76:3  We guided him on the Way, whether he is thankful or unthankful.
76:4  We have made ready for the kafirun shackles and chains and a Searing Blaze.

76:7  They fulfil their vows and fear a Day whose evil will spread far and wide.
76:8  They give food, despite their love for it, to the poor and orphans and captives:
76:9  ´We feed you only out of desire for the Face of Allah. We do not want any repayment from you or any thanks.
76:10  Truly We fear from our Lord a glowering, calamitous Day.´

76:23  It is We who have sent the Qur´an down to you little by little.
76:24  Therefore wait patiently for the judgement of your Lord. Do not obey any evildoer or thankless man among them.
76:25  Remember the Name of your Lord in the morning and the evening.
76:26  Prostrate to Him during the night and glorify Him throughout the long night.

76:29  This truly is a Reminder, so whoever wills should take the Way towards his Lord.
