[1] Nay, I swear by this city -
[2] And thou art an indweller of this city -
[3] And the begetter and that which he begat,
[4] We verily have created man in an atmosphere:
[5] Thinketh he that none hath power over him?
[6] And he saith: I have destroyed vast wealth:
[7] Thinketh he that none beholdeth him?
[8] Did We not assign unto him two eyes
[9] And a tongue and two lips,
[10] And guide him to the parting of the mountain ways?
[11] But he hath not attempted the Ascent -
[12] Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Ascent is! -
[13] (It is) to free a slave,
[14] And to feed in the day of hunger.
[15] An orphan near of kin,
[16] Or some poor wretch in misery,
[17] And to be of those who believe and exhort one another to perseverance and exhort one another to pity.
[18] Their place will be on the right hand.
[19] But those who disbelieve Our revelations, their place will be on the left hand.
[20] Fire will be an awning over them.
