---|
85:1 | | By the sky holding constellations | 85:2 | | and the promised day, | 85:3 | | and a witness plus his evidence, | 85:4 | | the diggers of the Trench will be slain! | 85:5 | | The fire was full of fuel | 85:6 | | as they were crouching over it, | 85:7 | | and themselves were witnesses of what they were doing to believers. | 85:8 | | They persecuted them merely because they believed in God, the Powerful, the Praiseworthy, | 85:9 | | Who holds control over Heaven and Earth. God is a Witness for everything! | 85:10 | | Those who harass believing men and women, then do not repent, will have Hell´s torment; they will have the torment of burning. | 85:11 | | The ones who believe and perform honorable deeds will have gardens through which rivers flow; that will be the great Achievement. | 85:12 | | Nevertheless your Lord´s onslaught will be severe; | 85:13 | | He is the One Who originates [matters], then repeats them all over again. | 85:14 | | He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate, | 85:15 | | Possessor of the Majestic Throne, | 85:16 | | Doer of anything He wants. | 85:17 | | Has the report on the armies ever come to you, | 85:18 | | about Pharaoh and Thamud? | 85:19 | | Rather those who disbelieve [persist] in denial | 85:20 | | while God comes sweeping in behind them. | 85:21 | | Still it is a majestic Reading | 85:22 | | [preserved] on a guarded tablet! |
