By the night when it covers
By the Night as it conceals (the light);
Bei der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) überdeckt,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والليل إذا يغشى
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the night when it covers

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والليل إذا يغشى
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
And [by] the day when it appears
By the Day as it appears in glory;
und dem Tag, wenn er (in seiner Helligkeit) erscheint,
والنهار إذا تجلى
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And [by] He who created the male and female,
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female; -

إن سعيكم لشتى
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
As for he who gives and fears Allah
So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),
Was nun jemanden angeht, der gibt und gottesfürchtig ist
فأما من أعطى واتقى
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
And believes in the best [reward],
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best, -

فسنيسره لليسرى
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self - sufficient,

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).

Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;
So habe Ich euch gewarnt vor einem Feuer, das lodert,
فأنذرتكم نارا تلظى
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.

الذي كذب وتولى
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

وسيجنبها الأتقى
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself

ولسوف يرضى
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
