[2] By the Moon as she follows him;
[3] By the Day as it shows up (the Sun's) glory;
[4] By the Night as it conceals it;
[5] By the Firmament and its (wonderful) structure;
[6] By the Earth and its (wide) expanse:
[7] By the Soul, and the proportion and order given to it;
[8] And its enlightenment as to its wrong and its right;-

[10] And he fails that corrupts it!
[11] The Thamud (people) rejected (their prophet) through their inordinate wrong-doing,
[12] Behold, the most wicked man among them was deputed (for impiety).
[13] But the Messenger of Allah said to them: "It is a She-camel of Allah! And (bar her not from) having her drink!"
[14] Then they rejected him (as a false prophet), and they hamstrung her. So their Lord, on account of their crime, obliterated their traces and made them equal (in destruction, high and low)!
[15] And for Him is no fear of its consequences.
