> 1 By those who drag forth to destruction, 
> 
> 2 By the meteors rushing, 
> 
> 3 By the lone stars floating, 
> 
> 4 By the angels hastening, 
> 
> 5 And those who govern the event, 
> 
> 6 On the day when the first trump resoundeth. 
> 
> 7 And the second followeth it, 
> 
> 8 On that day hearts beat painfully 
> 
> 9 While eyes are downcast 
> 
> 10 (Now) they are saying: Shall we really be restored to our first state 
> 
> 11 Even after we are crumbled bones ? 
> 
> 12 They say: Then that would be a vain proceeding. 
> 
> 13 Surely it will need but one shout, 
> 
> 14 And lo! they will be awakened. 
> 
> 15 Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses ? 
> 
> 16 How his Lord called him in the holy vale of Tuwa, 
> 
> 17 (Saying:) Go thou unto Pharaoh - Lo! he hath rebelled - 
> 
> 18 And say (unto him): Hast thou (will) to grow (in grace) ? 
> 
> 19 Then I will guide thee to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him). 
> 
> 20 And he showed him the tremendous token. 
> 
> 21 But he denied and disobeyed, 
> 
> 22 Then turned he away in haste, 
> 
> 23 Then gathered he and summoned 
> 
> 24 And proclaimed: "I (Pharaoh) am your Lord the Highest." 
> 
> 25 So Allah seized him (and made him) an example for the after (life) and for the former. 
> 
> 26 Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for him who feareth. 
> 
> 27 Are ye the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built ? 
> 
> 28 He raised the height thereof and ordered it; 
> 
> 29 And He made dark the night thereof, and He brought forth the morn thereof. 
> 
> 30 And after that He spread the earth, 
> 
> 31 And produced therefrom the water thereof and the pasture thereof, 
> 
> 32 And He made fast the hills, 
> 
> 33 A provision for you and for your cattle. 
> 
> 34 But when the great disaster cometh, 
> 
> 35 The day when man will call to mind his (whole) endeavour, 
> 
> 36 And hell will stand forth visible to him who seeth, 
> 
> 37 Then, as for him who rebelled 
> 
> 38 And chose the life of the world, 
> 
> 39 Lo! hell will be his home. 
> 
> 40 But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust, 
> 
> 41 Lo! the Garden will be his home. 
> 
> 42 They ask thee of the Hour: when will it come to port ? 
> 
> 43 Why (ask they) ? What hast thou to tell thereof ? 
> 
> 44 Unto thy Lord belongeth (knowledge of) the term thereof. 
> 
> 45 Thou art but a warner unto him who feareth it. 
> 
> 46 On the day when they behold it, it will be as if they had but tarried for an evening or the morn thereof.
