Bei der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) überdeckt,
Waallayli itha yaghsha

By the night when it covers
Bei der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) überdeckt,
Waallayli itha yaghsha

And [by] the day when it appears

Waalnnahari itha tajalla

As for he who gives and fears Allah
Was nun jemanden angeht, der gibt und gottesfürchtig ist

But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
Was aber jemanden angeht, der geizt und sich für unbedürftig hält
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah),
And denies the best [reward],
und das Beste für Lüge erklärt,

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
und was soll sein Besitz ihm nützen, wenn er sich ins Verderben stürzt?

Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
Uns obliegt wahrlich die Rechtleitung.

So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
So habe Ich euch gewarnt vor einem Feuer, das lodert,
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
Therefore I warn you of the fire that flames:
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
dem nur der Unseligste ausgesetzt sein wird,
La yaslaha illa alashqa
None shall enter it but the most unhappy,
Who had denied and turned away.
der (die Botschaft) für Lüge erklärt und sich abkehrt.
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
Who gives the lie (to the truth) and turns (his) back.
But the righteous one will avoid it -
Doch davon ferngehalten wird der Gottesfürchtigste werden,
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
And away from it shall be kept the one who guards most (against evil),
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
der seinen Besitz hingibt, um sich zu läutern,
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
Who gives away his wealth, purifying himself
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
und niemand hat bei ihm eine Gunst (anzurechnen), die vergolten werden müßte,
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded,
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
sondern (er handelt) im Trachten nach dem Angesicht seines höchsten Herrn.
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
Except the seeking of the pleasure of his Lord, the Most High.
And he is going to be satisfied.
Und er wird wahrlich zufrieden sein.
Walasawfa yarda
And he shall soon be well - pleased.
