| 83:1 | | Woe unto the defrauders |
| 83:2 | | Those who when they take the measure from mankind demand it full |
| 83:3 | | But if they measure unto them or weight for them, they cause them loss |
| 83:4 | | Do such (men) not consider that they will be raised agai |
| 83:5 | | Unto an Awful Day |
| 83:6 | | The day when (all) mankind stand before the Lord of the Worlds |
| 83:7 | | Nay, but the record of the vile is in Sijjin |
| 83:8 | | Ah! what will convey unto thee what Sijjin is! |
| 83:9 | | A written record |
| 83:10 | | Woe unto the repudiators on that day |
| 83:11 | | Those who deny the Day of Judgmen |
| 83:12 | | Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor |
| 83:13 | | Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old |
| 83:14 | | Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts |
| 83:15 | | Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from (the mercy of) their Lord |
| 83:16 | | Then lo! they verily will burn in hell |
| 83:17 | | And it will be said (unto them): This is that which ye used to deny |
| 83:18 | | Nay, but the record of the righteous is in 'Illiyin |
| 83:19 | | Ah, what will convey unto thee what 'Illiyin is! |
| 83:20 | | A written record |
| 83:21 | | Attested by those who are brought near (unto their Lord) |
| 83:22 | | Lo! the righteous verily are in delight |
| 83:23 | | On couches, gazing |
| 83:24 | | Thou wilt know in their faces the radiance of delight |
| 83:25 | | They are given to drink of a pure wine, sealed |
| 83:26 | | Whose seal is musk - for this let (all) those strive who strive for bliss |
| 83:27 | | And mixed with water of Tasnim |
| 83:28 | | A spring whence those brought near (to Allah) drink |
| 83:29 | | Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed |
| 83:30 | | And wink one to another when they passed them |
| 83:31 | | And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting |
| 83:32 | | And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray |
| 83:33 | | Yet they were not sent as guardians over them |
| 83:34 | | This day it is those who believe who have the laugh of disbelievers |
| 83:35 | | On high couches, gazing |
| 83:36 | | Are not the disbelievers paid for what they used to do |
