[1] He frowned and turned (his) back,
[2] Because there came to him the blind man.
[3] And what would make you know that he would purify himself,
[4] Or become reminded so that the reminder should profit him?
[5] As for him who considers himself free from need (of you),
[6] To him do you address yourself.
[7] And no blame is on you if he would not purify himself
[8] And as to him who comes to you striving hard,
[9] And he fears,
[10] From him will you divert yourself.
[11] Nay! surely it is an admonishment.
[12] So let him who pleases mind it.
[13] In honored books,
[14] Exalted, purified,
[15] In the hands of scribes
[16] Noble, virtuous.
[17] Cursed be man! how ungrateful is he!
[18] Of what thing did He create him?
[19] Of a small seed; He created him, then He made him according to a measure,
[20] Then (as for) the way-- He has made it easy (for him)
[21] Then He causes him to die, then assigns to him a grave,
[22] Then when He pleases, He will raise him to life again.
[23] Nay; but he has not done what He bade him.
[24] Then let man look to his food,
[25] That We pour down the water, pouring (it) down in abundance,
[26] Then We cleave the earth, cleaving (it) asunder,
[27] Then We cause to grow therein the grain,
[28] And grapes and clover,
[29] And the olive and the palm,
[30] And thick gardens,
[31] And fruits and herbage
[32] A provision for you and for your cattle.
[33] But when the deafening cry comes,
[34] The day on which a man shall fly from his brother,
[35] And his mother and his father,
[36] And his spouse and his son--
[37] Every man of them shall on that day have an affair which will occupy him.
[38] (Many) faces on that day shall be bright,
[39] Laughing, joyous.
[40] And (many) faces on that day, on them shall be dust,
[41] Darkness shall cover them.
[42] These are they who are unbelievers, the wicked.
