Chapter 93, 11 verses
By the Glorious Morning Light,
By the morning brightness
Bei der Morgenhelle
And by the Night when it is still, -
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
Thy Guardian - Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].
Dein Herr hat sich weder von dir verabschiedet noch haßt Er (dich).
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].
Und das Jenseits ist wahrlich besser für dich als das Diesseits.
And soon will thy Guardian - Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well - pleased.
And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
Und dein Herr wird dir wahrlich geben, und dann wirst du zufrieden sein.
Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?
Hat Er dich nicht als Waise gefunden und (dir) dann Zuflucht verschafft
And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.
And He found you lost and guided [you],
und dich irregehend gefunden und dann rechtgeleitet
And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
und dich arm gefunden und dann reich gemacht?
Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Was nun die Waise angeht, so unterjoche (sie) nicht,
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
und was die Gunst deines Herrn angeht, so erzähle (davon).
