We sent it down during a Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).
Surely We revealed it on a blessed night surely We are ever warning - -
Wir haben es wahrlich in einer gesegneten Nacht herabgesandt - Wir haben ja (die Menschen) immer wieder gewarnt -,
إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَٰهُ فِى لَيْلَةٍ مُّبَٰرَكَةٍ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ
In the (Night) is made distinct every affair of wisdom,
Therein every wise affair is made distinct,
in der jede weise Angelegenheit einzeln entschieden wird
فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations),
A command from Us; surely We are the senders (of apostles),

أَمْرًا مِّنْ عِندِنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ
As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (all things);
A mercy from your Lord, surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing,

Yet they play about in doubt.
Nay, they are in doubt, they sport.
Aber nein! Sie sind im Zweifel und treiben ihr Spiel.
بَلْ هُمْ فِى شَكٍّ يَلْعَبُونَ
Then watch thou for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke (or mist) plainly visible,
Therefore keep waiting for the day when the heaven shall bring an evident smoke,
So erwarte den Tag, an dem der Himmel deutlichen Rauch hervorbringt,
فَٱرْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِى ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُّبِينٍ
Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.
That shall overtake men; this is a painful punishment.

(They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"
Our Lord! remove from us the punishment; surely we are believers.
Unser Herr, nimm die Strafe von uns hinweg; wir sind (jetzt) ja gläubig.
رَّبَّنَا ٱكْشِفْ عَنَّا ٱلْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ
How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them, -
How shall they be reminded, and there came to them an Apostle making clear (the truth),
Wie soll ihnen (jetzt) die Selbstbesinnung nützen, wo bereits ein deutlicher Gesandter zu ihnen kam,
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ وَقَدْ جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مُّبِينٌ
Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"
Yet they turned their backs on him and said: One taught (by others), a madman.
sie sich hierauf aber von ihm abkehrten und sagten: "Einer, dem vorgesagt wird, ein Besessener"?
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا۟ عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا۟ مُعَلَّمٌ مَّجْنُونٌ

يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ ٱلْبَطْشَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰٓ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ
We did, before them, try the people of Pharaoh: there came to them a messenger most honourable,
And certainly We tried before them the people of Firon, and there came to them a noble apostle,
Und Wir setzten bereits vor ihnen das Volk Fir'auns der Versuchung aus. Zu ihnen kam ein edler Gesandter:
وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ كَرِيمٌ
Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;

"For me, I have sought safety with my Lord and your Lord, against your injuring me.
And surely I take refuge with my Lord and your Lord that you should stone me to death:
Und gewiß, ich nehme Zuflucht bei meinem Herrn und eurem Herrn davor, daß ihr mich steinigt.
وَإِنِّى عُذْتُ بِرَبِّى وَرَبِّكُمْ أَن تَرْجُمُونِ
"If ye believe me not, at least keep yourselves away from me."
And if you do not believe in me, then leave me alone.
Und wenn ihr mir nicht glaubt, dann haltet euch (wenigstens) fern von mir."
وَإِن لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوا۟ لِى فَٱعْتَزِلُونِ
(But they were aggressive:) then he cried to his Lord: "These are indeed a people given to sin."
Then he called upon his Lord: These are a guilty people.

(The reply came:) "March forth with My Servants by night: for ye are sure to be pursued.
So go forth with My servants by night; surely you will be pursued:

وَٱتْرُكِ ٱلْبَحْرَ رَهْوًا إِنَّهُمْ جُندٌ مُّغْرَقُونَ
How many were the gardens and springs they left behind,
How many of the gardens and fountains have they left!
Wie viele Gärten und Quellen ließen sie zurück
كَمْ تَرَكُوا۟ مِن جَنَّٰتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
And corn - fields and noble buildings,
And cornfields and noble places!
und Getreidefelder und treffliche Stätte
وَزُرُوعٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ
And wealth (and conveniences of life), wherein they had taken such delight!
And goodly things wherein they rejoiced;
und ein angenehmes Leben, in dem sie vergnügt waren!
وَنَعْمَةٍ كَانُوا۟ فِيهَا فَٰكِهِينَ
Thus (was their end)! And We made other people inherit (those things)!
Thus (it was), and We gave them as a heritage to another people.
So (war es). Und Wir gaben es anderen Leuten zum Erbe.
كَذَٰلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَٰهَا قَوْمًا ءَاخَرِينَ
And neither heaven nor earth shed a tear over them: nor were they given a respite (again).
So the heaven and the earth did not weep for them, nor were they respited.
Weder Himmel noch Erde weinte über sie, und ihnen wurde kein Aufschub gewährt.
فَمَا بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنظَرِينَ
We did deliver aforetime the Children of Israel from humiliating Punishment,
And certainly We delivered the children of Israel from the abasing chastisement,

There is naught but our first death and we shall not be raised again.

Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them, for surely they were guilty.
Sind sie etwa besser oder das Volk Tubba's und diejenigen vor ihnen? Wir vernichteten sie; sie waren ja Übeltäter.
أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ أَهْلَكْنَٰهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ مُجْرِمِينَ
We created not the heavens, the earth, and all between them, merely in (idle) sport:
And We did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them in sport.

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَٰعِبِينَ
We created them not except for just ends: but most of them do not understand.
We did not create them both but with the truth, but most of them do not know.

مَا خَلَقْنَٰهُمَآ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
Verily the Day of sorting out is the time appointed for all of them, -
Surely the day of separation is their appointed term, of all of them

إِنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْفَصْلِ مِيقَٰتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
The Day when no protector can avail his client in aught, and no help can they receive,
The day on which a friend shall not avail (his) friend aught, nor shall they be helped,
der Tag, an dem kein Schutzherr seinem Schützling etwas nützen kann und ihnen keine Hilfe zuteil wird,
يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى مَوْلًى عَن مَّوْلًى شَيْـًٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
