Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High,
Preise den Namen deines höchsten Herrn,
سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى

Who creates, then makes complete,
Der erschafft und dann zurechtformt
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ
Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance;
And Who makes (things) according to a measure, then guides (them to their goal),
und Der das Maß festsetzt und dann rechtleitet
وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ
And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture,
And Who brings forth herbage,
und Der die Weide hervorbringt
وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ
And then doth make it (but) swarthy stubble.
Then makes it dried up, dust - colored.
und sie dann zu dunkelbrauner Spreu macht.
فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ
By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt not forget,
We will make you recite so you shall not forget,
Wir werden dich lesen lassen, und dann wirst du nichts vergessen,
سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ
Except as Allah wills: For He knoweth what is manifest and what is hidden.
Except what Allah pleases, surely He knows the manifest, and what is hidden.
außer dem, was Allah will. Er weiß ja, was laut vernehmbar geäußert wird und was verborgen bleibt.
إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ
And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path).
And We will make your way smooth to a state of ease.
Und Wir werden dir den Weg zum Leichteren leicht machen.
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer).
Therefore do remind, surely reminding does profit.
So ermahne -, wenn die Ermahnung nützt.
فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ
The admonition will be received by those who fear (Allah):
He who fears will mind,
Bedenken wird jemand, der gottesfürchtig ist.
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ

And the most unfortunate one will avoid it,
Meiden aber wird es der Unseligste,
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى
Who will enter the Great Fire,
Who shall enter the great fire;
der dem größten (Höllen)feuer ausgesetzt sein wird;
ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ
In which they will then neither die nor live.
Then therein he shall neither live nor die.
darin wird er hierauf weder sterben noch leben.
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ
But those will prosper who purify themselves,
He indeed shall be who purifies himself,
Wohl ergehen wird es ja jemandem, der sich läutert,
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ

Nay! you prefer the life of this world,
Nein! Vielmehr zieht ihr das diesseitige Leben vor,
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا
