[1] I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked,
[2] And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed,
[3] And by those who float in space,
[4] Then those who are foremost going ahead,
[5] Then those who regulate the affair.
[6] The day on which the quaking one shall quake,
[7] What must happen afterwards shall follow it.
[8] Hearts on that day shall palpitate,
[9] Their eyes cast down.
[10] They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?
[11] What! when we are rotten bones?
[12] They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.
[13] But it shall be only a single cry,
[14] When lo! they shall be wakeful.
[15] Has not there come to you the story of Musa?
[16] When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,
[17] Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.
[18] Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:
[19] And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.
[20] So he showed him the mighty sign.
[21] But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.
[22] Then he went back hastily.
[23] Then he gathered (men) and called out.
[24] Then he said: I am your lord, the most high.
[25] So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.
[26] Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.
[27] Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.
[28] He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state.
[29] And He made dark its night and brought out its light.
[30] And the earth, He expanded it after that.
[31] He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage.
[32] And the mountains, He made them firm,
[33] A provision for you and for your cattle.
[34] But when the great predominating calamity comes;
[35] The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after,
[36] And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees
[37] Then as for him who is inordinate,
[38] And prefers the life of this world,
[39] Then surely the hell, that is the abode.
[40] And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires,
[41] Then surely the garden-- that is the abode.
[42] They ask you about the hour, when it will come.
[43] About what! You are one to remind of it.
[44] To your Lord is the goal of it.
[45] You are only a warner to him who would fear it.
[46] On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it.
