1
(I) As the Ranks are drawn up,
2
rebuking with restraint
3
and reciting a Reminder,
4
your God is One (Alone),
5
Lord of Heaven and Earth and whatever lies between them, plus Lord of the Eastern parts!
6
We have beautified the worldly sky with the splendor of stars
7
plus a safeguard against every stubborn devil
8
so they may not listen to the supreme council and are hurled forth on every side.
9
Driven away, they will have lingering torment
10
except for someone who tries to eavesdrop so that a blazing meteor follows him.
11
Ask their opinion whether they or someone We created have been created stronger. We created them from sticky clay.
12
Rather you have been surprised as they sneered;
13
yet whenever they are reminded, they do not recall anything.
14
Whenever they see some sign, they make fun of it
15
and say: "This is just sheer magic!
16
When we have died and become dust and bones, will we be raised up again?
17
Along with our earliest forefathers?"
18
SAY: "Yes, and you yourselves abashed."
19
There will only be a single rebuke and then, they shall see!
20
They will say: "How awful it is for us: this is the Day for Repayment!
21
This is the day for sorting things out which you have been denying."
22
(II) Summon the ones who have done wrong plus their spouses, and anything they have been worshipping
23
instead of God; lead them along the road towards Hades.
24
Stop them! They must be questioned:
25
What's wrong with you that you do not support each other?
26
Rather today they are surrendering.
27
Some of them will step forth to question one another.
28
They will say: "You used to come at us from the right."
29
They will say: "Rather, you were not believers!
30
We have no authority over you. Instead you have been such arrogant folk.
