1
O you cloaked one (who has preferred solitude)!
3
And declare your Lord’s (indescribable and incomparable) greatness.
4
And keep your clothing clean!
5
Keep away from all pollution.
6
Do not consider your fulfillment of these orders as a kindness (to God and people).
7
And for the sake of your Lord be patient (in fulfilling your duty toward God and people).
8
Then, when the Horn is sounded,
9
That Day will be a day of hardship,
10
For the unbelievers, not easy.
11
Leave Me (to deal) with him whom I created alone,
12
And I enabled for him abundant wealth,
13
And children around him as means of power;
14
And I have granted him all means and status for a comfortable life.
15
And yet, he desires that I should give more.
16
By no means! Surely he has been in obstinate opposition to Our Revelations.
17
I will oblige him to a strenuous climb.
18
He pondered and he calculated (how he could disprove the Qur’an in people’s sight).

20
Yea, may God preserve him from the evil eye! how he calculated!
21
Then he looked around (in the manner of one who will decide on a matter about which he is asked).
22
Then he frowned and scowled.
23
Then he turned his back and (despite inwardly acknowledging the Qur’an’s Divine origin), grew in arrogance,
24
And he said: "This is nothing but sorcery (of a sort transmitted from sorcerers) from old times.
25
This is nothing but the word of a mortal.
26
I will make him enter a pit of Hell.
27
What enables you to perceive what that pit is?
28
It leaves none (but entirely burns everyone of those thrown into it), nor does it spare anyone (so that they might die and escape).
29
It scorches up the skin.
30
Over it there are nineteen (keepers).
