Chapter 83, 36 verses
Woe to those that deal in fraud, -
Wehe den das Maß Kürzenden,
Woe to the defrauders,
وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,
die, wenn sie sich von den Menschen zumessen lassen, sich volles Maß geben lassen,
Who, when they take the measure (of their dues) from men take it fully,
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ
But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.
wenn sie ihnen aber zumessen oder wägen, Verlust zufügen.
But when they measure out to others or weigh out for them, they are deficient.
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
Do they not think that they will be called to account? -
Glauben jene nicht, daß sie auferweckt werden
Do not these think that they shall be raised again
أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
On a Mighty Day,

A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?
am Tag, da die Menschen sich um des Herrn der Weltenbewohner willen aufstellen werden?
