَ
Say, [O Muhammad], "If the Most Merciful had a son, then I would be the first of [his] worshippers."
Say: If the Beneficent Allah has a son, I am the foremost of those who serve.
Sag: Wenn der Allerbarmer Kinder hätte, wäre ich der erste derjenigen, die (ihnen) dienen.
قُلْ إِن كَانَ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ وَلَدٌ فَأَنَا۠ أَوَّلُ ٱلْعَٰبِدِينَ
Exalted is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, Lord of the Throne, above what they describe.
Glory to the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the Lord of power, from what they describe.
Preis sei dem Herrn der Himmel und der Erde, dem Herrn des Thrones! (Erhaben ist Er) über das, was sie (Ihm) zuschreiben.
سُبْحَٰنَ رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَرْشِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ
So leave them to converse vainly and amuse themselves until they meet their Day which they are promised.
So leave them plunging into false discourses and sporting until they meet their day which they are threatened with.
So lasse sie schweifende Gespräche führen und ihr Spiel treiben, bis sie ihrem Tag begegnen, der ihnen angedroht ist.
فَذَرْهُمْ يَخُوضُوا۟ وَيَلْعَبُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ يُلَٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ
And it is Allah who is [the only] deity in the heaven, and on the earth [the only] deity. And He is the Wise, the Knowing.
And He it is Who is Allah in the heavens and Allah in the earth; and He is the Wise, the Knowing.
Er ist es, Der im Himmel Gott und auf der Erde Gott ist; Er ist der Allweise und Allwissende.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ إِلَٰهٌ وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَٰهٌ وَهُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ
And blessed is He to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them and with whom is knowledge of the Hour and to whom you will be returned.
And blessed is He Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, and with Him is the knowledge of the hour, and to Him shall you be brought back.
Und Segensreich ist Derjenige, Dem die Herrschaft der Himmel und der Erde und dessen, was dazwischen ist, gehört, Der das Wissen über die Stunde besitzt und zu Dem ihr zurückgebracht werdet!
وَتَبَارَكَ ٱلَّذِى لَهُۥ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَعِندَهُۥ عِلْمُ ٱلسَّاعَةِ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ
And those they invoke besides Him do not possess [power of] intercession; but only those who testify to the truth [can benefit], and they know.
And those whom they call upon besides Him have no authority for intercession, but he who bears witness of the truth and they know (him).
Und diejenigen, die sie anstatt Seiner anrufen, verfügen nicht über die Fürsprache, außer wer der Wahrheit entsprechend bezeugt, und sie wissen (es).
وَلَا يَمْلِكُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِهِ ٱلشَّفَٰعَةَ إِلَّا مَن شَهِدَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ
And if you asked them who created them, they would surely say, "Allah." So how are they deluded?
And if you should ask them who created them, they would certainly say: Allah. Whence are they then turned back?
Wenn du sie fragst, wer sie erschaffen hat, sagen sie ganz gewiß: "Allah". Wie lassen sie sich also abwendig machen?
وَلَئِن سَأَلْتَهُم مَّنْ خَلَقَهُمْ لَيَقُولُنَّ ٱللَّهُ فَأَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ
And [Allah acknowledges] his saying, "O my Lord, indeed these are a people who do not believe."
Consider his cry: O my Lord! surely they are a people who do not believe.
Und bei seinem Ausspruch: "O mein Herr, gewiß, das sind Leute, die nicht glauben."
وَقِيلِهِۦ يَٰرَبِّ إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوْمٌ لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ
So turn aside from them and say, "Peace." But they are going to know.
So turn away from them and say, Peace, for they shall soon come to know.
Übe Nachsicht mit ihnen und sag: "Friede!" Sie werden (es noch) erfahren.
فَٱصْفَحْ عَنْهُمْ وَقُلْ سَلَٰمٌ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
