And (by) the pluckers drowning, (i.e., Angels plucking the disbelievers).
2
And (by) the brisk (angels acting) briskly,
3
And (by) the swimmers swimming (serenely), (Or: gliding; horses racing; celestial bodies racing).
4
Then (by) the outstrippers outstripping (smoothly),
5
Then (by) the directors (conducting) according to His Command.
6
On the Day when the (first) commotion commoves,
7
Followed by the subsequent (commotion),
8
Hearts upon that Day will be agitated,
9
Their beholdings (i.e., eyesights) will be submissive.
10
They will say, "will we surely be turned back to our former state? (Some interpret the Arabic to mean "in the grave" or "gravediggers").
11
Even when we are decayed bones?"
12
They will say, "Lo, that then would be a losing recurrence!"
13
Yet, surely it shall be only one scaring (Cry),
14
Then, only then, are they wakeful (for Judgment) (i.e. for Hell or watchful place).
15
Has there come up to you the discourse of Musu (Moses).
16
As his Lord called out to him in the supremely holy valley, Tuwa:
17
Go to Firaawn; (Pharaoh) surely he has grown tyrannical (Or: inordinate).
18
So say (to him), Would you (be ready) to cleanse yourself,
19
And that I should guide you to your Lord, then you will be apprehensive of (Him)?"'
20
So he (Moses) showed him (Pharaoh) the greatest sign,
21
Yet he (Pharaoh) cried lies and disobeyed,
22
Thereafter he withdrew in a (hasty) endeavor.
23
So he mustered and called out,
24
Then he said, "I am your lord, most exalted!"
25
Then Allah took him (away) with the torture of the Hereafter and the First (life).
26
Surely in that is indeed a lesson for him who is apprehensive!
27
Are you harder in creation than the heaven? He built it!
28
He raised up its vault, then He molded it,
29
And He bedimmed its night and brought out its forenoon.
30
And the earth, after that He flattened it (for life).
