1
[I swear] by those who scatter far and wide,
4
and distribute the commands.
5
What has been promised to you is true,
6
and, verily, Judgment will surely come!
7
[I swear] by the sky and its paths
8
that, verily, your words are conflicting,
9
and the deluded ones are deluded by them.
12
They ask: “When will Judgment Day come?”
13
It is the Day when they shall be tried by the Fire!
14
Have a taste of your trial — is it not what you were so eager to hasten!
15
Verily, the God-fearing shall be amidst Gardens and springs,
16
receiving their Lord gifts for their past good deeds.
17
They used to sleep little at night,
18
and at dawn they prayed for forgiveness;
19
and in their wealth there was a part for the asking and the poor.
20
There are Signs on earth for the believers!
21
Some of them are in yourselves — do you not see?
22
But in Heaven is your sustenance and what has been promised to you.
23
[I swear] by the Lord of the Heaven and earth, that this is as real as your ability to speak!
24
Has the story of Abraham’s honored guests reached you?
25
They came to him, and said: “Peace!” He said: “Peace!” [and thought]: “These people are so strange!”
26
Then he hastened to his family and brought [the meat] of a fattened calf.
27
Setting it before them, he said: “Wouldn’t you like to eat?”
28
He felt afraid of them, but they said: “Don’t be scared” and announced to him [the birth of] a wise son.
29
His wife came forward crying, slapping her face, and saying: “I’m a barren old woman!”
30
They said: “Thus spoke your Lord! He’s the Wise, the All-Knowing.”
