Chapter 101, 11 verses
The Striking Calamity -
Das Verhängnis!
The terrible calamity!
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
What is the Striking Calamity?
Was ist das Verhängnis?
What is the terrible calamity!
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
And what will make you comprehend what the terrible calamity is?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
The day on which men shall be as scattered moths,
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
And the mountains shall be as loosened wool.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
Then as for him whose measure of good deeds is heavy,
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
He will be in a pleasant life.
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
He shall live a pleasant life.
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
But as for one whose scales are light,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
And as for him whose measure of good deeds is light,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
His refuge will be an abyss.
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
His abode shall be the abyss.
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ
And what can make you know what that is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
And what will make you know what it is?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
A burning fire.
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ
