Surely We will suffice you against the scoffers
إِنَّا كَفَيْنَٰكَ ٱلْمُسْتَهْزِءِينَ
Who make [equal] with Allah another deity. But they are going to know.
Those who set up another god with Allah; so they shall soon know.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَجْعَلُونَ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
And We already know that your breast is constrained by what they say.
And surely We know that your breast straitens at what they say;
وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ يَضِيقُ صَدْرُكَ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ
So exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord and be of those who prostrate [to Him].
Therefore celebrate the praise of your Lord, and be of those who make obeisance.
فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَكُن مِّنَ ٱلسَّٰجِدِينَ
And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (death).
And serve your Lord until there comes to you that which is certain.
وَٱعْبُدْ رَبَّكَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِيَكَ ٱلْيَقِينُ
