And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
And by the Night when it is still, -
And by the night when it is stillest,
Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].
Dein Herr hat sich weder von dir verabschiedet noch haßt Er (dich).
Thy Guardian - Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].
Und das Jenseits ist wahrlich besser für dich als das Diesseits.
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,
And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
Und dein Herr wird dir wahrlich geben, und dann wirst du zufrieden sein.
And soon will thy Guardian - Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well - pleased.
And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?
Hat Er dich nicht als Waise gefunden und (dir) dann Zuflucht verschafft
Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?
And He found you lost and guided [you],
und dich irregehend gefunden und dann rechtgeleitet
And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
und dich arm gefunden und dann reich gemacht?
And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Was nun die Waise angeht, so unterjoche (sie) nicht,
Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
und was die Gunst deines Herrn angeht, so erzähle (davon).
But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
