By the morning brightness
Bei der Morgenhelle
By the Glorious Morning Light,
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
And by the Night when it is still, -
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.
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 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.
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)?
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.
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.
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,
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
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!
