79:1
By those who snatch [men´s souls] away at their last gasp
79:2
and others who act more nimbly
79:3
as well as those floating by,
79:4
and still others racing past,
79:5
to regulate some matter!
79:6
Someday a rumbling will be felt;
79:7
another will follow on its heels!
79:8
Hearts will be pounding on that day;
79:9
their sight will be downcast.
79:10
They will say: "Will we be restored to our original state
79:11
once we are crumbled bones?"
79:12
They say: ´That would then be a losing proposition!
79:13
There would only be a single rebuke
79:14
and then they would never be able to sleep again!
79:15
Has Moses´ story ever come to you,
79:16
when his Lord called to him by the sacred valley of Tuwa?
79:17
"Go off to Pharaoh; he has acted arrogantly.
79:18
SAY: ´Would you care to be purified
79:19
and for me to guide you to your Lord so you may [learn to] dread [Him]?"´
79:20
He showed him the greatest sign.
79:21
Yet he denied and defied it;
79:22
then he turned away to try his best.
79:23
He summoned, and called out,
79:24
and said: "I am your supreme Lord!"
79:25
God seized him as an example in (both) the Hereafter and from the First [life].
79:26
In that there lies a lesson for anyone who dreads [retribution].
79:27
Were you harder to create, or the sky He has raised?
79:28
He has lifted its canopy up and smoothed it off.
79:29
He darkens its night and brings forth its morning glow;
79:30
and the earth has He spread out besides,
79:31
and produced its water and its pasturage from it.
79:32
The mountains has He anchored
79:33
as an enjoyment for you and for your livestock.
79:34
When the greatest calamity comes along,
79:35
on the day when everyman will remember whatever he has tried to accomplish,
79:36
and Hades will loom forth for anyone to see,
79:37
anyone who has acted arrogantly
79:38
and preferred worldly life
79:39
will have Hades for a dwelling place.
79:40
Anyone who has been afraid to stand before his Lord and restrained himself from passion,
79:41
will have the Garden for a dwelling place.
79:42
They will ask you about the Hour: "When will it come to pass?
79:43
Why are you reminding us about it?"
79:44
It lies up to your Lord to set it.
79:45
You are merely a warner for anyone who dreads it;
79:46
just as some day they shall see they have hung around for only an evening, or its morning glow.
