Chapter 39, 75 verses
The revelation of this Book is from Allah, the Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom.
(Dies ist) die Offenbarung des Buches von Allah, dem Allmächtigen und Allweisen.
The revelation of the Qur'an is from Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
Verily it is We Who have revealed the Book to thee in Truth: so serve Allah, offering Him sincere devotion.
Wir haben das Buch mit der Wahrheit zu dir hinabgesandt. So diene Allah und sei Ihm gegenüber aufrichtig in der Religion.
Indeed, We have sent down to you the Book, [O Muhammad], in truth. So worship Allah, [being] sincere to Him in religion.
Is it not to Allah that sincere devotion is due? But those who take for protectors other than Allah (say): "We only serve them in order that they may bring us nearer to Allah." Truly Allah will judge between them in that wherein they differ. But Allah guides not such as are false and ungrateful.
Sicherlich, Allah gehört die aufrichtige Religion. Diejenigen aber, die sich anstatt Seiner Schutzherren nehmen (, sagen:) "Wir dienen ihnen nur, damit sie uns Zutritt in Allahs Nähe verschaffen" -, gewiß, Allah wird zwischen ihnen richten über das, worüber sie uneinig sind. Gewiß, Allah leitet nicht recht, wer ein Lügner und be harrlicher Ungläubiger ist.
Unquestionably, for Allah is the pure religion. And those who take protectors besides Him [say], "We only worship them that they may bring us nearer to Allah in position." Indeed, Allah will judge between them concerning that over which they differ. Indeed, Allah does not guide he who is a liar and [confirmed] .
Had Allah wished to take to Himself a son, He could have chosen whom He pleased out of those whom He doth create: but Glory be to Him! (He is above such things.) He is Allah, the One, the Irresistible.
Wenn Allah sich hätte Kinder nehmen wollen, hätte Er wahrlich aus dem, was Er erschaffen hat, sich auserwählt, was Er will. Preis sei Ihm! Er ist Allah, der Eine, der Allbezwinger.
If Allah had intended to take a son, He could have chosen from what He creates whatever He willed. Exalted is He; He is Allah, the One, the Prevailing.
He created the heavens and the earth in true (proportions): He makes the Night overlap the Day, and the Day overlap the Night: He has subjected the sun and the moon (to His law): Each one follows a course for a time appointed. Is not He the Exalted in Power - He Who forgives again and again?
Er hat die Himmel und die Erde in Wahrheit erschaffen. Er läßt die Nacht den Tag umschlingen, und Er läßt den Tag die Nacht umschlingen. Und Er hat die Sonne und den Mond dienstbar gemacht - ein jedes läuft auf eine festgesetzte Frist zu. Sicherlich, Er ist der Allmächtige und Allvergebende.
He created the heavens and earth in truth. He wraps the night over the day and wraps the day over the night and has subjected the sun and the moon, each running [its course] for a specified term. Unquestionably, He is the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver.
He created you (all) from a single person: then created, of like nature, his mate; and he sent down for you eight head of cattle in pairs: He makes you, in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another, in three veils of darkness. such is Allah, your Lord and Cherisher: to Him belongs (all) dominion. There is no god but He: then how are ye turned away (from your true Centre)?
Er schuf euch aus einem einzigen Wesen, hierauf machte Er aus ihm seine Gattin. Und Er hat für euch an Vieh acht (Tiere) in Paaren herabgesandt. Er erschafft euch in den Leibern eurer Mütter, eine Schöpfung nach der anderen in dreifacher Finsternis. Dies ist doch Allah, euer Herr. Ihm gehört die Herrschaft. Es gibt keinen Gott außer Ihm. Wie laßt ihr euch also abwenden?
He created you from one soul. Then He made from it its mate, and He produced for you from the grazing livestock eight mates. He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, within three darknesses. That is Allah, your Lord; to Him belongs dominion. There is no deity except Him, so how are you averted?
If ye reject (Allah), Truly Allah hath no need of you; but He liketh not ingratitude from His servants: if ye are grateful, He is pleased with you. No bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another. In the end, to your Lord is your Return, when He will tell you the truth of all that ye did (in this life). for He knoweth well all that is in (men's) hearts.
Wenn ihr ungläubig seid, so ist Allah eurer unbedürftig, obgleich Er mit dem Unglauben für Seine Diener nicht zufrieden ist. Wenn ihr aber dankbar seid, ist Er damit zufrieden für euch. Und keine lasttragende (Seele) nimmt die Last einer anderen auf sich. Hierauf wird eure Rückkehr zu eurem Herrn sein. Dann wird Er euch kundtun, was ihr zu tun pflegtet. Gewiß, Er weiß über das Innerste der Brüste Bescheid.
If you disbelieve - indeed, Allah is Free from need of you. And He does not approve for His servants disbelief. And if you are grateful, He approves it for you; and no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you about what you used to do. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.
When some trouble toucheth man, he crieth unto his Lord, turning to Him in repentance: but when He bestoweth a favour upon him as from Himself, (man) doth forget what he cried and prayed for before, and he doth set up rivals unto Allah, thus misleading others from Allah's Path. Say, "Enjoy thy blasphemy for a little while: verily thou art (one) of the Companions of the Fire!"
Und wenn dem Menschen Unheil widerfährt, ruft er seinen Herrn an, indem er sich Ihm reuig zuwendet. Wenn Er ihm hierauf Gunst von Sich gewährt, vergißt er, worum er zuvor angerufen hat, und er stellt Allah andere als Seinesgleichen zur Seite, um (die Menschen) von Seinem Weg ab in die Irre zu führen. Sag: Genieße deinen Unglauben ein wenig; du gehörst ja zu den Insassen des (Höllen)feuers.
And when adversity touches man, he calls upon his Lord, turning to Him [alone]; then when He bestows on him a favor from Himself, he forgets Him whom he called upon before, and he attributes to Allah equals to mislead [people] from His way. Say, "Enjoy your disbelief for a little; indeed, you are of the companions of the Fire."
Is one who worships devoutly during the hour of the night prostrating himself or standing (in adoration), who takes heed of the Hereafter, and who places his hope in the Mercy of his Lord - (like one who does not)? Say: "Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition.
Ist etwa einer, der sich zu (verschiedenen) Stunden der Nacht in demütiger Andacht befindet, (ob er) sich niederwirft oder aufrecht steht, der sich vor dem Jenseits vorsieht und auf seines Herrn Barmherzigkeit hofft ...? - Sag: Sind etwa dieje nigen, die wissen, und diejenigen, die nicht wissen, gleich? Doch bedenken nur diejenigen, die Verstand besitzen.
Is one who is devoutly obedient during periods of the night, prostrating and standing [in prayer], fearing the Hereafter and hoping for the mercy of his Lord, [like one who does not]? Say, "Are those who know equal to those who do not know?" Only they will remember [who are] people of understanding.
Say: "O ye my servants who believe! Fear your Lord, good is (the reward) for those who do good in this world. Spacious is Allah's earth! those who patiently persevere will truly receive a reward without measure!"
Sag: O meine Diener, die ihr gläubig seid, fürchtet euren Herrn. Für diejenigen, die Gutes tun, gibt es hier im Diesseits Gutes. Und Allahs Erde ist weit. Gewiß, den Standhaften wird ihr Lohn ohne Berechnung in vollem Maß zukommen.
Say, "O My servants who have believed, fear your Lord. For those who do good in this world is good, and the earth of Allah is spacious. Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account."
Say: "Verily, I am commanded to serve Allah with sincere devotion;
Sag: Mir ist befohlen worden, Allah zu dienen und dabei Ihm gegenüber aufrichtig in der Religion zu sein.
Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, I have been commanded to worship Allah, [being] sincere to Him in religion.
"And I am commanded to be the first of those who bow to Allah in Islam."
Und mir ist befohlen worden, der erste der (Ihm) Ergebenen zu sein.
And I have been commanded to be the first [among you] of the Muslims."
Say: "I would, if I disobeyed my Lord, indeed have fear of the Penalty of a Mighty Day."
Sag: Gewiß, ich fürchte, wenn ich mich meinem Herrn widersetze, die Strafe eines gewaltigen Tages.
Say, "Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."
Say: "It is Allah I serve, with my sincere (and exclusive) devotion:
Sag: Allah (allein) diene ich und bin dabei Ihm gegenüber aufrichtig in meiner Religion.
Say, "Allah [alone] do I worship, sincere to Him in my religion,
"Serve ye what ye will besides him." Say: "Truly, those in loss are those who lose their own souls and their People on the Day of Judgment: Ah! that is indeed the (real and) evident Loss!
So dient nun, wem ihr wollt, anstatt Seiner. Sag: Die (wahren) Verlierer sind diejenigen, die am Tag der Auferstehung sich selbst und ihre Angehörigen verlieren. Sicherlich, das ist der deutliche Verlust.
So worship what you will besides Him." Say, "Indeed, the losers are the ones who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, that is the manifest loss."
They shall have Layers of Fire above them, and Layers (of Fire) below them: with this doth Allah warn off his servants: "O My Servants! then fear ye Me!"
Sie haben über sich Schattendächer von Feuer und unter sich (ebensolche) Schattendächer. Damit flößt Allah Seinen Dienern Furcht ein: "O Meine Diener, fürchtet Mich also."
They will have canopies of fire above them and below them, canopies. By that Allah threatens His servants. O My servants, then fear Me.
Those who eschew Evil, - and fall not into its worship, - and turn to Allah (in repentance), - for them is Good News: so announce the Good News to My Servants, -
Diejenigen aber, die die falschen Götter meiden, um ihnen nicht zu dienen, und sich Allah reuig zuwenden, für sie gibt es die frohe Botschaft. So verkünde frohe Botschaft Meinen Dienern,
But those who have avoided Taghut, lest they worship it, and turned back to Allah - for them are good tidings. So give good tidings to My servants
Those who listen to the Word, and follow the best (meaning) in it: those are the ones whom Allah has guided, and those are the ones endued with understanding.
die auf das Wort hören und dann dem Besten davon folgen. Das sind diejenigen, die Allah rechtleitet, und das sind diejenigen, die Verstand besitzen.
Who listen to speech and follow the best of it. Those are the ones Allah has guided, and those are people of understanding.
Is, then, one against whom the decree of Punishment is justly due (equal to one who eschews Evil)? Wouldst thou, then, deliver one (who is) in the Fire?
Kannst du etwa jemanden retten, der im (Höllen)feuer ist... -jemanden, gegen den der Spruch der Strafe unvermeidlich fällig geworden ist?
Then, is one who has deserved the decree of punishment [to be guided]? Then, can you save one who is in the Fire?
But it is for those who fear their Lord. That lofty mansions, one above another, have been built: beneath them flow rivers (of delight): (such is) the Promise of Allah: never doth Allah fail in (His) promise.
Aber diejenigen, die ihren Herrn fürchten, für sie wird es Obergemächer geben, über denen (andere) Obergemächer gebaut sind, unterhalb derer Flüsse strömen. (Das ist) Allahs Versprechen. Allah bricht nicht, was Er versprochen hat.
But those who have feared their Lord - for them are chambers, above them chambers built high, beneath which rivers flow. [This is] the promise of Allah. Allah does not fail in [His] promise.
Seest thou not that Allah sends down rain from the sky, and leads it through springs in the earth? Then He causes to grow, therewith, produce of various colours: then it withers; thou wilt see it grow yellow; then He makes it dry up and crumble away. Truly, in this, is a Message of remembrance to men of understanding.
Siehst du nicht, daß Allah vom Himmel Wasser herabkommen und es dann als Quellen die Erde durchziehen läßt? Hierauf bringt Er damit Pflanzen von unterschiedlichen Arten hervor. Hierauf läßt Er sie austrocknen, und da siehst du sie gelb werden. Hierauf macht Er sie zu zermalmtem Zeug. Darin ist wahrlich eine Ermahnung für diejenigen, die Verstand besitzen.
Do you not see that Allah sends down rain from the sky and makes it flow as springs [and rivers] in the earth; then He produces thereby crops of varying colors; then they dry and you see them turned yellow; then He makes them [scattered] debris. Indeed in that is a reminder for those of understanding.
Is one whose heart Allah has opened to Islam, so that he has received Enlightenment from Allah, (no better than one hard - hearted)? Woe to those whose hearts are hardened against celebrating the praises of Allah! they are manifestly wandering (in error)!
Ist denn jemand, dessen Brust Allah für den Islam auftut, so daß er sich nach einem Licht von seinem Herrn richtet, (einem beharrlich Ungläubigen gleich)? So wehe denjenigen, deren Herzen gegen Allahs Ermahnung verhärtet sind! Sie befinden sich in deutlichem Irrtum.
So is one whose breast Allah has expanded to [accept] Islam and he is upon a light from his Lord [like one whose heart rejects it]? Then woe to those whose hearts are hardened against the remembrance of Allah. Those are in manifest error.
Allah has revealed (from time to time) the most beautiful Message in the form of a Book, consistent with itself, (yet) repeating (its teaching in various aspects): the skins of those who fear their Lord tremble thereat; then their skins and their hearts do soften to the celebration of Allah's praises. Such is the guidance of Allah: He guides therewith whom He pleases, but such as Allah leaves to stray, can have none to guide.
Allah hat die beste Botschaft offenbart, ein Buch mit gleichartigen, sich wiederholenden (Versen), vor dem die Haut derjenigen, die ihren Herrn fürchten, erschauert. Hierauf werden ihre Haut und ihr Herz weich (und neigen sich) zu Allahs Gedenken hin. Das ist Allahs Rechtleitung. Er leitet damit recht, wen Er will. Und wen Allah in die Irre gehen läßt, der hat niemanden, der ihn rechtleitet.
Allah has sent down the best statement: a consistent Book wherein is reiteration. The skins shiver therefrom of those who fear their Lord; then their skins and their hearts relax at the remembrance of Allah. That is the guidance of Allah by which He guides whom He wills. And one whom Allah leaves astray - for him there is no guide.
Is, then, one who has to fear the brunt of the Penalty on the Day of Judgment (and receive it) on his face, (like one guarded therefrom)? It will be said to the wrong - doers: "Taste ye (the fruits of) what ye earned!"
Ist denn jemand, der sich mit seinem Gesicht vor der bösen Strafe am Tag der Auferstehung hütet, ...? Und es wird zu den Ungerechten gesagt: "Kostet, was ihr erworben habt."
Then is he who will shield with his face the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection [like one secure from it]? And it will be said to the wrongdoers, "Taste what you used to earn."
Those before them (also) rejected (revelation), and so the Punishment came to them from directions they did not perceive.
Für Lüge erklärt haben es diejenigen, die vor ihnen waren. Da kam die Strafe über sie, von wo sie nicht merkten.
Those before them denied, and punishment came upon them from where they did not perceive.
So Allah gave them a taste of humiliation in the present life, but greater is the punishment of the Hereafter, if they only knew!
So ließ Allah sie im diesseitigen Leben die Schande kosten; aber die Strafe des Jenseits ist wahrlich größer, wenn sie nur wüßten!
So Allah made them taste disgrace in worldly life. But the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.
We have put forth for men, in this Qur'an every kind of Parable, in order that they may receive admonition.
Und Wir haben ja den Menschen in diesem Qur'an allerlei Gleichnisse geprägt, auf daß sie bedenken mögen -,
And We have certainly presented for the people in this Qur'an from every [kind of] example - that they might remember.
(It is) a Qur'an in Arabic, without any crookedness (therein): in order that they may guard against Evil.
(in diesem) arabischen Qur'an, an dem nichts Krummes ist, - auf daß sie gottesfürchtig werden mögen.
[It is] an Arabic Qur'an, without any deviance that they might become righteous.
Allah puts forth a Parable a man belonging to many partners at variance with each other, and a man belonging entirely to one master: are those two equal in comparison? Praise be to Allah! but most of them have no knowledge.
Allah prägt als Gleichnis dasjenige von einem Mann, in dem sich (mehrere) Herren (als Eigentümer) teilen, die sich miteinander nicht vertragen, und einem Mann, der nur einem Herrn gehört. Sind die beiden im Gleichnis etwa gleich? (Alles) Lob gehört Allah! Aber die meisten von ihnen wissen nicht.
Allah presents an example: a slave owned by quarreling partners and another belonging exclusively to one man - are they equal in comparison? Praise be to Allah! But most of them do not know.
Truly thou wilt die (one day), and truly they (too) will die (one day).
Du wirst gewiß sterben, und auch sie werden sterben.
Indeed, you are to die, and indeed, they are to die.
In the end will ye (all), on the Day of Judgment, settle your disputes in the presence of your Lord.
Hierauf werdet ihr am Tag der Auferstehung bei eurem Herrn miteinander streiten.
Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, before your Lord, will dispute.
Who, then, doth more wrong than one who utters a lie concerning Allah, and rejects the Truth when it comes to him; is there not in Hell an abode for blasphemers?
Wer ist denn ungerechter, als wer gegen Allah lügt und die Wahrheit, wenn sie zu ihm kommt, für Lüge erklärt? Ist nicht in der Hölle ein Aufenthaltsort für die Ungläubigen?
So who is more unjust than one who lies about Allah and denies the truth when it has come to him? Is there not in Hell a residence for the disbelievers?
And he who brings the Truth and he who confirms (and supports) it - such are the men who do right.
Derjenige aber, der mit der Wahrheit kommt (,) und (derjenige andere, der) sie für wahr hält, - das sind die Gottesfürchtigen.
And the one who has brought the truth and [they who] believed in it - those are the righteous.
They shall have all that they wish for, in the presence of their Lord: such is the reward of those who do good:
Sie haben, was sie wollen, bei ihrem Herrn; das ist der Lohn der Gutes Tuenden,
They will have whatever they desire with their Lord. That is the reward of the doers of good -
So that Allah will turn off from them (even) the worst in their deeds and give them their reward according to the best of what they have done.
auf daß Allah ihnen das Schlechteste von dem, was sie getan haben, tilge und ihnen ihren Lohn vergelte für das Beste von dem, was sie taten.
That Allah may remove from them the worst of what they did and reward them their due for the best of what they used to do.
Is not Allah enough for his Servant? But they try to frighten thee with other (gods) besides Him! for such as Allah leaves to stray, there can be no guide.
Wird Allah nicht Seinem Diener genügen? Dennoch wollen sie dir mit denjenigen, die es außer Ihm geben soll, Furcht einflößen. Und wen Allah in die Irre gehen läßt, der hat niemanden, der ihn rechtleitet.
Is not Allah sufficient for His Servant [Prophet Muhammad]? And [yet], they threaten you with those [they worship] other than Him. And whoever Allah leaves astray - for him there is no guide.
And such as Allah doth guide there can be none to lead astray. Is not Allah Exalted in Power, (Able to enforce His Will), Lord of Retribution?
Wen aber Allah rechtleitet, den kann niemand in die Irre führen. Ist nicht Allah Allmächtig und Besitzer von Vergeltungsgewalt?
And whoever Allah guides - for him there is no misleader. Is not Allah Exalted in Might and Owner of Retribution?
If indeed thou ask them who it is that created the heavens and the earth, they would be sure to say, "Allah". Say: "See ye then? the things that ye invoke besides Allah, - can they, if Allah wills some Penalty for me, remove His Penalty? - Or if He wills some Grace for me, can they keep back his Grace?" Say: "Sufficient is Allah for me! In Him trust those who put their trust."
Und wenn du sie fragst, wer die Himmel und die Erde erschaffen hat, sagen sie ganz gewiß: "Allah." Sag: Was meint ihr wohl zu dem, was ihr anstatt Allahs anruft; wenn Allah für mich Unheil will, können sie (dann) Sein Unheil hinwegnehmen? Oder wenn Er für mich Barmherzigkeit will, können sie (dann) Seine Barmherzigkeit zurückhalten? Sag: Meine Genüge ist Allah. Auf Ihn ver lassen sich diejenigen, die sich (überhaupt auf jemanden) verlassen.
And if you asked them, "Who created the heavens and the earth?" they would surely say, "Allah." Say, "Then have you considered what you invoke besides Allah? If Allah intended me harm, are they removers of His harm; or if He intended me mercy, are they withholders of His mercy?" Say, "Sufficient for me is Allah; upon Him [alone] rely the [wise] reliers."
Say: "O my People! Do whatever ye can: I will do (my part): but soon will ye know -
Sag: O mein Volk, handelt nach eurer Stellung, ich werde (ebenfalls so) handeln. Dann werdet ihr erfahren,
Say, "O my people, work according to your position, [for] indeed, I am working; and you are going to know
"Who it is to whom comes a Penalty of ignominy, and on whom descends a Penalty that abides."
über wen eine Strafe kommen wird, die ihn in Schande stürzt, und (über wen) eine beständige Strafe hereinbrechen wird.
To whom will come a torment disgracing him and on whom will descend an enduring punishment."
Verily We have revealed the Book to thee in Truth, for (instructing) mankind. He, then, that receives guidance benefits his own soul: but he that strays injures his own soul. Nor art thou set over them to dispose of their affairs.
Gewiß, Wir haben für die Menschen das Buch mit der Wahrheit auf dich hinabgesandt. Wer sich nun rechtleiten läßt, der (tut das) zu seinem eigenen Vorteil; und wer in die Irre geht, der geht nur zu seinem eigenen Nachteil in die Irre. Und du bist nicht (als) Sachwalter über sie (eingesetzt).
Indeed, We sent down to you the Book for the people in truth. So whoever is guided - it is for [the benefit of] his soul; and whoever goes astray only goes astray to its detriment. And you are not a manager over them.
It is Allah that takes the souls (of men) at death; and those that die not (He takes) during their sleep: those on whom He has passed the decree of death, He keeps back (from returning to life), but the rest He sends (to their bodies) for a term appointed verily in this are Signs for those who reflect.
Allah beruft die Seelen zur Zeit ihres Todes ab und auch diejenigen, die nicht gestorben sind, während ihres Schlafes'. Er hält die eine, für die Er den Tod beschlossen hat, zurück und gibt die andere auf eine festgesetzte Frist frei. Darin sind wahrlich Zeichen für Leute, die nachdenken.
Allah takes the souls at the time of their death, and those that do not die [He takes] during their sleep. Then He keeps those for which He has decreed death and releases the others for a specified term. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.
What! Do they take for intercessors others besides Allah? Say: "Even if they have no power whatever and no intelligence?"
Oder haben sie sich anstatt Allahs Fürsprecher genommen? Sag: Auch wenn sie über nichts verfügen und nicht begreifen?
Or have they taken other than Allah as intercessors? Say, "Even though they do not possess [power over] anything, nor do they reason?"
Say: "To Allah belongs exclusively (the right to grant) intercession: to Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: In the End, it is to Him that ye shall be brought back."
Sag: Alle Fürsprache gehört Allah (allein). Ihm gehört die Herrschaft der Himmel und der Erde. Hierauf werdet ihr zu Ihm zurückgebracht.
Say, "To Allah belongs [the right to allow] intercession entirely. To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. Then to Him you will be returned."
When Allah, the One and Only, is mentioned, the hearts of those who believe not in the Hereafter are filled with disgust and horror; but when (gods) other than He are mentioned, behold, they are filled with joy!
Und wenn Allah allein erwähnt wird, verkrampfen sich die Herzen derjenigen, die nicht an das Jenseits glauben. Wenn aber diejenigen erwähnt werden, die es außer Ihm geben soll, freuen sie sich sogleich.
And when Allah is mentioned alone, the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter shrink with aversion, but when those [worshipped] other than Him are mentioned, immediately they rejoice.
Say: "O Allah! Creator of the heavens and the earth! Knower of all that is hidden and open! it is Thou that wilt judge between Thy Servants in those matters about which they have differed."
Sag: O Allah, Erschaffer der Himmel und der Erde, Kenner des Verborgenen und des Offenbaren! Du wirst zwischen Deinen Dienern über das richten, worüber sie uneinig zu sein pflegten.
Say, "O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, You will judge between your servants concerning that over which they used to differ."
Even if the wrong - doers had all that there is on earth, and as much more, (in vain) would they offer it for ransom from the pain of the Penalty on the Day of Judgment: but something will confront them from Allah, which they could never have counted upon!
Wenn diejenigen, die Unrecht tun, alles hätten, was auf der Erde ist, und noch einmal das Gleiche dazu, würden sie sich sicherlich damit von der bösen Strafe am Tag der Auferstehung loskaufen. Ihnen wird dann (nämlich) von Allah her klar, womit sie nicht gerechnet haben.
And if those who did wrong had all that is in the earth entirely and the like of it with it, they would [attempt to] ransom themselves thereby from the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection. And there will appear to them from Allah that which they had not taken into account.
For the evils of their Deeds will confront them, and they will be (completely) encircled by that which they used to mock at!
Und ihnen werden die bösen Taten klar, die sie begangen haben, und es umschließt sie das, worüber sie sich lustig zu machen pflegten.
And there will appear to them the evils they had earned, and they will be enveloped by what they used to ridicule.
Now, when trouble touches man, he cries to Us: But when We bestow a favour upon him as from Ourselves, he says, "This has been given to me because of a certain knowledge (I have)!" Nay, but this is but a trial, but most of them understand not!
Wenn dem Menschen Unheil widerfährt, ruft er Uns an. Wenn Wir ihm hierauf Gunst von Uns gewähren, sagt er: "Es ist mir nur gegeben worden aufgrund von Wissen." Nein! Vielmehr ist es eine Versuchung. Aber die meisten von ihnen wissen nicht.
And when adversity touches man, he calls upon Us; then when We bestow on him a favor from Us, he says, "I have only been given it because of [my] knowledge." Rather, it is a trial, but most of them do not know.
Thus did the (generations) before them say! But all that they did was of no profit to them.
Das haben bereits diejenigen, die vor ihnen waren, gesagt. Aber nicht nützte ihnen, was sie zu. erwerben pflegten.
Those before them had already said it, but they were not availed by what they used to earn.
Nay, the evil results of their Deeds overtook them. And the wrong - doers of this (generation) - the evil results of their Deeds will soon overtake them (too), and they will never be able to frustrate (Our Plan)!
So trafen sie (schließlich) die bösen Taten, die sie begangen hatten. Und (auch) diejenigen unter diesen da, die Unrecht tun, werden die bösen Taten treffen, die sie begangen haben. Und sie können sich (Allah) nicht entziehen.
And the evil consequences of what they earned struck them. And those who have wronged of these [people] will be afflicted by the evil consequences of what they earned; and they will not cause failure.
Know they not that Allah enlarges the provision or restricts it, for any He pleases? Verily, in this are Signs for those who believe!
Wissen sie denn nicht, daß Allah die Versorgung großzügig gewährt, wem Er will, und auch bemißt? Darin sind wahrlich Zeichen für Leute, die glauben.
Do they not know that Allah extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it]? Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe.
Say: "O my Servants who have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft - Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Sag: O Meine Diener, die ihr gegen euch selbst maßlos gewesen seid, verliert nicht die Hoffnung auf Allahs Barmherzigkeit. Gewiß, Allah vergibt die Sünden alle. Er ist ja der Allvergebende und Barmherzige.
Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."
"Turn ye to our Lord (in repentance) and bow to His (Will), before the Penalty comes on you: after that ye shall not be helped.
Und wendet euch eurem Herrn reuig zu und seid Ihm ergeben, bevor die Strafe über euch kommt, worauf euch keine Hilfe zuteil werden wird.
And return [in repentance] to your Lord and submit to Him before the punishment comes upon you; then you will not be helped.
"And follow the best of (the courses) revealed to you from your Lord, before the Penalty comes on you - of a sudden while ye perceive not! -
Und folgt dem Besten von dem, was zu euch von eurem Herrn (als Offenbarung) herabgesandt worden ist, bevor die Strafe plötzlich über euch kommt, ohne daß ihr merkt,
And follow the best of what was revealed to you from your Lord before the punishment comes upon you suddenly while you do not perceive,
"Lest the soul should (then) say: 'Ah! Woe is me! - In that I neglected (my duty) towards Allah, and was but among those who mocked!' -
daß ja keine Seele sage(n muß): "O welch gramvolle Reue für mich wegen dessen, was ich (an Pflichten) gegenüber Allah vernachlässigte. Ich gehörte ja wirklich zu den Spöttern."
Lest a soul should say, "Oh [how great is] my regret over what I neglected in regard to Allah and that I was among the mockers."
"Or (lest) it should say: 'If only Allah had guided me, I should certainly have been among the righteous!' -
Oder daß sie nicht etwa sage(n soll): "Wenn Allah mich nur rechtgeleitet hätte, würde ich bestimmt zu den Gottesfürchtigen gehören."
Or [lest] it say, "If only Allah had guided me, I would have been among the righteous."
"Or (lest) it should say when it (actually) sees the penalty: 'If only I had another chance, I should certainly be among those who do good!'
Oder daß sie nicht etwa, wenn sie die Strafe sieht, sage(n soll): "Wenn ich doch nur eine (Möglichkeit zur) Wiederholung hätte, dann würde ich zu den Gutes Tuenden gehören!"
Or [lest] it say when it sees the punishment, "If only I had another turn so I could be among the doers of good."
"(The reply will be:) 'Nay, but there came to thee my Signs, and thou didst reject them: thou wast Haughty, and became one of those who reject faith!'"
- "Aber ja! Meine Zeichen sind doch zu dir gekommen. Da hast du sie für Lüge erklärt und dich hochmütig verhalten und hast zu den Ungläubigen gehört."
But yes, there had come to you My verses, but you denied them and were arrogant, and you were among the disbelievers.
On the Day of Judgment wilt thou see those who told lies against Allah; - their faces will be turned black; Is there not in Hell an abode for the Haughty?
Und am Tag der Auferstehung siehst du diejenigen, die gegen Allah gelogen haben; ihre Gesichter sind schwarz geworden. Ist nicht in der Hölle ein Aufenthaltsort für die Hochmütigen?
And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied about Allah [with] their faces blackened. Is there not in Hell a residence for the arrogant?
But Allah will deliver the righteous to their place of salvation: no evil shall touch them, nor shall they grieve.
Aber Allah errettet diejenigen, die gottesfürchtig waren, indem Er sie entrinnen läßt. Böses wird ihnen nicht widerfahren, noch werden sie traurig sein.

Say: "Is it some one other than Allah that ye order me to worship, O ye ignorant ones?"
Sag: Wollt ihr mir denn wirklich befehlen, einem anderen als Allah zu dienen, ihr Toren?

But it has already been revealed to thee, - as it was to those before thee, - "If thou wert to join (gods with Allah), truly fruitless will be thy work (in life), and thou wilt surely be in the ranks of those who lose (all spiritual good)".
Dir und denjenigen, die vor dir waren, ist ja (als Offenbarung) eingegeben worden: "Wenn du (Allah andere) beigesellst, wird dein Werk ganz gewiß hinfällig, und du gehörst ganz gewiß zu den Verlierern.
And it was already revealed to you and to those before you that if you should associate [anything] with Allah, your work would surely become worthless, and you would surely be among the losers."

No just estimate have they made of Allah, such as is due to Him: On the Day of Judgment the whole of the earth will be but His handful, and the heavens will be rolled up in His right hand: Glory to Him! High is He above the Partners they attribute to Him!
Sie haben Allah nicht eingeschätzt, wie es Ihm gebührt', wo die ganze Erde am Tag der Auferstehung in Seiner Hand gehalten wird und (auch) die Himmel in Seiner Rechten zusammengefaltet sein werden. Preis sei Ihm! Erhaben ist Er über das, was sie (Ihm) beigesellen.

The Trumpet will (just) be sounded, when all that are in the heavens and on earth will swoon, except such as it will please Allah (to exempt). Then will a second one be sounded, when, behold, they will be standing and looking on!
Und es wird ins Horn geblasen, und da bricht zusammen, wie vom Donnerschlag getroffen, wer in den Himmeln und wer auf der Erde ist, außer wem Allah will. Hierauf wird ein weiteres Mal hineingeblasen, da.stehen sie sogleich auf und schauen hin.
And the Horn will be blown, and whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth will fall dead except whom Allah wills. Then it will be blown again, and at once they will be standing, looking on.
And the Earth will shine with the Glory of its Lord: the Record (of Deeds) will be placed (open); the prophets and the witnesses will be brought forward and a just decision pronounced between them; and they will not be wronged (in the least).
Und die Erde wird im Licht ihres Herrn erstrahlen; das Buch wird hingelegt, und die Propheten und die Zeugen werden herbeigebracht; und es wird zwischen ihnen der Wahrheit entsprechend entschieden, und es wird ihnen kein Unrecht zugefügt.

The Unbelievers will be led to Hell in crowd: until, when they arrive, there, its gates will be opened. And its keepers will say, "Did not messengers come to you from among yourselves, rehearsing to you the Signs of your Lord, and warning you of the Meeting of This Day of yours?" The answer will be: "True: but the Decree of Punishment has been proved true against the Unbelievers!"
Zur Hölle getrieben werden diejenigen, die ungläubig waren, in Scharen. Wenn sie dann dort ankommen, werden ihre Tore geöffnet und ihre Wärter sagen zu ihnen: "Sind nicht zu euch Gesandte von euch (selbst) gekommen, die euch die Zeichen eures Herrn verlesen und euch die Begegnung mit diesem eurem Tag warnend an kündigen?" Sie werden sagen: "Ja doch! Aber das Wort der Strafe ist gegen die Ungläubigen unvermeidlich fällig geworden."

(To them) will be said: "Enter ye the gates of Hell, to dwell therein: and evil is (this) Abode of the Arrogant!"

And they will say, "Praise to Allah, who has fulfilled for us His promise and made us inherit the earth [so] we may settle in Paradise wherever we will. And excellent is the reward of [righteous] workers."
And thou wilt see the angels surrounding the Throne (Divine) on all sides, singing Glory and Praise to their Lord. The Decision between them (at Judgment) will be in (perfect) justice, and the cry (on all sides) will be, "Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds!"
