Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
Bei den schnaubend Rennenden,
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
And strike sparks of fire,
den (mit ihren Hufen) Funken Schlagenden,
Then those that produce fire striking,
Striking sparks of fire
And push home the charge in the morning,
den am Morgen Angreifenden,
Then those that make raids at morn,
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
die darin Staub aufwirbeln,
Then thereby raise dust,
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
die dann mitten in die Ansammlung eindringen!
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
Der Mensch ist seinem Herrn gegenüber wahrlich undankbar,
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
und er (selbst) ist darüber wahrlich Zeuge.
And most surely he is a witness of that.
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
Und er ist in seiner Liebe zum (eigenen) Besten wahrlich heftig.
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
Weiß er denn nicht? Wenn durchwühlt wird, was in den Gräbern ist,
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
und herausgeholt wird, was in den Brüsten ist,...
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
ihr Herr wird an jenem Tag ihrer wahrlich Kundig sein.
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
