[1] By the angels who violently tear-out the souls of the disbelievers from their bodies,
[2] by the angels who gently release the souls of the believers,
[3] by the angels who float (in the heavens by the will of God),
[4] by the angels who hasten along
[5] and by the angels who regulate the affairs, (you will certainly be resurrected).
[6] On the day when the first trumpet sound blasts
[7] and will be followed by the second one,
[8] hearts will undergo terrible trembling,
[9] and eyes will be humbly cast down.
[10] (The disbelievers) say, "Shall we be brought back to life again
[11] after we have become bones and dust?"
[12] They have said, "Such a resurrection will certainly be a great loss".
[13] However, it will only take a single blast
[14] to bring them out of their graves and back to life on the earth's surface.
[15] (Muhammad), have you heard the story of Moses
[16] when his Lord called him in the holy valley of Tuwa,
[17] saying, "Go to the Pharaoh. He has transgressed beyond all bounds.
[18] And say to him, "Would you like to reform yourself?
[19] I shall guide you to your Lord so that you may perhaps have fear of Him".
[20] Moses showed him the great miracle
[21] but the Pharaoh rejected it and disobeyed (Moses).
[22] Then he turned away in a hurry,
[23] and gathered his people together
[24] saying, "I am your supreme lord".
[25] So God struck him with the torment of this life and the life hereafter.
[26] In this there is a lesson for those who have fear of God.
[27] (People), is your creation harder for God than that of the heavens, which He created, raised and established
[28] high above?
[29] He has made its nights dark and its days bright.
[30] After this, He spread out the earth,
[31] produced water and grass therefrom,
[32] then set-up firmly the mountains.
[33] All this was done as a means of enjoyment for you and your cattle.
[34] On the day when the great calamity comes,
[35] the human being will recall whatever he has done.
[36] Hell fire will become visible for those who would see it.
[37] Those who have rebelled
[38] and preferred the worldly life,
[39] hell will be their dwelling.
[40] However, those who had feared their Lord and restrained their souls from acting according to its desires.
[41] Paradise will be the dwelling.
[42] (Muhammad), they ask you, "When will the Hour of Doom come?"
[43] (Muhammad), you do not know (when and how) it will come.
[44] This matter is in the hands of your Lord.
[45] You are only a warner for those who fear such a day.
[46] On the day when they see it, it will seem to them as though they had only lived in the world for a morning and an afternoon.
