| 77:1 | | By those unleashed in succession |
| 77:2 | | Storming turbulently |
| 77:3 | | Scattering far and wide |
| 77:4 | | Separating decisively |
| 77:5 | | Delivering a message |
| 77:6 | | Excusing or warning |
| 77:7 | | Surely what you are promised will happen |
| 77:8 | | When the stars are obliterated |
| 77:9 | | And the sky is fractured |
| 77:10 | | And the mountains are blown away |
| 77:11 | | And the messengers are alerted |
| 77:12 | | Until which day is it deferred |
| 77:13 | | Until the Day of Decision |
| 77:14 | | And what will teach you what the Day of Decision is |
| 77:15 | | Woe on that Day to the liars. |
| 77:16 | | Did We not destroy the ancients |
| 77:17 | | Then succeeded them with the others |
| 77:18 | | This is how We deal with the guilty |
| 77:19 | | Woe on that Day to the rejecters |
| 77:20 | | Did We not create you from an insignificant fluid |
| 77:21 | | Then lodged it in a secure place |
| 77:22 | | For a known term |
| 77:23 | | We measured precisely. We are the best to measure |
| 77:24 | | Woe on that Day to the falsifiers |
| 77:25 | | Did We not make the earth a homestead |
| 77:26 | | For the living and the dead |
| 77:27 | | And set on it lofty mountains, and given you pure water to drink |
| 77:28 | | Woe on that Day to the deniers |
| 77:29 | | 'Proceed to what you used to deny.' |
| 77:30 | | 'Proceed to a shadow of three different masses.' |
| 77:31 | | Offering no shade, and unavailing against the flames |
| 77:32 | | It shoots sparks as castles |
| 77:33 | | As if they were yellow camels |
| 77:34 | | Woe on that Day to the liars |
| 77:35 | | This is a Day when they will not speak |
| 77:36 | | And they will not be allowed to apologize |
| 77:37 | | Woe on that Day to the rejecters |
| 77:38 | | This is the Day of Separation; We have gathered you, together with the ancients |
| 77:39 | | So if you have a strategy, use it against Me |
| 77:40 | | Woe on that Day to the falsifiers |
| 77:41 | | The righteous will be amidst shades and fountains |
| 77:42 | | And fruits as they desire |
| 77:43 | | 'Eat and drink pleasantly, for what you used to do.' |
| 77:44 | | This is how We reward the doers of good |
| 77:45 | | Woe on that Day to the deniers |
| 77:46 | | 'Eat and enjoy yourselves a little; you are indeed criminals.' |
| 77:47 | | Woe on that Day to the liars |
| 77:48 | | And when it is said to them, 'Kneel', they do not kneel |
| 77:49 | | Woe on that Day to the rejecters |
| 77:50 | | In what message, beyond this, will they believe |
