لِّلْكَٰفِرِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُۥ دَافِعٌ

und kein warmherziger Freund seinen Freund (irgend etwas) fragt.
And no friend will ask [anything of] a friend,
وَلَا يَسْـَٔلُ حَمِيمٌ حَمِيمًا
Though they will be put in sight of each other, - the sinner's desire will be: Would that he could redeem himself from the Penalty of that Day by (sacrificing) his children,
obwohl sie ihrem Anblick ausgesetzt sein werden. Der Übeltäter hätte es gern, wenn er sich von der Strafe jenes Tages loskaufte mit seinen Söhnen
They will be shown each other. The criminal will wish that he could be ransomed from the punishment of that Day by his children
يُبَصَّرُونَهُمْ يَوَدُّ ٱلْمُجْرِمُ لَوْ يَفْتَدِى مِنْ عَذَابِ يَوْمِئِذٍۭ بِبَنِيهِ

وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ يُنجِيهِ
By no means! for it would be the Fire of Hell! -
Keineswegs! Es ist doch ein loderndes Feuer,
No! Indeed, it is the Flame [of Hell],

وَجَمَعَ فَأَوْعَىٰٓ
Truly man was created very impatient; -
Gewiß, der Mensch ist als kleinmütig erschaffen.
Indeed, mankind was created anxious:
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ خُلِقَ هَلُوعًا

وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم مِّنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّهِم مُّشْفِقُونَ
For their Lord's displeasure is the opposite of Peace and Tranquillity; -
- denn gewiß, vor der Strafe ihres Herrn (kann) sich niemand sicher glauben,
Indeed, the punishment of their Lord is not that from which one is safe -
إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّهِمْ غَيْرُ مَأْمُونٍ

- und diejenigen, die ihre Scham hüten,
And those who guard their private parts

But those who trespass beyond this are transgressors; -
- wer aber darüber hinaus (etwas) begehrt, das sind die Übertreter,
But whoever seeks beyond that, then they are the transgressors -

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍ مُّكْرَمُونَ
Now what is the matter with the Unbelievers that they rush madly before thee -
Was ist mit denjenigen, die ungläubig sind, daß sie hastig auf dich zukommen
So what is [the matter] with those who disbelieve, hastening [from] before you, [O Muhammad],
فَمَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ قِبَلَكَ مُهْطِعِينَ
From the right and from the left, in crowds?
rechts und links, in Gruppen aufgeteilt?
[To sit] on [your] right and [your] left in separate groups?
عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ ٱلشِّمَالِ عِزِينَ
Does every man of them long to enter the Garden of Bliss?
Begehrt (etwa) jedermann von ihnen, in einen Garten der Wonne eingelassen zu werden?
Does every person among them aspire to enter a garden of pleasure?
أَيَطْمَعُ كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ أَن يُدْخَلَ جَنَّةَ نَعِيمٍ
By no means! For We have created them out of the (base matter) they know!
Keineswegs! Wir haben sie doch aus dem erschaffen, was sie wissen.
No! Indeed, We have created them from that which they know.
كَلَّآ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَٰهُم مِّمَّا يَعْلَمُونَ

Nein! Ich schwöre beim Herrn der Osten und der Westen, Wir haben fürwahr die Macht dazu,
So I swear by the Lord of [all] risings and settings that indeed We are able

daß Wir sie durch bessere als sie austauschen. Und niemand kann Uns zuvorkommen.
To replace them with better than them; and We are not to be outdone.
عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ خَيْرًا مِّنْهُمْ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ
So leave them to plunge in vain talk and play about, until they encounter that Day of theirs which they have been promised! -
So lasse sie nur schweifende Gespräche führen und ihr Spiel treiben, bis sie ihrem Tag begegnen, der ihnen angedroht ist,
So leave them to converse vainly and amuse themselves until they meet their Day which they are promised -
فَذَرْهُمْ يَخُوضُوا۟ وَيَلْعَبُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ يُلَٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ
The Day whereon they will issue from their sepulchres in sudden haste as if they were rushing to a goal - post (fixed for them), -
dem Tag, da sie aus den Gräbern eilig herauskommen werden, als würden sie hastig zu einem aufgerichteten Opferstein laufen,
The Day they will emerge from the graves rapidly as if they were, toward an erected idol, hastening.
يَوْمَ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَجْدَاثِ سِرَاعًا كَأَنَّهُمْ إِلَىٰ نُصُبٍ يُوفِضُونَ
Their eyes lowered in dejection, - ignominy covering them (all over)! such is the Day the which they are promised!
mit demütigen Blicken, bedeckt mit Erniedrigung. Das ist der Tag, der ihnen immer wieder angedroht wurde.
Their eyes humbled, humiliation will cover them. That is the Day which they had been promised.
خَٰشِعَةً أَبْصَٰرُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلَّذِى كَانُوا۟ يُوعَدُونَ
