By the clear Book,
Waalkitabi almubeeni
By the Scripture which maketh plain,
Bei dem deutlichen Buch!
Indeed, We have made it an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand.
Inna jaAAalnahu quranan AAarabiyyan laAAallakum taAAqiloona
Lo! We have appointed it a Lecture, in Arabic that haply ye may understand.
Wir haben es ja zu einem arabischen Qur'an gemacht, auf daß ihr begreifen möget;
And indeed it is, in the Mother of the Book with Us, exalted and full of wisdom.
Wainnahu fee ommi alkitabi ladayna laAAaliyyun hakeemun
And Lo! in the Source of Decrees, which We possess, it is indeed sublime, decisive.
und gewiß, er ist in der Urschrift des Buches bei Uns wahrlich erhaben und weise.
Then should We turn the message away, disregarding you, because you are a transgressing people?
Afanadribu AAankumu alththikra safhan an kuntum qawman musrifeena
Shall We utterly ignore you because ye are a wanton folk ?
Sollen Wir denn euch bei der Ermahnung unbeachtet lassen, weil ihr maßlose Leute seid?
And how many a prophet We sent among the former peoples,
Wakam arsalna min nabiyyin fee alawwaleena
How many a prophet did We send among the men of old!
Und wie viele Propheten haben Wir zu den früheren Geschlechtern gesandt!
But there would not come to them a prophet except that they used to ridicule him.
Wama yateehim min nabiyyin illa kanoo bihi yastahzioona
And never came there unto them a prophet but they used to mock him.
Und kein Gesandter kam zu ihnen, ohne daß sie sich über ihn lustig gemacht hätten.
And We destroyed greater than them in [striking] power, and the example of the former peoples has preceded.
Faahlakna ashadda minhum batshan wamada mathalu alawwaleena
Then We destroyed men mightier than these in prowess; and the example of the men of old hath gone (before them).
So haben Wir solche vernichtet, die eine stärkere Gewalt hatten als diese. Und vollzogen hat sich das Beispiel an den Früheren.
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."
Walain saaltahum man khalaqa alssamawati waalarda layaqoolunna khalaqahunna alAAazeezu alAAaleemu
And if thou (Muhammad) ask them: Who created the heavens and the earth, they will surely answer: The Mighty, the Knower 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,"
[The one] who has made for you the earth a bed and made for you upon it roads that you might be guided
Allathee jaAAala lakumu alarda mahdan wajaAAala lakum feeha subulan laAAallakum tahtadoona
Who made the earth a resting - place for you, and placed roads for you therein, that haply ye may find your way;
Der euch die Erde zu einer Lagerstatt gemacht und euch auf ihr Wege gemacht hat, auf daß ihr rechtgeleitet werden möget,
And who sends down rain from the sky in measured amounts, and We revive thereby a dead land - thus will you be brought forth -
Waallathee nazzala mina alssamai maan biqadarin faansharna bihi baldatan maytan kathalika tukhrajoona
And Who sendeth down water from the sky in (due) measure, and We revive a dead land therewith. Even so will ye 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 -,
And who created the species, all of them, and has made for you of ships and animals those which you mount.
Waallathee khalaqa alazwaja kullaha wajaAAala lakum mina alfulki waalanAAami ma tarkaboona
He Who created all the pairs, and appointed for you ships and cattle whereupon ye ride.
und Der die Paare alle erschaffen und euch an Schiffen und Vieh gemacht hat, was ihr besteigen könnt,
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.
Litastawoo AAala thuhoorihi thumma tathkuroo niAAmata rabbikum itha istawaytum AAalayhi wataqooloo subhana allathee sakhkhara lana hatha wama kunna lahu muqrineena
That ye may mount upon their backs, and may remember your Lord's favour when ye mount thereon, and may say: Glorified be He Who hath subdued these unto us, and we were not capable (of subduing them);
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.
And indeed we, to our Lord, will [surely] return."
Wainna ila rabbina lamunqaliboona
And lo! unto our Lord we surely are returning.
Und wir werden ganz gewiß zu unserem Herrn zurückkehren."
But they have attributed to Him from His servants a portion. Indeed, man is clearly ungrateful.
WajaAAaloo lahu min AAibadihi juzan inna alinsana lakafoorun mubeenun
And they allot to Him a portion of His bondmen! Lo! man is verily a mere ingrate.
Und sie stellen Ihm einen Teil von Seinen Dienern (als Seinesgleichen zur Seite). Der Mensch ist ja offenkundig sehr undankbar.
Or has He taken, out of what He has created, daughters and chosen you for [having] sons?
Ami ittakhatha mimma yakhluqu banatin waasfakum bialbaneena
Or chooseth He daughters of all that He hath created, and honoureth He you with sons ?
Oder hat Er sich etwa unter Seinen Geschöpfen Töchter genommen und für euch die Söhne erwählt?
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.
Waitha bushshira ahaduhum bima daraba lilrrahmani mathalan thalla wajhuhu muswaddan wahuwa katheemun
And if one of them hath tidings of that which he likeneth to the Beneficent One, his countenance becometh black and he is full of inward 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.
So is one brought up in ornaments while being during conflict unevident [attributed to Allah]?
Awaman yunashshao fee alhilyati wahuwa fee alkhisami ghayru mubeenin
(Liken they then to Allah) that which is bred up in outward show, and in dispute cannot make itself plain ?
(Wollen sie Allah) denn jemanden (zuschreiben), der im Schmuck aufgezogen wird und im Streit nicht deutlich wird?
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.
WajaAAaloo almalaikata allatheena hum AAibadu alrrahmani inathan ashahidoo khalqahum satuktabu shahadatuhum wayusaloona
And they make the angels, who are the slaves of the Beneficent, females. Did they witness their creation ? Their testimony will be recorded and they will 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.
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.
Waqaloo law shaa alrrahmanu ma AAabadnahum ma lahum bithalika min AAilmin in hum illa yakhrusoona
And they say: If the Beneficent One had (so) willed, we should not have worshipped them. They have no knowledge whatsoever of that. They do but guess.
Und sie sagen: "Wenn der Allerbarmer gewollt hätte, hätten wir ihnen nicht gedient." Sie haben kein Wissen davon; sie stellen nur Schätzungen an.
Or have We given them a book before the Qur'an to which they are adhering?
Am ataynahum kitaban min qablihi fahum bihi mustamsikoona
Or have We given them any scripture before (this Qur'an) so that they are holding fast thereto ?
Oder haben Wir ihnen etwa vor ihm eine Schrift gegeben, an der sie sich festhalten könnten?
Rather, they say, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are in their footsteps [rightly] guided."
Bal qaloo inna wajadna abaana AAala ommatin wainna AAala atharihim muhtadoona
Nay, for they say only: Lo! we found our fathers following a religion, and we are guided by their footprints.
Nein! Vielmehr sagen sie: "Wir haben ja (bereits) unsere Väter in einer (bestimmten) Glaubensrichtung vorgefunden, und auf ihren Spuren sind wir rechtgeleitet."
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."
Wakathalika ma arsalna min qablika fee qaryatin min natheerin illa qala mutrafooha inna wajadna abaana AAala ommatin wainna AAala atharihim muqtadoona
And even so We sent not a warner before thee (Muhammad) into any township but its luxurious ones said: Lo! we found our fathers following a religion, and we are following their footprints.
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."
[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."
Qala awalaw jitukum biahda mimma wajadtum AAalayhi abaakum qaloo inna bima orsiltum bihi kafiroona
(And the warner) said: What! Even though I bring you better guidance than that ye found your fathers following ? They answered: Lo! in what ye bring we are disbelievers.
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."
So we took retribution from them; then see how was the end of the deniers.
Faintaqamna minhum faonthur kayfa kana AAaqibatu almukaththibeena
So We requited them. Then see the nature of the consequence for the rejecters!
Da übten Wir an ihnen Vergeltung. So schau, wie das Ende der Leugner war.
And [mention, O Muhammad], when Abraham said to his father and his people, "Indeed, I am disassociated from that which you worship
Waith qala ibraheemu liabeehi waqawmihi innanee baraon mimma taAAbudoona
And when Abraham said unto his father and his folk: Lo! I am innocent of what ye worship
Und als Ibrahim zu seinem Vater und seinem Volk sagte: "Gewiß, ich sage mich los von dem, dem ihr dient,
Except for He who created me; and indeed, He will guide me."
Illa allathee fataranee fainnahu sayahdeeni
Save Him Who did create me, for He will surely guide me.
außer Demjenigen, Der mich erschaffen hat; denn Er wird mich gewiß rechtleiten."
And he made it a word remaining among his descendants that they might return [to it].
WajaAAalaha kalimatan baqiyatan fee AAaqibihi laAAallahum yarjiAAoona
And he made it a word enduring among his seed, that haply they might return.
Und er machte es zu einem bleibenden Wort unter seinen Nachkommen, auf daß sie umkehren mögen.
However, I gave enjoyment to these [people of Makkah] and their fathers until there came to them the truth and a clear Messenger.
Bal mattaAAtu haolai waabaahum hatta jaahumu alhaqqu warasoolun mubeenun
Nay, but I let these and their fathers enjoy life (only) till there should come unto them the Truth and a messenger making plain.
Aber nein! Ich habe diese da und ihre Väter genießen lassen, bis die Wahrheit und ein deutlicher Gesandter zu ihnen gekommen ist.
But when the truth came to them, they said, "This is magic, and indeed we are, concerning it, disbelievers."
Walamma jaahumu alhaqqu qaloo hatha sihrun wainna bihi kafiroona
And now that the Truth hath come unto them they say: This is mere magic, and lo! we are disbelievers therein.
Als nun die Wahrheit zu ihnen gekommen ist, sagen sie: "Das ist Zauberei, und wir verleugnen ihn."
And they said, "Why was this Qur'an not sent down upon a great man from [one of] the two cities?"
Waqaloo lawla nuzzila hatha alquranu AAala rajulin mina alqaryatayni AAatheemun
And they say: If only this Qur'an had been revealed to some great man of the two towns ?
Und sie sagen: "Wäre doch dieser Qur'an einem bedeutenden Mann aus den beiden Städten offenbart worden!"
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.
Ahum yaqsimoona rahmata rabbika nahnu qasamna baynahum maAAeeshatahum fee alhayati alddunya warafaAAna baAAdahum fawqa baAAdin darajatin liyattakhitha baAAduhum baAAdan sukhriyyan warahmatu rabbika khayrun mimma yajmaAAoona
Is it they who apportion thy Lord's mercy ? We have apportioned among them their livelihood in the life of the world, and raised some of them above others in rank that some of them may take labour from others; and the mercy of thy Lord is better than (the wealth) that 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.
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
Walawla an yakoona alnnasu ommatan wahidatan lajaAAalna liman yakfuru bialrrahmani libuyootihim suqufan min fiddatin wamaAAarija AAalayha yathharoona
And were it not that mankind would have become one community, We might well have appointed, for those who disbelieve in the Beneficent, roofs of silver for their houses and stairs (of silver) whereby to mount,
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,
And for their houses - doors and couches [of silver] upon which to recline
Walibuyootihim abwaban wasururan AAalayha yattakioona
And for their houses doors (of silver) and couches of silver whereon to recline,
und Türen für ihre Häuser, und Liegen, auf denen sie sich lehnen können,
And gold ornament. But all that is not but the enjoyment of worldly life. And the Hereafter with your Lord is for the righteous.
Wazukhrufan wain kullu thalika lamma mataAAu alhayati alddunya waalakhiratu AAinda rabbika lilmuttaqeena
And ornaments of gold. Yet all that would have been but a provision of the life of the world. And the Hereafter with your Lord would have been for those who keep from evil.
und (weitere) Zierde. All das ist aber nur Nießbrauch des diesseitigen Lebens. Das Jenseits bei deinem Herrn ist jedoch für die Gottesfürchtigen (bestimmt).
And whoever is blinded from remembrance of the Most Merciful - We appoint for him a devil, and he is to him a companion.
Waman yaAAshu AAan thikri alrrahmani nuqayyid lahu shaytanan fahuwa lahu qareenun
And he whose sight is dim to the remembrance of the Beneficent, We assign unto him a devil who becometh his comrade;
Wer für die Ermahnung des Allerbarmers blind ist, dem verschaffen Wir einen Satan, der ihm dann zum Gesellen wird.
And indeed, the devils avert them from the way [of guidance] while they think that they are [rightly] guided
Wainnahum layasuddoonahum AAani alssabeeli wayahsaboona annahum muhtadoona
And lo! they surely turn them from the way of Allah, and yet they deem that they are rightly guided;
Und sie halten sie wahrlich vom Weg ab, und diese meinen, sie seien rechtgeleitet.
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."
Hatta itha jaana qala ya layta baynee wabaynaka buAAda almashriqayni fabisa alqareenu
Till, when he cometh unto Us, he saith (unto his comrade): Ah, would that between me and thee there were the distance of the two horizons - an evil comrade!
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!
And never will it benefit you that Day, when you have wronged, that you are [all] sharing in the punishment.
Walan yanfaAAakumu alyawma ith thalamtum annakum fee alAAathabi mushtarikoona
And it profiteth you not this day, because ye did wrong, that ye will be sharers in the doom.
Heute wird euch, da ihr Unrecht getan habt, nicht nützen, daß ihr an demselben) Strafe teilhabt.
Then will you make the deaf hear, [O Muhammad], or guide the blind or he who is in clear error?
Afaanta tusmiAAu alssumma aw tahdee alAAumya waman kana fee dalalin mubeenin
Canst thou (Muhammad) make the deaf to hear, or canst thou guide the blind or him who is in error manifest ?
Bist du es etwa, der die Tauben hören läßt oder die Blinden und diejenigen recht leitet, die sich in deutlichem Irrtum befinden?
And whether [or not] We take you away [in death], indeed, We will take retribution upon them.
Faimma nathhabanna bika fainna minhum muntaqimoona
And if We take thee away, We surely shall take vengeance on them,
Sollten Wir dich (vorher) fortnehmen, so werden Wir (doch) an ihnen Vergeltung üben.
Or whether [or not] We show you that which We have promised them, indeed, We are Perfect in Ability.
Aw nuriyannaka allathee waAAadnahum fainna AAalayhim muqtadiroona
Or (if) We show thee that wherewith We threaten them; for lo! We have complete command of them.
Oder Wir zeigen dir, was Wir ihnen angedroht haben; so haben Wir ja ganz die Macht über sie.
So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path.
Faistamsik biallathee oohiya ilayka innaka AAala siratin mustaqeemin
So hold thou fast to that which is inspired in thee. Lo! thou art on a right path.
Halte also fest an dem, was dir (als Offenbarung) eingegeben worden ist; gewiß, du befindest dich auf einem geraden Weg.
And indeed, it is a remembrance for you and your people, and you [all] are going to be questioned.
Wainnahu lathikrun laka waliqawmika wasawfa tusaloona
And lo! it is in truth a Reminder for thee and for thy folk; and ye will be questioned.
Das ist wahrlich eine Ermahnung für dich und dein Volk. Und ihr werdet befragt werden.
And ask those We sent before you of Our messengers; have We made besides the Most Merciful deities to be worshipped?
Waisal man arsalna min qablika min rusulina ajaAAalna min dooni alrrahmani alihatan yuAAbadoona
And ask those of Our messengers whom We sent before thee: Did We ever appoint gods to be worshipped beside the Beneficent ?
Und frage wen von Unseren Gesandten Wir vor dir gesandt haben, ob Wir anstatt des Allerbarmers (andere) Götter eingesetzt haben, denen man dienen soll.
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."
Walaqad arsalna moosa biayatina ila firAAawna wamalaihi faqala innee rasoolu rabbi alAAalameena
And verily We sent Moses with Our revelations unto Pharaoh and his chiefs, and he said: I am a messenger 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."
But when he brought them Our signs, at once they laughed at them.
Falamma jaahum biayatina itha hum minha yadhakoona
But when he brought them Our tokens, behold! they laughed at them.
Als er nun zu ihnen mit Unseren Zeichen kam, lachten sie sogleich über sie.
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].
Wama nureehim min ayatin illa hiya akbaru min okhtiha waakhathnahum bialAAathabi laAAallahum yarjiAAoona
And every token that We showed them was greater than its sister (token), and We grasped them with the torment, that haply they might turn again.
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.
And they said [to Moses], "O magician, invoke for us your Lord by what He has promised you. Indeed, we will be guided."
Waqaloo ya ayyuha alsahiru odAAu lana rabbaka bima AAahida AAindaka innana lamuhtadoona
And they said: O wizard! Entreat thy Lord for us by the pact that He hath made with thee. Lo! we verily will walk aright.
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."
But when We removed from them the affliction, at once they broke their word.
Falamma kashafna AAanhumu alAAathaba itha hum yankuthoona
But when We eased them of the torment, behold! they broke their word.
Als Wir dann die Strafe von ihnen hinwegnahmen, da brachen sie sogleich ihr Wort.
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?
Wanada firAAawnu fee qawmihi qala ya qawmi alaysa lee mulku misra wahathihi alanharu tajree min tahtee afala tubsiroona
And Pharaoh caused a proclamation to be made among his people saying: O my people! Is not mine the sovereignty of Egypt and these rivers flowing under me ? Can ye not then discern ?
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?
Or am I [not] better than this one who is insignificant and hardly makes himself clear?
Am ana khayrun min hatha allathee huwa maheenun wala yakadu yubeenu
I am surely better than this fellow, who is despicable and can hardly make (his meaning) plain!
Oder bin ich nicht besser als dieser, der verächtlich ist und sich kaum deutlich äußern kann?
Then why have there not been placed upon him bracelets of gold or come with him the angels in conjunction?"
Falawla olqiya AAalayhi aswiratun min thahabin aw jaa maAAahu almalaikatu muqtarineena
Why, then, have armlets of gold not been set upon him, or angels sent along with him ?
Würden doch Armringe aus Gold auf ihn herabgeworfen oder die Engel mit ihm als Begleitung kommen!"
So he bluffed his people, and they obeyed him. Indeed, they were [themselves] a people defiantly disobedient [of Allah].
Faistakhaffa qawmahu faataAAoohu innahum kanoo qawman fasiqeena
Thus he persuaded his people to make light (of Moses), and they obeyed him. Lo! they were a wanton folk.
Er fand sein Volk leicht (zu beeinflussen), und da gehorchten sie ihm. Gewiß, sie waren ein Volk von Frevlern.
And when they angered Us, We took retribution from them and drowned them all.
Falamma asafoona intaqamna minhum faaghraqnahum ajmaAAeena
So, when they angered Us, We punished them and drowned them every one.
Als sie Uns Kummer bereiteten, übten Wir an ihnen Vergeltung, und so ließen Wir sie allesamt ertrinken.
And We made them a precedent and an example for the later peoples.
FajaAAalnahum salafan wamathalan lilakhireena
And We made them a thing past, and an example for those after (them).
Wir machten sie zu Vorgängern und zu einem Beispiel für die späteren (Geschlechter).
And when the son of Mary was presented as an example, immediately your people laughed aloud.
Walamma duriba ibnu maryama mathalan itha qawmuka minhu yasiddoona
And when the son of Mary is quoted as an example, behold! the folk laugh out,
Und als der Sohn Maryams als Beispiel angeführt wurde, da brach dein Volk sogleich in Geschrei aus.
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.
Waqaloo aalihatuna khayrun am huwa ma daraboohu laka illa jadalan bal hum qawmun khasimoona
And say: Are our gods better, or is he ? They raise not the objection save for argument. Nay! but they are a contentious folk.
Und sie sagten: "Sind unsere Götter besser oder er?" Sie führten ihn dir nur zum Streiten an. Nein! Vielmehr sind sie streitsüchtige Leute.
Jesus was not but a servant upon whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the Children of Israel.
In huwa illa AAabdun anAAamna AAalayhi wajaAAalnahu mathalan libanee israeela
He is nothing but a slave on whom We bestowed favour, and We made him a pattern 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.
And if We willed, We could have made [instead] of you angels succeeding [one another] on the earth.
Walaw nashao lajaAAalna minkum malaikatan fee alardi yakhlufoona
And had We willed We could have set among you angels to be viceroys in the earth.
Und wenn Wir wollten, könnten Wir euch wahrlich zu Engeln machen, die zu Statthaltern auf der Erde würden.
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.
Wainnahu laAAilmun lilssaAAati fala tamtarunna biha waittabiAAooni hatha siratun mustaqeemun
And lo! verily there is knowledge of the Hour. So doubt ye not concerning it, but 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.
And never let Satan avert you. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.
Wala yasuddannakumu alshshaytanu innahu lakum AAaduwwun mubeenun
And let not Satan turn you aside. Lo! he is an open enemy for you.
Und der Satan soll euch ja nicht abhalten. Gewiß, er ist euch ein deutlicher Feind.
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.
Walamma jaa AAeesa bialbayyinati qala qad jitukum bialhikmati waliobayyina lakum baAAda allathee takhtalifoona feehi faittaqoo Allaha waateeAAooni
When Jesus came with clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty), he said: I have come unto you with wisdom, and to make plain some of that concerning which ye differ. So keep 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.
Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. This is a straight path."
Inna Allaha huwa rabbee warabbukum faoAAbudoohu hatha siratun mustaqeemun
Lo! Allah, He is my Lord and your Lord. So worship Him. This is a right path.
Gewiß, Allah ist ja mein Herr und euer Herr; so dient Ihm. Das ist ein gerader Weg."
But the denominations from among them differed [and separated], so woe to those who have wronged from the punishment of a painful Day.
Faikhtalafa alahzabu min baynihim fawaylun lillatheena thalamoo min AAathabi yawmin aleemin
But the factions among them differed. Then woe unto those who do wrong from the doom of a painful day.
Doch wurden die Gruppierungen untereinander uneinig; so wehe denjenigen, die Unrecht tun, vor der Strafe eines schmerzhaften Tages!
Are they waiting except for the Hour to come upon them suddenly while they perceive not?
Hal yanthuroona illa alssaAAata an tatiyahum baghtatan wahum la yashAAuroona
Await they aught save the Hour, that it shall come upon them suddenly, when they know not ?
Erwarten sie nur die Stunde, daß sie plötzlich über sie kommt, ohne daß sie merken?
Close friends, that Day, will be enemies to each other, except for the righteous
Alakhillao yawmaithin baAAduhum libaAAdin AAaduwwun illa almuttaqeena
Friends on that day will be foes one to another, save those who kept their duty (to Allah).
Die Freunde werden an jenem Tag einer des anderen Feind sein, außer den Gottesfürchtigen.
[To whom Allah will say], "O My servants, no fear will there be concerning you this Day, nor will you grieve,
Ya AAibadi la khawfun AAalaykumu alyawma wala antum tahzanoona
O My slaves! For you there is no fear this day, nor is it ye who grieve;
"O meine Diener, keine Furcht soll heute über euch kommen, noch sollt ihr traurig sein,
[You] who believed in Our verses and were Muslims.
Allatheena amanoo biayatina wakanoo muslimeena
(Ye) who believed Our revelations and were self - surrendered,
(ihr,) die ihr an Unsere Zeichen glaubtet und (Allah) ergeben wart.
Enter Paradise, you and your kinds, delighted."
Odkhuloo aljannata antum waazwajukum tuhbaroona
Enter the Garden, ye and your wives, to be made glad.
Geht in den (Paradies)garten ein, euch und euren Gattinnen wird Freude bereitet."
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.
Yutafu AAalayhim bisihafin min thahabin waakwabin wafeeha ma tashtaheehi alanfusu watalaththu alaAAyunu waantum feeha khalidoona
Therein are brought round for them trays of gold and goblets, and therein is all that souls desire and eyes find sweet. And ye are immortal 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.
