Chapter 87, 19 verses
Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,
Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High,
Preise den Namen deines höchsten Herrn,
سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى
Who created and proportioned
Who creates, then makes complete,
Der erschafft und dann zurechtformt
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ
And who destined and [then] guided
And Who makes (things) according to a measure, then guides (them to their goal),
und Der das Maß festsetzt und dann rechtleitet
وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ
And who brings out the pasture
And Who brings forth herbage,
und Der die Weide hervorbringt
وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ
And [then] makes it black stubble.
Then makes it dried up, dust - colored.
und sie dann zu dunkelbrauner Spreu macht.
فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ
We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget,
We will make you recite so you shall not forget,
Wir werden dich lesen lassen, und dann wirst du nichts vergessen,
سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ
Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden.
Except what Allah pleases, surely He knows the manifest, and what is hidden.
außer dem, was Allah will. Er weiß ja, was laut vernehmbar geäußert wird und was verborgen bleibt.
إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ
And We will ease you toward ease.
And We will make your way smooth to a state of ease.
Und Wir werden dir den Weg zum Leichteren leicht machen.
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
So remind, if the reminder should benefit;
Therefore do remind, surely reminding does profit.
So ermahne -, wenn die Ermahnung nützt.
فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ
He who fears [Allah] will be reminded.
He who fears will mind,
Bedenken wird jemand, der gottesfürchtig ist.
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ
But the wretched one will avoid it -
And the most unfortunate one will avoid it,
Meiden aber wird es der Unseligste,
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى
[He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire,
Who shall enter the great fire;
der dem größten (Höllen)feuer ausgesetzt sein wird;
ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ
Neither dying therein nor living.
Then therein he shall neither live nor die.
darin wird er hierauf weder sterben noch leben.
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ
He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself
He indeed shall be who purifies himself,
Wohl ergehen wird es ja jemandem, der sich läutert,
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ
And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.
And magnifies the name of his Lord and prays.
und des Namens seines Herrn gedenkt; so betet er.
وَذَكَرَ ٱسْمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ
But you prefer the worldly life,
Nay! you prefer the life of this world,
Nein! Vielmehr zieht ihr das diesseitige Leben vor,
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا
While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
While the hereafter is better and more lasting.
während das Jenseits besser und beständiger ist.
وَٱلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ
Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,
Most surely this is in the earlier scriptures,
Dies ist wahrlich in den früheren Blättern (enthalten),
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
The scriptures of Ibrahim and Musa.
den Blättern Ibrahims und Musas.
صُحُفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ
