Chapter 77, 50 verses
By those [winds] sent forth in gusts
I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit),
Bei den Entsandten, die wie eine Mähne aufeinanderfolgen,
وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًا
And the winds that blow violently
By the raging hurricanes,
den einen Sturm Entfesselnden
فَٱلْعَٰصِفَٰتِ عَصْفًا
And [by] the winds that spread [clouds]
Which scatter clouds to their destined places,
und den alles Ausbreitenden,
وَٱلنَّٰشِرَٰتِ نَشْرًا
And those [angels] who bring criterion
Then separate them one from another,
den klar Trennenden,
فَٱلْفَٰرِقَٰتِ فَرْقًا
And those [angels] who deliver a message
Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation,
den Ermahnung Überbringenden
فَٱلْمُلْقِيَٰتِ ذِكْرًا
As justification or warning,
To clear or to warn.
zur Pflichterfüllung oder zur Warnung!
عُذْرًا أَوْ نُذْرًا
Indeed, what you are promised is to occur.
Most surely what you are threatened with must come to pass.
Gewiß, was euch versprochen wird, wird sicher hereinbrechen.
إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَٰقِعٌ
So when the stars are obliterated
So when the stars are made to lose their light,
Wenn dann die Sterne ausgelöscht werden
فَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ طُمِسَتْ
And when the heaven is opened
And when the heaven is rent asunder,
und wenn der Himmel gespalten wird
وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ فُرِجَتْ
And when the mountains are blown away
And when the mountains are carried away as dust,
und wenn die Berge zersprengt werden
وَإِذَا ٱلْجِبَالُ نُسِفَتْ
And when the messengers' time has come...
And when the apostles are gathered at their appointed time
und wenn für die Gesandten ihre Zeit gesetzt wird.
وَإِذَا ٱلرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتْ
For what Day was it postponed?
To what day is the doom fixed?
Aufweichen Tag ist ihre Frist festgelegt worden?
لِأَىِّ يَوْمٍ أُجِّلَتْ
For the Day of Judgement.
To the day of decision.
Auf den Tag der Entscheidung.
لِيَوْمِ ٱلْفَصْلِ
And what can make you know what is the Day of Judgement?
And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was der Tag der Entscheidung ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Did We not destroy the former peoples?
Did We not destroy the former generations?
Haben Wir nicht die Früheren vernichtet?
أَلَمْ نُهْلِكِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Then We will follow them with the later ones.
Then did We follow them up with later ones.
Hierauf lassen Wir ihnen die Späteren folgen.
ثُمَّ نُتْبِعُهُمُ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ
Thus do We deal with the criminals.
Even thus shall We deal with the guilty.
So verfahren Wir mit den Übeltätern.
كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Did We not create you from a liquid disdained?
Did We not create you from contemptible water?
Haben Wir euch nicht aus verächtlichem Wasser erschaffen,
أَلَمْ نَخْلُقكُّم مِّن مَّآءٍ مَّهِينٍ
And We placed it in a firm lodging
Then We placed it in a secure resting - place,
das Wir dann in einem festen Aufenthaltsort haben sein lassen,
فَجَعَلْنَٰهُ فِى قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ
For a known extent.
Till an appointed term,
bis zu einem bekannten Zeitpunkt?
إِلَىٰ قَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ
And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine.
So We proportion it - - how well are We at proportioning (things).
So haben Wir bemessen. Welch trefflicher Bemesser sind Wir!
فَقَدَرْنَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْقَٰدِرُونَ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Have We not made the earth a container
Have We not made the earth to draw together to itself,
Haben Wir nicht die Erde zu einem Ort der Aufbewahrung gemacht
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ كِفَاتًا
Of the living and the dead?
The living and the dead,
- für die Lebenden und die Toten -
أَحْيَآءً وَأَمْوَٰتًا
And We placed therein lofty, firmly set mountains and have given you to drink sweet water.
And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water?
und auf ihr festgegründete, hoch aufragende Berge gemacht und euch frisches Wasser zu trinken gegeben?
وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ شَٰمِخَٰتٍ وَأَسْقَيْنَٰكُم مَّآءً فُرَاتًا
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
[They will be told], "Proceed to that which you used to deny.
Walk on to that which you called a lie.
- "Zieht los zu dem, was ihr stets für Lüge erklärt habt,
ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
Proceed to a shadow [of smoke] having three columns
Walk on to the covering having three branches,
zieht los zu einem Schatten mit drei Verzweigungen,
ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ ظِلٍّ ذِى ثَلَٰثِ شُعَبٍ
[But having] no cool shade and availing not against the flame."
Neither having the coolness of the shade nor availing against the flame.
der kein (wirklicher) Schattenspender ist und nicht (als Schutz) gegen die Flammen nützt."
لَّا ظَلِيلٍ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ
Indeed, it throws sparks [as huge] as a fortress,
Surely it sends up sparks like palaces,
Sie wirft mit Funken wie Schlösser,
إِنَّهَا تَرْمِى بِشَرَرٍ كَٱلْقَصْرِ
As if they were yellowish [black] camels.
As if they were tawny camels.
als wären sie gelbe Kamele.
كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَٰلَتٌ صُفْرٌ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
This is a Day they will not speak,
This is the day on which they shall not speak,
Das ist der Tag, an dem sie nicht reden werden
هَٰذَا يَوْمُ لَا يَنطِقُونَ
Nor will it be permitted for them to make an excuse.
And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses.
und (es) ihnen nicht erlaubt wird, daß sie sich entschuldigen.
وَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمْ فَيَعْتَذِرُونَ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
This is the Day of Judgement; We will have assembled you and the former peoples.
This is the day of decision: We have gathered you and those of yore.
- "Das ist der Tag der Entscheidung; Wir haben euch mit den Früheren versammelt.
هَٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ جَمَعْنَٰكُمْ وَٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
So if you have a plan, then plan against Me.
So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now).
Wenn ihr also eine List habt, so führt sie gegen Mich aus."
فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمْ كَيْدٌ فَكِيدُونِ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs
Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be amid shades and fountains,
Gewiß, die Gottesfürchtigen werden sich in Schatten und an Quellen befinden
إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى ظِلَٰلٍ وَعُيُونٍ
And fruits from whatever they desire,
And fruits such as they desire.
und bei Früchten von dem, was sie begehren.
وَفَوَٰكِهَ مِمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ
[Being told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do."
Eat and drink pleasantly because of what you did.
- "Eßt und trinkt als wohlbekömmlich für das, was ihr zu tun pflegtet."
كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
Surely thus do We reward the doers of good.
Gewiß, so vergelten Wir den Rechtschaffenen.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
[O disbelievers], eat and enjoy yourselves a little; indeed, you are criminals.
Eat and enjoy yourselves for a little; surely you are guilty.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
And when it is said to them, "Bow [in prayer]," they do not bow.
And where it is said to them: Bow down, they do not bow down.
Und wenn zu ihnen gesagt wird: "Verbeugt euch!", verbeugen sie sich nicht.
وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱرْكَعُوا۟ لَا يَرْكَعُونَ
Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
Woe on that day to the rejecters.
Wehe an jenem Tag den Leugnern!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Then in what statement after the Qur'an will they believe?
In what announcement, then, after it, will they believe?
An welche Aussage nach dieser wollen sie denn glauben?
فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَهُۥ يُؤْمِنُونَ
