[1] By those [winds] scattering [dust] dispersing
[2] And those [clouds] carrying a load [of water]
[3] And those [ships] sailing with ease
[4] And those [angels] apportioning [each] matter,
[5] Indeed, what you are promised is true.
[6] And indeed, the recompense is to occur.
[7] By the heaven containing pathways,
[8] Indeed, you are in differing speech.
[9] Deluded away from the Qur'an is he who is deluded.
[10] Destroyed are the falsifiers
[11] Who are within a flood [of confusion] and heedless.
[12] They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?"
[13] [It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire
[14] [And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient."
[15] Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs,
[16] Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good.
[17] They used to sleep but little of the night,
[18] And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,
[19] And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived.
[20] And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]
[21] And in yourselves. Then will you not see?
[22] And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.
[23] Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking.
[24] Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham? -
[25] When they entered upon him and said, "[We greet you with] peace." He answered, "[And upon you] peace, [you are] a people unknown.
[26] Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf
[27] And placed it near them; he said, "Will you not eat?"
[28] And he felt from them apprehension. They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.
[29] And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, "[I am] a barren old woman!"
[30] They said, "Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing."
[31] [Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"
[32] They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals
[33] To send down upon them stones of clay,
[34] Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors."
[35] So We brought out whoever was in the cities of the believers.
[36] And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims.
[37] And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment.
[38] And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.
[39] But he turned away with his supporters and said," A magician or a madman."
[40] So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.
[41] And in 'Aad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind.
[42] It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins.
[43] And in Thamud, when it was said to them, "Enjoy yourselves for a time."
[44] But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.
[45] And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves.
[46] And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient.
[47] And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
[48] And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.
[49] And of all things We created two mates; perhaps you will remember.
[50] So flee to Allah. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.
[51] And do not make [as equal] with Allah another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.
[52] Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, "A magician or a madman."
[53] Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people.
[54] So leave them, [O Muhammad], for you are not to be blamed.
[55] And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.
[56] And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.
[57] I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me.
[58] Indeed, it is Allah who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength.
[59] And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their predecessors, so let them not impatiently urge Me.
[60] And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised.
