[1] By the sky, (displaying) the Zodiacal Signs;
[2] By the promised Day (of Judgment);
[3] By one that witnesses, and the subject of the witness;-
[4] Woe to the makers of the pit (of fire),
[5] Fire supplied (abundantly) with fuel:
[6] Behold! they sat over against the (fire),
[7] And they witnessed (all) that they were doing against the Believers.
[8] And they ill-treated them for no other reason than that they believed in Allah, Exalted in Power, Worthy of all Praise!-
[9] Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth! And Allah is Witness to all things.
[10] Those who persecute (or draw into temptation) the Believers, men and women, and do not turn in repentance, will have the Penalty of Hell: They will have the Penalty of the Burning Fire.
[11] For those who believe and do righteous deeds, will be Gardens; beneath which rivers flow: That is the great Salvation, (the fulfilment of all desires),
[12] Truly strong is the Grip (and Power) of thy Lord.
[13] It is He Who creates from the very beginning, and He can restore (life).
[14] And He is the Oft-Forgiving, Full of Loving-Kindness,
[15] Lord of the Throne of Glory,
[16] Doer (without let) of all that He intends.
[17] Has the story reached thee, of the forces-
[18] Of Pharaoh and the Thamud?
[19] And yet the Unbelievers (persist) in rejecting (the Truth)!
[20] But Allah doth encompass them from behind!
[21] Nay, this is a Glorious Qur'an,
[22] (Inscribed) in a Tablet Preserved!
