Chapter 18, 110 verses
Praise be to Allah, Who hath sent to His Servant the Book, and hath allowed therein no Crookedness:
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Praise be to Allah Who hath revealed the Scripture unto His slave, and hath not placed therein any crookedness,
(Alles) Lob gehört Allah, Der das Buch (als Offenbarung) auf Seinen Diener herabgesandt und daran nichts Krummes gemacht hat,
ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنزَلَ عَلَىٰ عَبْدِهِ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَلَمْ يَجْعَل لَّهُۥ عِوَجَا
(He hath made it) Straight (and Clear) in order that He may warn (the godless) of a terrible Punishment from Him, and that He may give Glad Tidings to the Believers who work righteous deeds, that they shall have a goodly Reward,
(But hath made it) straight, to give warning of stern punishment from Him, and to bring unto the believers who do good works the news that theirs will be a fair reward,
(ein Buch,) das richtig ist, damit er vor harter Gewalt von Ihm aus warne und den Gläubigen, die rechtschaffene Werke tun, verkünde, daß es für sie schönen Lohn geben wird -,
قَيِّمًا لِّيُنذِرَ بَأْسًا شَدِيدًا مِّن لَّدُنْهُ وَيُبَشِّرَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ أَنَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا حَسَنًا
Wherein they shall remain for ever:
Wherein they will abide for ever;
auf immer darin zu verbleiben -,
مَّٰكِثِينَ فِيهِ أَبَدًا
Further, that He may warn those (also) who say, "Allah hath begotten a son":
And to warn those who say: Allah hath chosen a son,
und (damit er) diejenigen warne, die sagen: "Allah hat Sich Kinder genommen."
وَيُنذِرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوا۟ ٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ وَلَدًا
No knowledge have they of such a thing, nor had their fathers. It is a grievous thing that issues from their mouths as a saying what they say is nothing but falsehood!
(A thing) whereof they have no knowledge, nor (had) their fathers, Dreadful is the word that cometh out of their mouths. They speak naught but a lie.
Sie haben kein Wissen davon, und auch nicht ihre Väter. Welch schwerwiegendes Wort kommt aus ihren Mündern heraus. Sie sagen nichts als Lüge.
مَّا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنْ عِلْمٍ وَلَا لِءَابَآئِهِمْ كَبُرَتْ كَلِمَةً تَخْرُجُ مِنْ أَفْوَٰهِهِمْ إِن يَقُولُونَ إِلَّا كَذِبًا
Thou wouldst only, perchance, fret thyself to death, following after them, in grief, if they believe not in this Message.
Yet it may be, if they believe not in this statement, that thou (Muhammad) wilt torment thy soul with grief over their footsteps.
Vielleicht magst du (aus Gram) noch dich selbst umbringen, wenn sie an diese Botschaft nicht glauben, nachdem sie sich abgewandt haben.
فَلَعَلَّكَ بَٰخِعٌ نَّفْسَكَ عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِمْ إِن لَّمْ يُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِهَٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَسَفًا
That which is on earth we have made but as a glittering show for the earth, in order that We may test them - as to which of them are best in conduct.
Lo! We have placed all that is on the earth as an ornament thereof that We may try them: which of them is best in conduct.
Gewiß, Wir haben (alles), was auf der Erde ist, zu einem Schmuck für sie gemacht, um sie zu prüfen (und festzustellen), wer von ihnen die besten Taten begeht.
إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا مَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ زِينَةً لَّهَا لِنَبْلُوَهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا
Verily what is on earth we shall make but as dust and dry soil (without growth or herbage).
And lo! We shall make all that is thereon a barren mound.
Und Wir werden das, was auf ihr ist, wahrlich zu unfruchtbarem Erdboden machen.
وَإِنَّا لَجَٰعِلُونَ مَا عَلَيْهَا صَعِيدًا جُرُزًا
Or dost thou reflect that the Companions of the Cave and of the Inscription were wonders among Our Sign?
Or deemest thou that the People of the Cave and the Inscription are a wonder among Our portents ?
Oder meinst du etwa, daß die Leute der Höhle und der Inschrift ein (besonders) verwunderliches unter Unseren Zeichen sind?
أَمْ حَسِبْتَ أَنَّ أَصْحَٰبَ ٱلْكَهْفِ وَٱلرَّقِيمِ كَانُوا۟ مِنْ ءَايَٰتِنَا عَجَبًا
Behold, the youths betook themselves to the Cave: they said, "Our Lord! bestow on us Mercy from Thyself, and dispose of our affair for us in the right way!"
When the young men fled for refuge to the Cave and said: Our Lord! Give us mercy from Thy presence, and shape for us right conduct in our plight.
Als die Jünglinge in der Höhle Zuflucht suchten und sagten: "Unser Herr, gib uns Barmherzigkeit von Dir aus, und bereite uns in unserer Angelegenheit einen rechten (Aus)weg."
إِذْ أَوَى ٱلْفِتْيَةُ إِلَى ٱلْكَهْفِ فَقَالُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحْمَةً وَهَيِّئْ لَنَا مِنْ أَمْرِنَا رَشَدًا
Then We draw (a veil) over their ears, for a number of years, in the Cave, (so that they heard not):
Then We sealed up their hearing in the Cave for a number of years.
Da ließen Wir sie in der Höhle für eine Anzahl von Jahren in Dauerschlaf fallen.
فَضَرَبْنَا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ فِى ٱلْكَهْفِ سِنِينَ عَدَدًا
Then We roused them, in order to test which of the two parties was best at calculating the term of years they had tarried!
And afterward We raised them up that We might know which of the two parties would best calculate the time that they had tarried.
Hierauf erweckten Wir sie auf, um zu wissen, welche der beiden Gruppierungen am richtigsten die Dauer ihres Verweilens erfaßt hat.
ثُمَّ بَعَثْنَٰهُمْ لِنَعْلَمَ أَىُّ ٱلْحِزْبَيْنِ أَحْصَىٰ لِمَا لَبِثُوٓا۟ أَمَدًا
We relate to thee their story in truth: they were youths who believed in their Lord, and We advanced them in guidance:
We narrate unto thee their story with truth. Lo! they were young men who believed in their Lord, and We increased them in guidance.
Wir berichten dir ihre Geschichte der Wahrheit entsprechend. Sie waren Jünglinge, die an ihren Herrn glaubten und denen Wir ihre Rechtleitung mehrten.
نَّحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ نَبَأَهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ إِنَّهُمْ فِتْيَةٌ ءَامَنُوا۟ بِرَبِّهِمْ وَزِدْنَٰهُمْ هُدًى
We gave strength to their hearts: Behold, they stood up and said: "Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and of the earth: never shall we call upon any god other than Him: if we did, we should indeed have uttered an enormity!
And We made firm their hearts when they stood forth and said: Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth. We cry unto no God beside Him, for then should we utter an enormity.
Und Wir stärkten ihre Herzen, als sie aufstanden und sagten: "Unser Herr ist der Herr der Himmel und der Erde. Wir werden außer Ihm keinen (anderen) Gott anrufen, sonst würden wir ja etwas Unrechtes sagen.
وَرَبَطْنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ إِذْ قَامُوا۟ فَقَالُوا۟ رَبُّنَا رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ لَن نَّدْعُوَا۟ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ إِلَٰهًا لَّقَدْ قُلْنَآ إِذًا شَطَطًا
"These our people have taken for worship gods other than Him: why do they not bring forward an authority clear (and convincing) for what they do? Who doth more wrong than such as invent a falsehood against Allah?
These, our people, have chosen (other) gods beside Him though they bring no clear warrant (vouchsafed) to them. And who doth greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie concerning Allah ?
Dieses, unser Volk hat sich außer Ihm (andere) Götter genommen. Wenn sie doch für sie eine deutliche Ermächtigung bringen würden! Wer ist denn ungerechter, als wer gegen Allah eine Lüge ersinnt?
هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوْمُنَا ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةً لَّوْلَا يَأْتُونَ عَلَيْهِم بِسُلْطَٰنٍۭ بَيِّنٍ فَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ ٱفْتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًا
"When ye turn away from them and the things they worship other than Allah, betake yourselves to the Cave: Your Lord will shower His mercies on you and disposes of your affair towards comfort and ease."
And when ye withdraw from them and that which they worship except Allah, then seek refuge in the Cave; your Lord will spread for you of His mercy and will prepare for you a pillow in your plight.
Und da ihr euch nun von ihnen und von demjenigen, dem sie außer Allah dienen, fernhaltet, so sucht Zuflucht in der Höhle; euer Herr wird über euch (einiges) von Seiner Barmherzigkeit ausbreiten und euch in eurer Angelegenheit eine milde Behandlung bereiten."
وَإِذِ ٱعْتَزَلْتُمُوهُمْ وَمَا يَعْبُدُونَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ فَأْوُۥٓا۟ إِلَى ٱلْكَهْفِ يَنشُرْ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّن رَّحْمَتِهِۦ وَيُهَيِّئْ لَكُم مِّنْ أَمْرِكُم مِّرْفَقًا
Thou wouldst have seen the sun, when it rose, declining to the right from their Cave, and when it set, turning away from them to the left, while they lay in the open space in the midst of the Cave. Such are among the Signs of Allah: He whom Allah, guides is rightly guided; but he whom Allah leaves to stray, - for him wilt thou find no protector to lead him to the Right Way.
And thou mightest have seen the sun when it rose move away from their cave to the right, and when it set go past them on the left, and they were in the cleft thereof. That was (one) of the portents of Allah. He whom Allah guideth, he indeed is led aright, and he whom He sendeth astray, for him thou wilt not find a guiding friend.
Und du siehst die Sonne, wenn sie aufgeht, sich von ihrer Höhle zur Rechten wegneigen, und wenn sie untergeht, an ihnen zur Linken vorbeigehen, während sie sich darin in einem Raum befinden. Das gehört zu Allahs Zeichen. Wen Allah rechtleitet, der ist (in Wahrheit) rechtgeleitet; wen Er aber in die Irre gehen läßt, für den wirst du keinen Schutzherrn finden, der ihn den rechten Weg führt.
وَتَرَى ٱلشَّمْسَ إِذَا طَلَعَت تَّزَٰوَرُ عَن كَهْفِهِمْ ذَاتَ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَإِذَا غَرَبَت تَّقْرِضُهُمْ ذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَهُمْ فِى فَجْوَةٍ مِّنْهُ ذَٰلِكَ مِنْ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ مَن يَهْدِ ٱللَّهُ فَهُوَ
Thou wouldst have deemed them awake, whilst they were asleep, and We turned them on their right and on their left sides: their dog stretching forth his two fore - legs on the threshold: if thou hadst come up on to them, thou wouldst have certainly turned back from them in flight, and wouldst certainly have been filled with terror of them.
And thou wouldst have deemed them waking though they were asleep, and We caused them to turn over to the right and the left, and their dog stretching out his paws on the threshold. If thou hadst observed them closely thou hadst assuredly turned away from them in flight, and hadst been filled with awe of them.
Du meinst, sie seien wach, obwohl sie schlafen. Und Wir drehen sie nach rechts und nach links um, während ihr Hund seine Vorderbeine im Vorraum ausstreckt. Wenn du sie erblicktest, würdest du dich vor ihnen fürwahr zur Flucht kehren und vor ihnen fürwahr mit Schrecken erfüllt sein.
وَتَحْسَبُهُمْ أَيْقَاظًا وَهُمْ رُقُودٌ وَنُقَلِّبُهُمْ ذَاتَ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَكَلْبُهُم بَٰسِطٌ ذِرَاعَيْهِ بِٱلْوَصِيدِ لَوِ ٱطَّلَعْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَوَلَّيْتَ مِنْهُمْ فِرَارًا وَلَمُلِئْتَ مِنْهُم
Such (being their state), we raised them up (from sleep), that they might question each other. Said one of them, "How long have ye stayed (here)?" They said, "We have stayed (perhaps) a day, or part of a day." (At length) they (all) said, "Allah (alone) knows best how long ye have stayed here.... Now send ye then one of you with this money of yours to the town: let him find out which is the best food (to be had) and bring some to you, that (ye may) satisfy your hunger therewith: And let him behave with care and courtesy, and let him not inform any one about you.
And in like manner We awakened them that they might question one another. A speaker from among them said: How long have ye tarried ? They said: We have tarried a day or some part of a day, (Others) said: Your Lord best knoweth what ye have tarried. Now send one of you with this your silver coin unto the city, and let him see what food is purest there and bring you a supply thereof. Let him be courteous and let no man know of you.
Und so erweckten Wir sie auf, damit sie sich gegenseitig fragten. Einer von ihnen sagte: "Wie lange habt ihr verweilt?" Sie sagten: "Verweilt haben wir einen Tag oder den Teil eines Tages." Sie sagten: "Euer Herr weiß am besten, wie (lange) ihr verweilt habt. So schickt einen von euch mit diesen euren Silbermünzen in die Stadt; er soll sehen, welche ihre reinste Speise ist, und euch davon eine Versorgung bringen. Er soll behutsam sein und ja niemanden etwas von euch merken lassen.
وَكَذَٰلِكَ بَعَثْنَٰهُمْ لِيَتَسَآءَلُوا۟ بَيْنَهُمْ قَالَ قَآئِلٌ مِّنْهُمْ كَمْ لَبِثْتُمْ قَالُوا۟ لَبِثْنَا يَوْمًا أَوْ بَعْضَ يَوْمٍ قَالُوا۟ رَبُّكُمْ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا لَبِثْتُمْ فَٱبْعَثُوٓا۟ أَحَدَكُم
"For if they should come upon you, they would stone you or force you to return to their cult, and in that case ye would never attain prosperity."
For they, if they should come to know of you, will stone you or turn you back to their religion; then ye will never prosper.
Denn wenn sie von euch erfahren', werden sie euch steinigen oder euch (zwangsweise) zu ihrer Glaubensrichtung zurückbringen; dann wird es euch niemals mehr wohl ergehen."
إِنَّهُمْ إِن يَظْهَرُوا۟ عَلَيْكُمْ يَرْجُمُوكُمْ أَوْ يُعِيدُوكُمْ فِى مِلَّتِهِمْ وَلَن تُفْلِحُوٓا۟ إِذًا أَبَدًا
Thus did We make their case known to the people, that they might know that the promise of Allah is true, and that there can be no doubt about the Hour of Judgment. Behold, they dispute among themselves as to their affair. (Some) said, "Construct a building over them": Their Lord knows best about them: those who prevailed over their affair said, "Let us surely build a place of worship over them."
And in like manner We disclosed them (to the people of the city) that they might know that the promise of Allah is true, and that, as for the Hour, there is no doubt concerning it. When (the people of the city) disputed of their case among themselves, they said: Build over them a building; their Lord knoweth best concerning them. Those who won their point said: We verily shall build a place of worship over them.
So ließen Wir (die Menschen) sie doch entdecken, damit sie wissen, daß Allahs Versprechen wahr ist und daß es an der Stunde keinen Zweifel gibt. Als sie untereinander über ihre Angelegenheit stritten, da sagten sie: "Errichtet über ihnen einen Bau. Ihr Herr weiß am besten über sie Bescheid." Diejenigen, die in ihrer Angelegenheit siegten, sagten: "Wir werden uns über ihnen ganz gewiß eine Gebetsstätte einrichten."
وَكَذَٰلِكَ أَعْثَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ لِيَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَأَنَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهَآ إِذْ يَتَنَٰزَعُونَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَمْرَهُمْ فَقَالُوا۟ ٱبْنُوا۟ عَلَيْهِم بُنْيَٰنًا رَّبُّهُمْ أَ
(Some) say they were three, the dog being the fourth among them; (others) say they were five, the dog being the sixth, - doubtfully guessing at the unknown; (yet others) say they were seven, the dog being the eighth. Say thou: "My Lord knoweth best their number; It is but few that know their (real case)." Enter not, therefore, into controversies concerning them, except on a matter that is clear, nor consult any of them about (the affair of) the Sleepers.
(Some) will say: They were three, their dog the fourth, and (some) say: Five, their dog the sixth, guessing at random; and (some) say: Seven, and their dog the eighth. Say (O Muhammad): My Lord is Best Aware of their number. None knoweth them save a few. So contend not concerning them except with an outward contending, and ask not any of them to pronounce concerning them.
(Manche) werden sagen: "(Es waren ihrer) drei, ihr Hund war der vierte von ihnen." Und (manche) sagen: "(Es waren ihrer) fünf, der sechste von ihnen war ihr Hund." - Ein Herumraten über das Verborgene. Und (manche) sagen: "(Es waren ihrer) sieben, und der achte von ihnen war ihr Hund." Sag: Mein Herr kennt ihre Zahl am besten; nur wenige kennen sie. Darum streite über sie nur in offensichtlichem Streit, und frage niemanden von ihnen um Auskunft über sie.
سَيَقُولُونَ ثَلَٰثَةٌ رَّابِعُهُمْ كَلْبُهُمْ وَيَقُولُونَ خَمْسَةٌ سَادِسُهُمْ كَلْبُهُمْ رَجْمًۢا بِٱلْغَيْبِ وَيَقُولُونَ سَبْعَةٌ وَثَامِنُهُمْ كَلْبُهُمْ قُل رَّبِّىٓ أَعْلَمُ بِعِدَّتِهِم مَّا يَعْلَمُهُمْ إِ
Nor say of anything, "I shall be sure to do so and so tomorrow" -
And say not of anything: Lo! I shall do that tomorrow,
Und sag ja nur nicht von einer Sache: "Ich werde dies morgen tun",
وَلَا تَقُولَنَّ لِشَا۟ىْءٍ إِنِّى فَاعِلٌ ذَٰلِكَ غَدًا
Without adding, "So please Allah!" and call thy Lord to mind when thou forgettest, and say, "I hope that my Lord will guide me ever closer (even) than this to the right road."
Except if Allah will. And remember thy Lord when thou forgettest, and say: It may be that my Lord guideth me unto a nearer way of truth than this.
außer (du fügst hinzu): "Wenn Allah will." Und gedenke deines Herrn, wenn du (etwas) vergessen hast, und sag: "Vielleicht leitet mich mein Herr zu etwas, was dem rechten Ausweg näher kommt als dies."
إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ وَٱذْكُر رَّبَّكَ إِذَا نَسِيتَ وَقُلْ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَهْدِيَنِ رَبِّى لِأَقْرَبَ مِنْ هَٰذَا رَشَدًا
So they stayed in their Cave three hundred years, and (some) add nine (more)
And (it is said) they tarried in their Cave three hundred years and add nine.
Und sie verweilten in ihrer Höhle dreihundert Jahre und noch neun dazu.
وَلَبِثُوا۟ فِى كَهْفِهِمْ ثَلَٰثَ مِا۟ئَةٍ سِنِينَ وَٱزْدَادُوا۟ تِسْعًا
Say: "Allah knows best how long they stayed: with Him is (the knowledge of) the secrets of the heavens and the earth: how clearly He sees, how finely He hears (everything)! They have no protector other than Him; nor does He share His Command with any person whatsoever.
Say: Allah is Best Aware how long they tarried. His is the Invisible of the heavens and the earth. How clear of sight is He and keen of hearing! They have no protecting friend beside Him, and He maketh none to share in His government.
Sag: Allah weiß am besten, wie (lange) sie verweilten. Sein ist das Verborgene der Himmel und der Erde. Wie vorzüglich ist Er als Allsehender, und wie vorzüglich ist Er als Allhörender! Sie haben außer Ihm keinen Schutzherrn, und Er beteiligt an Seiner Urteilsgewalt niemanden.
قُلِ ٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا لَبِثُوا۟ لَهُۥ غَيْبُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ أَبْصِرْ بِهِۦ وَأَسْمِعْ مَا لَهُم مِّن دُونِهِۦ مِن وَلِىٍّ وَلَا يُشْرِكُ فِى حُكْمِهِۦٓ أَحَدًا
And recite (and teach) what has been revealed to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can change His Words, and none wilt thou find as a refuge other than Him.
And recite that which hath been revealed unto thee of the Scripture of thy Lord. There is none who can change His words, and thou wilt find no refuge beside Him.
Und verlies, was dir vom Buch deines Herrn (als Offenbarung) eingegeben worden ist. Es gibt niemanden, der Seine Worte abändern könnte, und du wirst außer (bei) Ihm keine Zuflucht finden.
وَٱتْلُ مَآ أُوحِىَ إِلَيْكَ مِن كِتَابِ رَبِّكَ لَا مُبَدِّلَ لِكَلِمَٰتِهِۦ وَلَن تَجِدَ مِن دُونِهِۦ مُلْتَحَدًا
And keep thy soul content with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His Face; and let not thine eyes pass beyond them, seeking the pomp and glitter of this Life; no obey any whose heart We have permitted to neglect the remembrance of Us, one who follows his own desires, whose case has gone beyond all bounds.
Restrain thyself along with those who cry unto their Lord at morn and evening, seeking His Countenance; and let not thine eyes overlook them, desiring the pomp of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance, who followeth his own lust and whose case hath been abandoned.
Halte dich geduldig zurück zusammen mit denen, die ihren Herrn morgens und abends anrufen, im Begehren nach Seinem Angesicht. Und deine Augen sollen nicht über sie hinwegsehen, indem du den Schmuck des diesseitigen Lebens begehrst'. Und gehorche nicht jemandem, dessen Herz Wir Unserem Gedenken gegenüber unachtsam gemacht haben, der seiner Neigung folgt und dessen Angelegenheit (durch) Maßlosigkeit (ausgezeichnet) ist.
وَٱصْبِرْ نَفْسَكَ مَعَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُم بِٱلْغَدَوٰةِ وَٱلْعَشِىِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُۥ وَلَا تَعْدُ عَيْنَاكَ عَنْهُمْ تُرِيدُ زِينَةَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَلَا تُطِعْ مَنْ أَغْفَلْنَا قَلْبَهُۥ
Say, "The truth is from your Lord": Let him who will believe, and let him who will, reject (it): for the wrong - doers We have prepared a Fire whose (smoke and flames), like the walls and roof of a tent, will hem them in: if they implore relief they will be granted water like melted brass, that will scald their faces, how dreadful the drink! How uncomfortable a couch to recline on!
Say: (It is) the truth from the Lord of you (all). Then whosoever will, let him believe, and whosoever will, let him disbelieve. Lo! We have prepared for disbelievers Fire. Its tent encloseth them. If they ask for showers, they will be showered with water like to molten lead which burneth the faces. Calamitous the drink and ill the resting - place!
Und sag: (Es ist) die Wahrheit von eurem Herrn. Wer nun will, der soll glauben, und wer will, der soll ungläubig sein. Gewiß, Wir haben den Ungerechten ein Feuer bereitet, dessen Zeltdecke sie umfangen hält. Und wenn sie um Hilfe rufen, wird ihnen mit Wasser wie geschmolzenem Erz geholfen, das die Gesichter versengt - ein schlimmes Getränk und ein böser Rastplatz!
وَقُلِ ٱلْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكُمْ فَمَن شَآءَ فَلْيُؤْمِن وَمَن شَآءَ فَلْيَكْفُرْ إِنَّآ أَعْتَدْنَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ نَارًا أَحَاطَ بِهِمْ سُرَادِقُهَا وَإِن يَسْتَغِيثُوا۟ يُغَاثُوا۟ بِمَآءٍ كَٱلْمُهْلِ يَشْوِ
As to those who believe and work righteousness, verily We shall not suffer to perish the reward of any who do a (single) righteous deed.
Lo! as for those who believe and do good works - Lo! We suffer not the reward of one whose work is goodly to be lost.
Diejenigen, die glauben und rechtschaffene Werke tun - gewiß, Wir lassen den Lohn derer nicht verlorengehen, die die besten Taten begehen.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ إِنَّا لَا نُضِيعُ أَجْرَ مَنْ أَحْسَنَ عَمَلًا
For them will be Gardens of Eternity; beneath them rivers will flow; they will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold, and they will wear green garments of fine silk and heavy brocade: They will recline therein on raised thrones. How good the recompense! How beautiful a couch to recline on!
As for such, theirs will be Gardens of Eden, wherein rivers flow beneath them; therein they will be given armlets of gold and will wear green robes of finest silk and gold embroidery, reclining upon throne therein. Blest the reward, and fair the resting - place!
Für jene wird es die Gärten Edens geben, wo unterhalb von) ihnen Flüsse strömen. Geschmückt sind sie darin mit Armreifen aus Gold, und sie tragen grüne Gewänder aus Seidenbrokat und schwerem Brokat, indem sie sich darin auf überdachten Liegen lehnen. Wie trefflich ist die Belohnung und wie schön der Rastplatz!
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ جَنَّٰتُ عَدْنٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهِمُ ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ يُحَلَّوْنَ فِيهَا مِنْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن ذَهَبٍ وَيَلْبَسُونَ ثِيَابًا خُضْرًا مِّن سُندُسٍ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٍ مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ فِيهَا عَلَى ٱلْأَ
Set forth to them the parable of two men: for one of them We provided two gardens of grape - vines and surrounded them with date palms; in between the two We placed corn - fields.
Coin for them a similitude: Two men, unto one of whom We had assigned two gardens of grapes, and We had surrounded both with date - palms and had put between them tillage.
Und präge ihnen das Gleichnis von zwei Männern. Dem einen der beiden gaben Wir zwei Gärten mit Rebstöcken, und Wir umgaben sie mit Palmen und legten dazwischen (sonstige) Pflanzungen an.
وَٱضْرِبْ لَهُم مَّثَلًا رَّجُلَيْنِ جَعَلْنَا لِأَحَدِهِمَا جَنَّتَيْنِ مِنْ أَعْنَٰبٍ وَحَفَفْنَٰهُمَا بِنَخْلٍ وَجَعَلْنَا بَيْنَهُمَا زَرْعًا
Each of those gardens brought forth its produce, and failed not in the least therein: in the midst of them We caused a river to flow.
Each of the gardens gave its fruit and withheld naught thereof. And We caused a river to gush forth therein.
Beide Gärten brachten ihren Ernteertrag hervor und ließen es in nichts davon fehlen. Und Wir ließen dazwischen einen Fluß hervorströmen.
كِلْتَا ٱلْجَنَّتَيْنِ ءَاتَتْ أُكُلَهَا وَلَمْ تَظْلِم مِّنْهُ شَيْـًٔا وَفَجَّرْنَا خِلَٰلَهُمَا نَهَرًا
(Abundant) was the produce this man had: he said to his companion, in the course of a mutual argument: "more wealth have I than you, and more honour and power in (my following of) men."
And he had fruit. And he said unto his comrade, when he spake with him: I am more than thee in wealth, and stronger in respect of men.
Er hatte (daraus reichlich) Früchte. Da sagte er zu seinem Gefährten, während er mit ihm einen Wortwechsel führte: "Ich habe mehr Besitz als du und auch eine mächtigere Schar."
وَكَانَ لَهُۥ ثَمَرٌ فَقَالَ لِصَٰحِبِهِۦ وَهُوَ يُحَاوِرُهُۥٓ أَنَا۠ أَكْثَرُ مِنكَ مَالًا وَأَعَزُّ نَفَرًا
He went into his garden in a state (of mind) unjust to his soul: He said, "I deem not that this will ever perish,
And he went into his garden, while he (thus) wronged himself. He said: I think not that all this will ever perish.
Und er betrat seinen Garten, während er sich selbst Unrecht tat. Er sagte: "Ich glaube nicht, daß dieser (Garten) jemals zugrunde gehen wird,
وَدَخَلَ جَنَّتَهُۥ وَهُوَ ظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهِۦ قَالَ مَآ أَظُنُّ أَن تَبِيدَ هَٰذِهِۦٓ أَبَدًا
"Nor do I deem that the Hour (of Judgment) will (ever) come: Even if I am brought back to my Lord, I shall surely find (there) something better in exchange."
I think not that the Hour will ever come, and if indeed I am brought back unto my Lord I surely shall find better than this as a resort.
und ich glaube nicht, daß die Stunde (des Gerichts) sich einstellen wird. Und wenn ich zu meinem Herrn zurückgebracht werde, werde ich ganz gewiß etwas Besseres als ihn als Rückzugsort finden."
وَمَآ أَظُنُّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ قَآئِمَةً وَلَئِن رُّدِدتُّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّى لَأَجِدَنَّ خَيْرًا مِّنْهَا مُنقَلَبًا
His companion said to him, in the course of the argument with him: "Dost thou deny Him Who created thee out of dust, then out of a sperm - drop, then fashioned thee into a man?
His comrade, when he (thus) spake with him, exclaimed: Disbelievest thou in Him Who created thee of dust, then of a drop (of seed), and then fashioned thee a man ?
Sein Gefährte sagte zu ihm, während er sich mit ihm unterhielt: "Verleugnest du denn Denjenigen, Der dich aus Erde, hierauf aus einem Samentropfen erschaffen und hierauf dich zu einem Mann geformt hat?
قَالَ لَهُۥ صَاحِبُهُۥ وَهُوَ يُحَاوِرُهُۥٓ أَكَفَرْتَ بِٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكَ مِن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ سَوَّىٰكَ رَجُلًا
"But (I think) for my part that He is Allah, My Lord, and none shall I associate with my Lord.
But He is Allah, my Lord, and I ascribe unto my Lord no partner.
Aber, was mich betrifft: Er, Allah, ist mein Herr, und ich geselle meinem Herrn niemanden bei.
لَّٰكِنَّا۠ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ رَبِّى وَلَآ أُشْرِكُ بِرَبِّىٓ أَحَدًا
"Why didst thou not, as thou wentest into thy garden, say: 'Allah's will (be done)! There is no power but with Allah!' If thou dost see me less than thee in wealth and sons,
If only, when thou enteredst thy garden, thou hadst said: That which Allah willeth (will come to pass)! There is no strength save in Allah! Though thou seest me as less than thee in wealth and children,
Würdest du doch, wenn du deinen Garten betrittst, sagen: ,(Es sei,) was Allah will; es gibt keine Kraft außer durch Allah'! Wenn du auch siehst, daß ich weniger Besitz und Kinder habe als du,
وَلَوْلَآ إِذْ دَخَلْتَ جَنَّتَكَ قُلْتَ مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِٱللَّهِ إِن تَرَنِ أَنَا۠ أَقَلَّ مِنكَ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا
"It may be that my Lord will give me something better than thy garden, and that He will send on thy garden thunderbolts (by way of reckoning) from heaven, making it (but) slippery sand! -
Yet it may be that my Lord will give me better than thy garden, and will send on it a bolt from heaven, and some morning it will be a smooth hillside,
so wird mein Herr mir vielleicht etwas Besseres als deinen Garten geben und über ihn aufeinanderfolgende Strafe vom Himmel senden, so daß er zu schlüpfrigem Erdboden wird,
فَعَسَىٰ رَبِّىٓ أَن يُؤْتِيَنِ خَيْرًا مِّن جَنَّتِكَ وَيُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهَا حُسْبَانًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَتُصْبِحَ صَعِيدًا زَلَقًا
"Or the water of the garden will run off underground so that thou wilt never be able to find it."
Or some morning the water thereof will be lost in the earth so that thou canst not make search for it.
oder daß sein Wasser versickert sein wird, so daß du es nicht mehr wirst ausfindig machen können."
أَوْ يُصْبِحَ مَآؤُهَا غَوْرًا فَلَن تَسْتَطِيعَ لَهُۥ طَلَبًا
So his fruits (and enjoyment) were encompassed (with ruin), and he remained twisting and turning his hands over what he had spent on his property, which had (now) tumbled to pieces to its very foundations, and he could only say, "Woe is me! Would I had never ascribed partners to my Lord and Cherisher!"
And his fruit was beset (with destruction). Then began he to wring his hands for all that he had spent upon it, when (now) it was all ruined on its trellises, and to say: Would that I had ascribed no partner to my Lord!
Seine Früchte wurden ringsum erfaßt. Da begann er, seine Handflächen umzudrehen wegen dessen, was er für ihn ausgegeben hatte, während er wüst in Trümmern lag, und zu sagen: "O hätte ich doch meinem Herrn niemanden beigesellt!"
وَأُحِيطَ بِثَمَرِهِۦ فَأَصْبَحَ يُقَلِّبُ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَىٰ مَآ أَنفَقَ فِيهَا وَهِىَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلَىٰ عُرُوشِهَا وَيَقُولُ يَٰلَيْتَنِى لَمْ أُشْرِكْ بِرَبِّىٓ أَحَدًا
Nor had he numbers to help him against Allah, nor was he able to deliver himself.
And he had no troop of men to help him as against Allah, nor could he save himself.
Und er hatte weder eine Schar, die ihm anstatt Allahs half, noch konnte er sich selbst helfen.
وَلَمْ تَكُن لَّهُۥ فِئَةٌ يَنصُرُونَهُۥ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا كَانَ مُنتَصِرًا
There, the (only) protection comes from Allah, the True One. He is the Best to reward, and the Best to give success.
In this case is protection only from Allah, the True, He is Best for reward, and best for consequence.
In dem Fall gehört (all) die Schutzherrschaft Allah, dem Wahren. Er ist der Beste im Belohnen, und Er verschafft den besten Ausgang.
هُنَالِكَ ٱلْوَلَٰيَةُ لِلَّهِ ٱلْحَقِّ هُوَ خَيْرٌ ثَوَابًا وَخَيْرٌ عُقْبًا
Set forth to them the similitude of the life of this world: It is like the rain which we send down from the skies: the earth's vegetation absorbs it, but soon it becomes dry stubble, which the winds do scatter: it is (only) Allah who prevails over all things.
And coin for them the similitude of the life of the world as water which We send down from the sky, and the vegetation of the earth mingleth with it and then becometh dry twigs that the winds scatter. Allah is able to do all things.
Und präge ihnen das Gleichnis vom diesseitigen Leben. (Es ist) wie Wasser, das Wir vom Himmel hinabkommen lassen, worauf sich damit das Gewächs der Erde vermischt. Dann wird es zu vertrocknetem Zeug, das die Winde verwehen. Und Allah hat ja zu allem völlig die Macht.
وَٱضْرِبْ لَهُم مَّثَلَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا كَمَآءٍ أَنزَلْنَٰهُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَٱخْتَلَطَ بِهِۦ نَبَاتُ ٱلْأَرْضِ فَأَصْبَحَ هَشِيمًا تَذْرُوهُ ٱلرِّيَٰحُ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ مُّقْتَدِرًا
Wealth and sons are allurements of the life of this world: But the things that endure, good deeds, are best in the sight of thy Lord, as rewards, and best as (the foundation for) hopes.
Wealth and children are an ornament of the life of the world. But the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better in respect of hope.
Der Besitz und die Söhne sind der Schmuck des diesseitigen Lebens. Das Bleibende aber, die rechtschaffenen Werke -, sie sind bei deinem Herrn besser hinsichtlich der Belohnung und besser hinsichtlich der Hoffnung.
ٱلْمَالُ وَٱلْبَنُونَ زِينَةُ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْبَٰقِيَٰتُ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتُ خَيْرٌ عِندَ رَبِّكَ ثَوَابًا وَخَيْرٌ أَمَلًا
One Day We shall remove the mountains, and thou wilt see the earth as a level stretch, and We shall gather them, all together, nor shall We leave out any one of them.
And (bethink you of) the Day when we remove the hills and ye see the earth emerging, and We gather them together so as to leave not one of them behind.
Und (gedenke) des Tages, da Wir die Berge versetzen und du die Erde (kahl) hervortreten siehst und Wir sie versammeln, ohne jemanden von ihnen auszulassen,
وَيَوْمَ نُسَيِّرُ ٱلْجِبَالَ وَتَرَى ٱلْأَرْضَ بَارِزَةً وَحَشَرْنَٰهُمْ فَلَمْ نُغَادِرْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدًا
And they will be marshalled before thy Lord in ranks, (with the announcement), "Now have ye come to Us (bare) as We created you first: aye, ye thought We shall not fulfil the appointment made to you to meet (Us)!":
And they are set before thy Lord in ranks (and it is said unto them): Now verily have ye come unto Us as We created you at the first. But ye thought that We had set no tryst for you.
und (da) sie deinem Herrn in Reihen vorgeführt werden: "Nun seid ihr zu Uns gekommen, so wie Wir euch das erste Mal erschaffen haben. Ihr aber habt behauptet, Wir würden für euch keine (letzte) Verabredung festlegen."
وَعُرِضُوا۟ عَلَىٰ رَبِّكَ صَفًّا لَّقَدْ جِئْتُمُونَا كَمَا خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍۭ بَلْ زَعَمْتُمْ أَلَّن نَّجْعَلَ لَكُم مَّوْعِدًا
And the Book (of Deeds) will be placed (before you); and thou wilt see the sinful in great terror because of what is (recorded) therein; they will say, "Ah! woe to us! what a Book is this! It leaves out nothing small or great, but takes account thereof!" They will find all that they did, placed before them: And not one will thy Lord treat with injustice.
And the Book is placed, and thou seest the guilty fearful of that which is therein, and they say: What kind of a Book is this that leaveth not a small thing nor a great thing but hath counted it! And they find all that they did confronting them, and thy Lord wrongeth no - one.
Und das Buch wird hingelegt. Dann siehst du die Übeltäter besorgt wegen dessen, was darin steht. Sie sagen: "O wehe uns! Was ist mit diesem Buch? Es läßt nichts aus, weder klein noch groß, ohne es zu erfassen." Sie finden (alles), was sie taten, gegenwärtig, und dein Herr tut niemandem Unrecht.
وَوُضِعَ ٱلْكِتَٰبُ فَتَرَى ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ مُشْفِقِينَ مِمَّا فِيهِ وَيَقُولُونَ يَٰوَيْلَتَنَا مَالِ هَٰذَا ٱلْكِتَٰبِ لَا يُغَادِرُ صَغِيرَةً وَلَا كَبِيرَةً إِلَّآ أَحْصَىٰهَا وَوَجَدُوا۟ مَا عَمِلُوا۟ حَاضِ
Behold! We said to the angels, "Bow down to Adam": They bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the Jinns, and he broke the Command of his Lord. Will ye then take him and his progeny as protectors rather than Me? And they are enemies to you! Evil would be the exchange for the wrong - doers!
And (remember) when We said unto the angels: Fall prostrate before Adam, and they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. He was of the jinn, so he rebelled against his Lord's command. Will ye choose him and his seed for your protecting friends instead of Me, when they are an enemy unto you ? Calamitous is the exchange for evil - doers.
Und als Wir zu den Engeln sagten: "Werft euch vor Adam nieder." Da warfen sie sich nieder, außer Iblis; er gehörte zu den Ginn. So frevelte er gegen den Befehl seines Herrn. Wollt ihr euch denn ihn und seine Nachkommenschaft zu Schutzherren anstatt Meiner nehmen, wo sie euch doch feind sind? - Ein schlimmer Tausch für die Ungerechten!
وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِءَادَمَ فَسَجَدُوٓا۟ إِلَّآ إِبْلِيسَ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْجِنِّ فَفَسَقَ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِۦٓ أَفَتَتَّخِذُونَهُۥ وَذُرِّيَّتَهُۥٓ أَوْلِيَآءَ مِن دُونِى وَهُمْ لَكُمْ ع
I called them not to witness the creation of the heavens and the earth, nor (even) their own creation: nor is it for helpers such as Me to take as lead (men) astray!
I made them not to witness the creation of the heavens and the earth, nor their own creation; nor choose I misleaders for (My) helpers.
Ich habe sie weder bei der Erschaffung der Himmel und der Erde noch bei ihrer eigenen Erschaffung zu Zeugen genommen. Ich nehme Mir niemals die Irre führenden als Beistand.
مَّآ أَشْهَدتُّهُمْ خَلْقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا خَلْقَ أَنفُسِهِمْ وَمَا كُنتُ مُتَّخِذَ ٱلْمُضِلِّينَ عَضُدًا
One Day He will say, "Call on those whom ye thought to be My partners," and they will call on them, but they will not listen to them; and We shall make for them a place of common perdition.
And (be mindful of) the Day when He will say: Call those partners of Mine whom ye pretended. Then they will cry unto them, but they will not hear their prayer, and We shall set a gulf of doom between them.
Und an dem Tag, da Er sagen wird: "Ruft Meine Teilhaber, die ihr angegeben habt!", werden sie sie anrufen, aber sie werden ihnen nicht antworten. Und Wir werden zwischen ihnen einen Ort der Vernichtung einrichten'.
وَيَوْمَ يَقُولُ نَادُوا۟ شُرَكَآءِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ زَعَمْتُمْ فَدَعَوْهُمْ فَلَمْ يَسْتَجِيبُوا۟ لَهُمْ وَجَعَلْنَا بَيْنَهُم مَّوْبِقًا
And the Sinful shall see the fire and apprehend that they have to fall therein: no means will they find to turn away therefrom.
And the guilty behold the Fire and know that they are about to fall therein, and they find no way of escape thence.
Und die Übeltäter werden das (Höllen)feuer sehen und überzeugt sein, daß sie hineinfallen, und kein Mittel finden, es abzuwenden.
وَرَءَا ٱلْمُجْرِمُونَ ٱلنَّارَ فَظَنُّوٓا۟ أَنَّهُم مُّوَاقِعُوهَا وَلَمْ يَجِدُوا۟ عَنْهَا مَصْرِفًا
We have explained in detail in this Qur'an, for the benefit of mankind, every kind of similitude: but man is, in most things, contentious.
And verily We have displayed for mankind in this Qur'an all manner of similitudes, but man is more than anything contentious.
Und Wir haben ja in diesem Qur'an den Menschen ein jedes Gleichnis verschiedenartig dargelegt; aber der Mensch ist von allen Wesen am streitsüchtigsten.
وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَا فِى هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانِ لِلنَّاسِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٍ وَكَانَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَكْثَرَ شَىْءٍ جَدَلًا
And what is there to keep back men from believing, now that Guidance has come to them, nor from praying for forgiveness from their Lord, but that (they ask that) the ways of the ancients be repeated with them, or the Wrath be brought to them face to face?
And naught hindereth mankind from believing when the guidance cometh unto them, and from asking forgiveness of their Lord unless (it be that they wish) that the judgment of the men of old should come upon them or (that) they should be confronted with the Doom.
Und nichts anderes hielt die Menschen davon ab, zu glauben, als die Rechtleitung zu ihnen kam, und ihren Herrn um Vergebung zu bitten, außer (ihrer Forderung), daß an ihnen nach der Gesetzmäßigkeit der Früheren verfahren werde oder daß die Strafe vor ihren Augen über sie komme.
وَمَا مَنَعَ ٱلنَّاسَ أَن يُؤْمِنُوٓا۟ إِذْ جَآءَهُمُ ٱلْهُدَىٰ وَيَسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ رَبَّهُمْ إِلَّآ أَن تَأْتِيَهُمْ سُنَّةُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ أَوْ يَأْتِيَهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ قُبُلًا
We only send the messengers to give Glad Tidings and to give warnings: But the unbelievers dispute with vain argument, in order therewith to weaken the truth, and they treat My Signs as a jest, as also the fact that they are warned!
We send not the messengers save as bearers of good news and warners. Those who disbelieve contend with falsehood in order to refute the Truth thereby. And they take Our revelations and that wherewith they are threatened as a jest.
Wir senden die Gesandten nur als Verkünder froher Botschaft und als Überbringer von Warnungen. Aber diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, streiten mit dem Falschen, um damit die Wahrheit zu widerlegen. Und sie machen sich über Meine Zeichen und das, womit sie gewarnt wurden, lustig.
وَمَا نُرْسِلُ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ إِلَّا مُبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنذِرِينَ وَيُجَٰدِلُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِٱلْبَٰطِلِ لِيُدْحِضُوا۟ بِهِ ٱلْحَقَّ وَٱتَّخَذُوٓا۟ ءَايَٰتِى وَمَآ أُنذِرُوا۟ هُزُوًا
And who doth more wrong than one who is reminded of the Signs of his Lord, but turns away from them, forgetting the (deeds) which his hands have sent forth? Verily We have set veils over their hearts lest they should understand this, and over their ears, deafness, if thou callest them to guidance, even then will they never accept guidance.
And who doth greater wrong than he who hath been reminded of the revelations of his Lord, yet turneth away from them and forgetteth what his hands send forward (to the Judgment) ? Lo! on their hearts We have placed coverings so that they understand not, and in their ears a deafness. And though thou call them to the guidance, in that case they can never be led aright.
Wer ist denn ungerechter als jemand, der mit den Zeichen seines Herrn ermahnt wird und sich dann von ihnen abwendet und vergißt, was seine Hände vorausgeschickt haben. Gewiß, Wir haben auf ihre Herzen Hüllen gelegt, so daß sie ihn nicht verstehen, und in ihre Ohren Schwerhörigkeit; und wenn du sie zur Rechtleitung rufst, dann werden sie sich also niemals rechtleiten lassen.
وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّن ذُكِّرَ بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِۦ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهَا وَنَسِىَ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفْقَهُوهُ وَفِىٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَقْرًا وَإِن تَدْعُهُمْ
But your Lord is Most forgiving, full of Mercy. If He were to call them (at once) to account for what they have earned, then surely He would have hastened their punishment: but they have their appointed time, beyond which they will find no refuge.
Thy Lord is the Forgiver, Full of Mercy. If He took them to task (now) for what they earn, He would hasten on the doom for them; but theirs is an appointed term from which they will find no escape.
Und dein Herr ist der Allvergebende, voll der Barmherzigkeit. Wenn Er sie für das belangen würde, was sie erworben haben, würde Er für sie die Strafe wahrlich beschleunigen. Aber sie haben eine Verabredung, vor der sie keine Zuflucht finden werden.
وَرَبُّكَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ذُو ٱلرَّحْمَةِ لَوْ يُؤَاخِذُهُم بِمَا كَسَبُوا۟ لَعَجَّلَ لَهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابَ بَل لَّهُم مَّوْعِدٌ لَّن يَجِدُوا۟ مِن دُونِهِۦ مَوْئِلًا
Such were the populations we destroyed when they committed iniquities; but we fixed an appointed time for their destruction.
And (all) those townships! We destroyed them when they did wrong, and We appointed a fixed time for their destruction.
Und diese Städte da vernichteten Wir, als sie Unrecht taten. Und Wir haben für ihre Vernichtung eine Verabredung festgelegt.
وَتِلْكَ ٱلْقُرَىٰٓ أَهْلَكْنَٰهُمْ لَمَّا ظَلَمُوا۟ وَجَعَلْنَا لِمَهْلِكِهِم مَّوْعِدًا
Behold, Moses said to his attendant, "I will not give up until I reach the junction of the two seas or (until) I spend years and years in travel."
And when Moses said unto his servant: I will not give up until I reach the point where the two rivers meet, though I march on for ages.
Und als Musa zu seinem Burschen sagte: "Ich lasse nicht ab, bis ich die Stelle erreicht habe, an der die Meere zusammenkommen, und sollte ich lange Zeit weiter gehen."
وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِفَتَىٰهُ لَآ أَبْرَحُ حَتَّىٰٓ أَبْلُغَ مَجْمَعَ ٱلْبَحْرَيْنِ أَوْ أَمْضِىَ حُقُبًا
But when they reached the Junction, they forgot (about) their Fish, which took its course through the sea (straight) as in a tunnel.
And when they reached the point where the two met, they forgot their fish, and it took its way into the waters, being free.
Als sie die Stelle erreicht hatten, an der sie zusammenkommen, vergaßen sie ihren Fisch, so nahm er seinen Weg im Meer, (auf und davon) schwimmend.
فَلَمَّا بَلَغَا مَجْمَعَ بَيْنِهِمَا نَسِيَا حُوتَهُمَا فَٱتَّخَذَ سَبِيلَهُۥ فِى ٱلْبَحْرِ سَرَبًا
When they had passed on (some distance), Moses said to his attendant: "Bring us our early meal; truly we have suffered much fatigue at this (stage of) our journey."
And when they had gone further, he said unto his servant: Bring us our breakfast. Verily we have found fatigue in this our journey.
Als sie vorbeigegangen waren, sagte er zu seinem Burschen: "Bringe uns unser Mittagessen. Wir haben ja durch diese unsere Reise (viel) Mühsal erlitten."
فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَا قَالَ لِفَتَىٰهُ ءَاتِنَا غَدَآءَنَا لَقَدْ لَقِينَا مِن سَفَرِنَا هَٰذَا نَصَبًا
He replied: "Sawest thou (what happened) when we betook ourselves to the rock? I did indeed forget (about) the Fish: none but Satan made me forget to tell (you) about it: it took its course through the sea in a marvellous way!"
He said: Didst thou see, when we took refuge on the rock, and I forgot the fish - and none but Satan caused me to forget to mention it - it took its way into the waters by a marvel.
Er sagte: "Siehst du! Als wir beim Felsen Rast gemacht haben, gewiß, da habe ich den Fisch vergessen. Und es ließ mich ihn nur der Satan vergessen, ihn (dir) zu erwähnen. Und er nahm seinen Weg im Meer auf wunderliche Weise."
قَالَ أَرَءَيْتَ إِذْ أَوَيْنَآ إِلَى ٱلصَّخْرَةِ فَإِنِّى نَسِيتُ ٱلْحُوتَ وَمَآ أَنسَىٰنِيهُ إِلَّا ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَهُۥ وَٱتَّخَذَ سَبِيلَهُۥ فِى ٱلْبَحْرِ عَجَبًا
Moses said: "That was what we were seeking after:" So they went back on their footsteps, following (the path they had come).
He said: This is that which we have been seeking. So they retraced their steps again.
Er sagte: "Das ist es, was wir suchten." Da kehrten sie beide zurück, indem sie ihren eigenen Spuren folgten.
قَالَ ذَٰلِكَ مَا كُنَّا نَبْغِ فَٱرْتَدَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَارِهِمَا قَصَصًا
So they found one of Our servants, on whom We had bestowed Mercy from Ourselves and whom We had taught knowledge from Our own Presence.
Then found they one of Our slaves, unto whom We had given mercy from Us, and had taught him knowledge from Our presence.
Sie trafen einen von Unseren Dienern, dem Wir Barmherzigkeit von Uns aus hatten zukommen lassen und den Wir Wissen von Uns her gelehrt hatten.
فَوَجَدَا عَبْدًا مِّنْ عِبَادِنَآ ءَاتَيْنَٰهُ رَحْمَةً مِّنْ عِندِنَا وَعَلَّمْنَٰهُ مِن لَّدُنَّا عِلْمًا
Moses said to him: "May I follow thee, on the footing that thou teach me something of the (Higher) Truth which thou hast been taught?"
Moses said unto him: May I follow thee, to the end that thou mayst teach me right conduct of that which thou hast been taught ?
Musa sagte zu ihm: "Darf ich dir folgen, auf daß du mich von dem lehrst, was dir an Besonnenheit gelehrt worden ist?"
قَالَ لَهُۥ مُوسَىٰ هَلْ أَتَّبِعُكَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن تُعَلِّمَنِ مِمَّا عُلِّمْتَ رُشْدًا
(The other) said: "Verily thou wilt not be able to have patience with me!"
He said: Lo! thou canst not bear with me.
Er sagte: "Du wirst (es) bei mir nicht aushalten können.
قَالَ إِنَّكَ لَن تَسْتَطِيعَ مَعِىَ صَبْرًا
"And how canst thou have patience about things about which thy understanding is not complete?"
How canst thou bear with that whereof thou canst not compass any knowledge ?
Wie willst du das auch aushalten, wovon du keine umfassende Kenntnis hast?"
وَكَيْفَ تَصْبِرُ عَلَىٰ مَا لَمْ تُحِطْ بِهِۦ خُبْرًا
Moses said: "Thou wilt find me, if Allah so will, (truly) patient: nor shall I disobey thee in aught."
He said: Allah willing, thou shalt find me patient and I shall not in aught gainsay thee.
Er sagte: "Du wirst mich, wenn Allah will, standhaft finden, und ich werde mich keinem Befehl von dir widersetzen."
قَالَ سَتَجِدُنِىٓ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ صَابِرًا وَلَآ أَعْصِى لَكَ أَمْرًا
The other said: "If then thou wouldst follow me, ask me no questions about anything until I myself speak to thee concerning it."
He said: Well, if thou go with me, ask me not concerning aught till I myself make mention of it unto thee.
Er sagte: "Wenn du mir denn folg(en will)st, dann frage mich nach nichts, bis ich selbst es dir gegenüber zuerst erwähne."
قَالَ فَإِنِ ٱتَّبَعْتَنِى فَلَا تَسْـَٔلْنِى عَن شَىْءٍ حَتَّىٰٓ أُحْدِثَ لَكَ مِنْهُ ذِكْرًا
So they both proceeded: until, when they were in the boat, he scuttled it. Said Moses: "Hast thou scuttled it in order to drown those in it? Truly a strange thing hast thou done!"
So they twain set out till, when they were in the ship, he made a hole therein. (Moses) said: Hast thou made a hole therein to drown the folk thereof ? Thou verily hast done a dreadful thing.
Da zogen sie beide los, bis, als sie ein Schiff bestiegen, er darin ein Loch machte. Er (Musa) sagte: "Hast du ein Loch darin gemacht, um seine Besatzung ertrinken zu lassen? Du hast da ja eine grauenhafte Sache begangen."
فَٱنطَلَقَا حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا رَكِبَا فِى ٱلسَّفِينَةِ خَرَقَهَا قَالَ أَخَرَقْتَهَا لِتُغْرِقَ أَهْلَهَا لَقَدْ جِئْتَ شَيْـًٔا إِمْرًا
He answered: "Did I not tell thee that thou canst have no patience with me?"
He said: Did I not tell thee that thou couldst not bear with me ?
Er sagte: "Habe ich nicht gesagt, daß du (es) bei mir nicht wirst aushalten können?"
قَالَ أَلَمْ أَقُلْ إِنَّكَ لَن تَسْتَطِيعَ مَعِىَ صَبْرًا
Moses said: "Rebuke me not for forgetting, nor grieve me by raising difficulties in my case."
(Moses) said: Be not wroth with me that I forgot, and be not hard upon me for my fault.
Er (Musa) sagte: "Belange mich nicht dafür, daß ich vergessen habe, und bedrücke mich in meiner Angelegenheit nicht mit einer Erschwernis."
قَالَ لَا تُؤَاخِذْنِى بِمَا نَسِيتُ وَلَا تُرْهِقْنِى مِنْ أَمْرِى عُسْرًا
Then they proceeded: until, when they met a young man, he slew him. Moses said: "Hast thou slain an innocent person who had slain none? Truly a foul (unheard of) thing hast thou done!"
So they twain journeyed on till, when they met a lad, he slew him. (Moses) said: What! Hast thou slain an innocent soul who hath slain no man ? Verily thou hast done a horrid thing.
Da zogen sie beide weiter, bis, als sie dann einen Jungen trafen, er ihn tötete. Er (Musa) sagte: "Hast du eine unschuldige Seele getötet (und zwar) nicht (als Wiedervergeltung) für eine (andere) Seele? Du hast da ja eine verwerfliche Sache begangen."
فَٱنطَلَقَا حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا لَقِيَا غُلَٰمًا فَقَتَلَهُۥ قَالَ أَقَتَلْتَ نَفْسًا زَكِيَّةًۢ بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ لَّقَدْ جِئْتَ شَيْـًٔا نُّكْرًا
He answered: "Did I not tell thee that thou canst have no patience with me?"
He said: Did I not tell thee that thou couldst not bear with me ?
Er sagte: "Habe ich dir nicht gesagt, daß du (es) bei mir nicht wirst aushalten können?"
قَالَ أَلَمْ أَقُل لَّكَ إِنَّكَ لَن تَسْتَطِيعَ مَعِىَ صَبْرًا
(Moses) said: "If ever I ask thee about anything after this, keep me not in thy company: then wouldst thou have received (full) excuse from my side."
(Moses) said: If I ask thee after this concerning aught, keep not company with me. Thou hast received an excuse from me.
Er (Musa) sagte: "Wenn ich dich danach (noch einmal) nach irgend etwas frage, dann lasse mich dich nicht mehr begleiten. Dich trifft in Bezug auf mich kein Tadel.1"
قَالَ إِن سَأَلْتُكَ عَن شَىْءٍۭ بَعْدَهَا فَلَا تُصَٰحِبْنِى قَدْ بَلَغْتَ مِن لَّدُنِّى عُذْرًا
Then they proceeded: until, when they came to the inhabitants of a town, they asked them for food, but they refused them hospitality. They found there a wall on the point of falling down, but he set it up straight. (Moses) said: "If thou hadst wished, surely thou couldst have exacted some recompense for it!"
So they twain journeyed on till, when they came unto the folk of a certain township, they asked its folk for food, but they refused to make them guests. And they found therein a wall upon the point of falling into ruin, and he repaired it. (Moses) said: If thou hadst wished, thou couldst have taken payment for it.
Da zogen sie beide weiter, bis, als sie dann zu den Bewohnern einer Stadt kamen, sie ihre Bewohner um etwas zu essen baten; diese aber weigerten sich, sie gastlich aufzunehmen. Da fanden sie in ihr eine Mauer, die einzustürzen drohte, und so richtete er sie auf. Er (Musa) sagte: "Wenn du wolltest, hättest du dafür wahrlich Lohn nehmen können."
فَٱنطَلَقَا حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَتَيَآ أَهْلَ قَرْيَةٍ ٱسْتَطْعَمَآ أَهْلَهَا فَأَبَوْا۟ أَن يُضَيِّفُوهُمَا فَوَجَدَا فِيهَا جِدَارًا يُرِيدُ أَن يَنقَضَّ فَأَقَامَهُۥ قَالَ لَوْ شِئْتَ لَتَّخَذْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَ
He answered: "This is the parting between me and thee: now will I tell thee the interpretation of (those things) over which thou wast unable to hold patience.
He said: This is the parting between thee and me! I will announce unto thee the interpretation of that thou couldst not bear with patience.
Er sagte: "Das ist die Trennung zwischen mir und dir. Ich werde dir jetzt die Deutung dessen kundtun, was du nicht aushalten konntest.
قَالَ هَٰذَا فِرَاقُ بَيْنِى وَبَيْنِكَ سَأُنَبِّئُكَ بِتَأْوِيلِ مَا لَمْ تَسْتَطِع عَّلَيْهِ صَبْرًا
"As for the boat, it belonged to certain men in dire want: they plied on the water: I but wished to render it unserviceable, for there was after them a certain king who seized on every boat by force.
As for the ship, it belonged to poor people working on the river, and I wished to mar it, for there was a king behind them who is taking every ship by force.
Was das Schiff angeht, so gehörte es Armen, die auf dem Meer arbeiteten. Ich wollte es schadhaft machen, denn ein König war hinter ihnen her, der jedes Schiff mit Gewalt wegnahm.
أَمَّا ٱلسَّفِينَةُ فَكَانَتْ لِمَسَٰكِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ فِى ٱلْبَحْرِ فَأَرَدتُّ أَنْ أَعِيبَهَا وَكَانَ وَرَآءَهُم مَّلِكٌ يَأْخُذُ كُلَّ سَفِينَةٍ غَصْبًا
"As for the youth, his parents were people of Faith, and we feared that he would grieve them by obstinate rebellion and ingratitude (to Allah and man).
And as for the lad, his parents were believers and we feared lest he should oppress them by rebellion and disbelief.
Was den Jungen angeht, so waren seine Eltern gläubige (Menschen). Da fürchteten wir, daß er sie durch (seine) Auflehnung und durch (seinen) Unglauben bedrücken würde.
وَأَمَّا ٱلْغُلَٰمُ فَكَانَ أَبَوَاهُ مُؤْمِنَيْنِ فَخَشِينَآ أَن يُرْهِقَهُمَا طُغْيَٰنًا وَكُفْرًا
"So we desired that their Lord would give them in exchange (a son) better in purity (of conduct) and closer in affection.
And we intended that their Lord should change him for them for one better in purity and nearer to mercy.
So wollten wir, daß ihr Herr ihnen zum Tausch einen gebe, - besser als er an Lauterkeit und näher kommend an Güte.
فَأَرَدْنَآ أَن يُبْدِلَهُمَا رَبُّهُمَا خَيْرًا مِّنْهُ زَكَوٰةً وَأَقْرَبَ رُحْمًا
"As for the wall, it belonged to two youths, orphans, in the Town; there was, beneath it, a buried treasure, to which they were entitled: their father had been a righteous man: So thy Lord desired that they should attain their age of full strength and get out their treasure - a mercy (and favour) from thy Lord. I did it not of my own accord. Such is the interpretation of (those things) over which thou wast unable to hold patience."
And as for the wall, it belonged to two orphan boys in the city, and there was beneath it a treasure belonging to them, and their father had been righteous, and thy Lord intended that they should come to their full strength and should bring forth their treasure as a mercy from their Lord; and I did it not upon my own command. Such is the interpretation of that wherewith thou couldst not bear.
Was aber die Mauer angeht, so gehörte sie zwei Waisenjungen in der Stadt, und unter ihr befand sich ein für sie bestimmter Schatz. Ihr Vater war rechtschaffen, und da wollte dein Herr, daß sie (erst) ihre Vollreife erlangen und (dann) ihren Schatz hervorholen - aus Barmherzigkeit von deinem Herrn. Ich tat es ja nicht aus eigenem Ermessen. Das ist die Deutung dessen, was du nicht aushalten konntest."
وَأَمَّا ٱلْجِدَارُ فَكَانَ لِغُلَٰمَيْنِ يَتِيمَيْنِ فِى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَكَانَ تَحْتَهُۥ كَنزٌ لَّهُمَا وَكَانَ أَبُوهُمَا صَٰلِحًا فَأَرَادَ رَبُّكَ أَن يَبْلُغَآ أَشُدَّهُمَا وَيَسْتَخْرِجَا كَنزَهُمَا رَحْمَةً
They ask thee concerning Zul - qarnain. Say, "I will rehearse to you something of his story."
They will ask thee of Dhu'l - Qarneyn. Say: I shall recite unto you a remembrance of him.
Und sie fragen dich nach Du 'l-Qarnain. Sag: Ich werde euch über ihn eine Geschichte verlesen.
وَيَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَن ذِى ٱلْقَرْنَيْنِ قُلْ سَأَتْلُوا۟ عَلَيْكُم مِّنْهُ ذِكْرًا
Verily We established his power on earth, and We gave him the ways and the means to all ends.
Lo! We made him strong in the land and gave him unto every thing a road.
Wir verliehen ihm auf der Erde eine feste Stellung und eröffneten ihm zu allem einen Weg.
إِنَّا مَكَّنَّا لَهُۥ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُ مِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ سَبَبًا
One (such) way he followed,
And he followed a road
Da verfolgte er einen Weg,
فَأَتْبَعَ سَبَبًا
Until, when he reached the setting of the sun, he found it set in a spring of murky water: Near it he found a People: We said: "O Zul - qarnain! (thou hast authority,) either to punish them, or to treat them with kindness."
Till, when he reached the setting - place of the sun, he found it setting in a muddy spring, and found a people thereabout. We said: O Dhu'l - Qarneyn! Either punish or show them kindness.
bis, als er den Ort des Sonnenuntergangs erreichte, er fand, daß sie in einer schlammigen Quelle unterging, und er fand bei ihr ein Volk. Wir sagten: "O Du '1Qarnain, entweder strafst du (sie), oder du behandelst sie mit Güte."
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا بَلَغَ مَغْرِبَ ٱلشَّمْسِ وَجَدَهَا تَغْرُبُ فِى عَيْنٍ حَمِئَةٍ وَوَجَدَ عِندَهَا قَوْمًا قُلْنَا يَٰذَا ٱلْقَرْنَيْنِ إِمَّآ أَن تُعَذِّبَ وَإِمَّآ أَن تَتَّخِذَ فِيهِمْ حُسْنًا
He said: "Whoever doth wrong, him shall we punish; then shall he be sent back to his Lord; and He will punish him with a punishment unheard - of (before).
He said: As for him who doeth wrong, we shall punish him, and then he will be brought back unto his Lord, Who will punish him with awful punishment!
Er sagte: "Was nun jemanden angeht, der Unrecht tut, so werden wir ihn strafen; hierauf wird er zu seinem Herrn zurückgebracht, und Er straft ihn dann mit entsetzlicher Strafe.
قَالَ أَمَّا مَن ظَلَمَ فَسَوْفَ نُعَذِّبُهُۥ ثُمَّ يُرَدُّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ فَيُعَذِّبُهُۥ عَذَابًا نُّكْرًا
"But whoever believes, and works righteousness, - he shall have a goodly reward, and easy will be his task as We order it by our Command."
But as for him who believeth and doeth right, good will be his reward, and We shall speak unto him a mild command.
Was aber jemanden angeht, der glaubt und rechtschaffen handelt, für den wird es als Lohn das Beste geben, und Wir werden ihm von unserem Befehl etwas sagen, was Erleichterung bringt."
وَأَمَّا مَنْ ءَامَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَٰلِحًا فَلَهُۥ جَزَآءً ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ وَسَنَقُولُ لَهُۥ مِنْ أَمْرِنَا يُسْرًا
Then followed he (another) way,
Then he followed a road
Hierauf verfolgte er einen Weg,
ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَ سَبَبًا
Until, when he came to the rising of the sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had provided no covering protection against the sun.
Till, when he reached the rising - place of the sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had appointed no shelter therefrom.
bis, als er den Ort des Sonnenaufgangs erreichte, er fand, daß sie über einem Volk aufgeht, denen Wir keine Deckung vor ihr gegeben hatten.
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا بَلَغَ مَطْلِعَ ٱلشَّمْسِ وَجَدَهَا تَطْلُعُ عَلَىٰ قَوْمٍ لَّمْ نَجْعَل لَّهُم مِّن دُونِهَا سِتْرًا
(He left them) as they were: We completely understood what was before him.
So (it was). And We knew all concerning him.
So war es. Und Wir haben ja umfassende Kenntnis von dem, was ihn betrifft.
كَذَٰلِكَ وَقَدْ أَحَطْنَا بِمَا لَدَيْهِ خُبْرًا
Then followed he (another) way,
Then he followed a road
Hierauf verfolgte er einen Weg,
ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَ سَبَبًا
Until, when he reached (a tract) between two mountains, he found, beneath them, a people who scarcely understood a word.
Till, when he came between the two mountains, he found upon their hither side a folk that scarce could understand a saying.
bis, als er den Ort zwischen den beiden Bergen erreichte, er diesseits von ihnen ein Volk fand, das beinahe kein Wort verstand.
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا بَلَغَ بَيْنَ ٱلسَّدَّيْنِ وَجَدَ مِن دُونِهِمَا قَوْمًا لَّا يَكَادُونَ يَفْقَهُونَ قَوْلًا
They said: "O Zul - qarnain! the Gog and Magog (People) do great mischief on earth: shall we then render thee tribute in order that thou mightest erect a barrier between us and them?
They said: O Dhu'l - Qarneyn! Lo! Gog and Magog are spoiling the land. So may we pay thee tribute on condition that thou set a barrier between us and them ?
Sie sagten: "O Du '1-Qarnain, Ya'gug und Ma'gug stiften Unheil auf der Erde. Sollen wir dir eine Gebühr dafür aussetzen, daß du zwischen uns und ihnen eine Sperrmauer errichtest?"
قَالُوا۟ يَٰذَا ٱلْقَرْنَيْنِ إِنَّ يَأْجُوجَ وَمَأْجُوجَ مُفْسِدُونَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ فَهَلْ نَجْعَلُ لَكَ خَرْجًا عَلَىٰٓ أَن تَجْعَلَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُمْ سَدًّا
He said: "(The power) in which my Lord has established me is better (than tribute): Help me therefore with strength (and labour): I will erect a strong barrier between you and them:
He said: That wherein my Lord hath established me is better (than your tribute). Do but help me with strength (of men), I will set between you and them a bank.
Er sagte: "Was mir mein Herr an fester Stellung verliehen hat, ist besser (als eure Gebühr). Doch helft mir mit (eurer Arbeitskraft, damit ich zwischen euch und ihnen einen aufgeschütteten Wall errichte.
قَالَ مَا مَكَّنِّى فِيهِ رَبِّى خَيْرٌ فَأَعِينُونِى بِقُوَّةٍ أَجْعَلْ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَهُمْ رَدْمًا
"Bring me blocks of iron." At length, when he had filled up the space between the two steep mountain - sides, He said, "Blow (with your bellows)" Then, when he had made it (red) as fire, he said: "Bring me, that I may pour over it, molten lead."
Give me pieces of iron - till, when he had levelled up (the gap) between the cliffs, he said: Blow! - till, when he had made it a fire, he said: Bring me molten copper to pour thereon.
Bringt mir die Eisenstücke." Als er nun zwischen den beiden Berghängen gleich hoch (aufgeschüttet) hatte, sagte er: "Blast (jetzt)." Als er es zum Glühen gebracht hatte, sagte er: "Bringt mir, damit ich (es) darüber gieße, geschmolzenes Kupfer."
ءَاتُونِى زُبَرَ ٱلْحَدِيدِ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا سَاوَىٰ بَيْنَ ٱلصَّدَفَيْنِ قَالَ ٱنفُخُوا۟ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَعَلَهُۥ نَارًا قَالَ ءَاتُونِىٓ أُفْرِغْ عَلَيْهِ قِطْرًا
Thus were they made powerless to scale it or to dig through it.
And (Gog and Magog) were not able to surmount, nor could they pierce (it).
So konnten sie ihn weder überwinden, noch konnten sie ihn durchbrechen.
فَمَا ٱسْطَٰعُوٓا۟ أَن يَظْهَرُوهُ وَمَا ٱسْتَطَٰعُوا۟ لَهُۥ نَقْبًا
He said: "This is a mercy from my Lord: But when the promise of my Lord comes to pass, He will make it into dust; and the promise of my Lord is true."
He said: This is a mercy from my Lord; but when the promise of my Lord cometh to pass, He will lay it low, for the promise of my Lord is true.
Er sagte: "Das ist eine Barmherzigkeit von meinem Herrn. Wenn dann das Versprechen meines Herrn eintrifft, läßt Er ihn in sich zusammensinken; und das Versprechen meines Herrn ist wahr."
قَالَ هَٰذَا رَحْمَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّى فَإِذَا جَآءَ وَعْدُ رَبِّى جَعَلَهُۥ دَكَّآءَ وَكَانَ وَعْدُ رَبِّى حَقًّا
On that day We shall leave them to surge like waves on one another: the trumpet will be blown, and We shall collect them all together.
And on that day we shall let some of them surge against others, and the Trumpet will be blown. Then We shall gather them together in one gathering.
Wir lassen die einen von ihnen an jenem Tag wie Wogen unter die anderen geraten, und es wird ins Horn geblasen. Dann versammeln Wir sie vollständig.
وَتَرَكْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَمُوجُ فِى بَعْضٍ وَنُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَجَمَعْنَٰهُمْ جَمْعًا
And We shall present Hell that day for Unbelievers to see, all spread out, -
On that day we shall present hell to the disbelievers, plain to view,
Und Wir führen die Hölle den Ungläubigen an jenem Tag in aller Deutlichkeit vor,
وَعَرَضْنَا جَهَنَّمَ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْكَٰفِرِينَ عَرْضًا
(Unbelievers) whose eyes had been under a veil from remembrance of Me, and who had been unable even to hear.
Those whose eyes were hoodwinked from My reminder, and who could not bear to hear.
(ihnen,) deren Augen vor Meiner Mahnung (wie) unter einer Decke lagen und die (auch) nicht hören konnten.
ٱلَّذِينَ كَانَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمْ فِى غِطَآءٍ عَن ذِكْرِى وَكَانُوا۟ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ سَمْعًا
Do the Unbelievers think that they can take My servants as protectors besides Me? Verily We have prepared Hell for the Unbelievers for (their) entertainment.
Do the disbelievers reckon that they can choose My bondmen as protecting friends beside Me ? Lo! We have prepared hell as a welcome for the disbelievers.
Meinen denn diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, daß sie sich Meine Diener anstatt Meiner zu Schutzherren nehmen (können)? Gewiß, Wir haben die Hölle den Ungläubigen zur gastlichen Aufnahme bereitet.
أَفَحَسِبَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ أَن يَتَّخِذُوا۟ عِبَادِى مِن دُونِىٓ أَوْلِيَآءَ إِنَّآ أَعْتَدْنَا جَهَنَّمَ لِلْكَٰفِرِينَ نُزُلًا
Say: "Shall we tell you of those who lose most in respect of their deeds? -
Say: Shall We inform you who will be the greatest losers by their works ?
Sag: Sollen Wir euch Kunde geben von denjenigen, die an ihren Werken am meisten verlieren,
قُلْ هَلْ نُنَبِّئُكُم بِٱلْأَخْسَرِينَ أَعْمَٰلًا
"Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life, while they thought that they were acquiring good by their works?"
Those whose effort goeth astray in the life of the world, and yet they reckon that they do good work.
deren Bemühen im diesseitigen Leben fehlgeht, während sie meinen, daß sie gut handeln würden?
ٱلَّذِينَ ضَلَّ سَعْيُهُمْ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَهُمْ يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُمْ يُحْسِنُونَ صُنْعًا
They are those who deny the Signs of their Lord and the fact of their having to meet Him (in the Hereafter): vain will be their works, nor shall We, on the Day of Judgment, give them any weight.
Those are they who disbelieve in the revelations of their Lord and in the meeting with Him. Therefor their works are vain, and on the Day of Resurrection We assign no weight to them.
Das sind diejenigen, die die Zeichen ihres Herrn und die Begegnung mit Ihm leugnen. So werden ihre Werke hinfällig, und so werden Wir ihnen am Tag der Auferstehung kein Gewicht beimessen.
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَلِقَآئِهِۦ فَحَبِطَتْ أَعْمَٰلُهُمْ فَلَا نُقِيمُ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ وَزْنًا
That is their reward, Hell, because they rejected Faith, and took My Signs and My Messengers by way of jest.
That is their reward: hell, because they disbelieved, and made a jest of Our revelations and Our messengers.
Das ist ihr Lohn - die Hölle - dafür, daß sie ungläubig waren und sich über Meine Zeichen und Meine Gesandten lustig machten.
ذَٰلِكَ جَزَآؤُهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ بِمَا كَفَرُوا۟ وَٱتَّخَذُوٓا۟ ءَايَٰتِى وَرُسُلِى هُزُوًا
As to those who believe and work righteous deeds, they have, for their entertainment, the Gardens of Paradise,
Lo! those who believe and do good works, theirs are the Gardens of Paradise for welcome,
Gewiß, für diejenigen, die glauben und rechtschaffene Werke tun, wird es die Gärten des Paradieses zur gastlichen Aufnahme geben,
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَنَّٰتُ ٱلْفِرْدَوْسِ نُزُلًا
Wherein they shall dwell (for aye): no change will they wish for from them.
Wherein they will abide, with no desire to be removed from thence.
ewig darin zu bleiben, und sie werden nicht begehren, davon wegzugehen'.
خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا لَا يَبْغُونَ عَنْهَا حِوَلًا
Say: "If the ocean were ink (wherewith to write out) the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted than would the words of my Lord, even if we added another ocean like it, for its aid."
Say: Though the sea became ink for the Words of my Lord, verily the sea would be used up before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even though We brought the like thereof to help.
Sag: Wenn das Meer Tinte für die Worte meines Herrn wäre, würde das Meer wahrlich zu Ende gehen, bevor die Worte meines Herrn zu Ende gingen, auch wenn Wir als Nachschub noch einmal seinesgleichen hinzubrächten.
قُل لَّوْ كَانَ ٱلْبَحْرُ مِدَادًا لِّكَلِمَٰتِ رَبِّى لَنَفِدَ ٱلْبَحْرُ قَبْلَ أَن تَنفَدَ كَلِمَٰتُ رَبِّى وَلَوْ جِئْنَا بِمِثْلِهِۦ مَدَدًا
Say: "I am but a man like yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your Allah is one Allah: whoever expects to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness, and, in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as partner.
Say: I am only a mortal like you. My Lord inspireth in me that your God is only One God. And whoever hopeth for the meeting with his Lord, let him do righteous work, and make none sharer of the worship due unto his Lord.
Sag: Gewiß, ich bin ja nur ein menschliches Wesen gleich euch; mir wird (als Offenbarung) eingegeben, daß euer Gott ein Einziger Gott ist. Wer nun auf die Begegnung mit seinem Herrn hofft, der soll rechtschaffen handeln und beim Dienst an seinem Herrn (Ihm) niemanden beigesellen.
قُلْ إِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يُوحَىٰٓ إِلَىَّ أَنَّمَآ إِلَٰهُكُمْ إِلَٰهٌ وَٰحِدٌ فَمَن كَانَ يَرْجُوا۟ لِقَآءَ رَبِّهِۦ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَٰلِحًا وَلَا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِۦٓ أَحَدً
