Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
It shall be made into a vault over them,
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
Lo! it is closed in on them
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
In columns outstretched.
In extended columns.
In outstretched columns.
in langgestreckten Säulen.
