[1] Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High,
[2] Who hath created, and further, given order and proportion;
[3] Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance;
[4] And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture,
[5] And then doth make it (but) swarthy stubble.
[6] By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt not forget,
[7] Except as Allah wills: For He knoweth what is manifest and what is hidden.
[8] And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path).
[9] Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer).
[10] The admonition will be received by those who fear (Allah):
[11] But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones,
[12] Who will enter the Great Fire,
[13] In which they will then neither die nor live.
[14] But those will prosper who purify themselves,
[15] And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts) in prayer.
[16] Nay (behold), ye prefer the life of this world;
[17] But the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
[18] And this is in the Books of the earliest (Revelation),-
[19] The Books of Abraham and Moses.
