Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
It shall be made into a vault over them,
Lo! it is closed in on them
In extended columns.
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In columns outstretched.
In outstretched columns.
