39:1  The revelation of the Book is from God, the Mighty, the Wise.

39:2  Indeed We, We have sent down to you the Book with the truth, so serve God, sincere to Him in the religion.

39:3  Lo, for God is the sincere religion. And those who took patrons besides Him, 'We do not serve them except that they may bring us near to God in nearness.' Indeed, God will judge between them concerning that in which they, they disagree. Indeed, God does not guide he who is a disbelieving liar.

39:4  Had God desired that He take a son, surely He would have chosen what He wills from what He creates. Glory be to Him. He is God, the One, the Subduer.

39:5  He created the heavens and the earth with the truth. He wraps the night on the day; and He wraps the day on the night; and He subjected the sun and the moon, each runs to a named term. Lo, He is the Mighty, the Very Forgiving.

39:6  He created you from one soul, then He made from it its mate; and He sent down for you of the cattle eight kinds. He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, in three darknesses. That is God, your Lord; for Him is the kingdom, there is no god but He; how then are you turned away?

39:7  If you disbelieve, then indeed, God is free of need from you. He is not pleased with disbelief for His servants; and if you are grateful, He is pleased with it for you. And no burdened one will bear the burden of another; then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you of what you used to do; indeed, He knows what the breasts own.

39:8  And when harm touches man, he calls on his Lord, repentant to Him; then when He grants him favour from Him, he forgets what he used to call to Him for before, and he makes peers for God that he may cause to go astray from His way. Say, 'Enjoy in your disbelief a little, indeed, you are among the fellows of the fire.'

39:9  Is he who is obedient in the hours of the night, prostrating and standing, cautious of the hereafter, and hoping for the mercy of his Lord? Say, 'Are those who know and those who do not know equal?' Only the possessors of understanding remember.

39:10  Say, 'O My servants, those who believed! Fear your Lord. For those who do good in this, the world, is good, and the earth of God is spacious; only the patient ones will be paid their reward in full without reckoning.'

39:11  Say, 'Indeed I, I was commanded that I serve God, sincere to Him in the religion;

39:12  And I was commanded that I be the first of those who submit.'

39:13  Say, 'Indeed I, I fear if I rebel against my Lord, the punishment of a great day.'

39:14  Say, 'God I serve, sincere in my religion to Him;

39:15  So serve what you will besides Him.' Say, 'Indeed, the losers are those who lose their souls and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Lo, that, it is the clear loss.'

39:16  For them above them shades of fire, and beneath them shades; that, God frightens His servants with it: 'O My servants! So fear Me.'

39:17  And those who avoided the idols lest they worship them, and repented to God, for them are glad tidings. So give glad tidings to my servants,

39:18  Those who listen to the speech, then they follow the best of it; those are the ones who God has guided them, and those, they are the possessors of understanding.

39:19  Then is he against whom the word of punishment is due? Then can you rescue one who is in the fire?

39:20  But those who fear their Lord, for them are upper chambers, above them upper chambers built, beneath which the rivers flow; the promise of God; God does not break the promise.

39:21  Did you not see that God sent down water from the heaven, then He made it enter springs in the earth; then He brings forth with it corn, its colours are different; then it withers and you see it becoming yellow; then He makes it grit? Indeed, in that surely is a reminder for the possessors of understanding.

39:22  So is one who God expanded his breast for the submission, so he is upon light from his Lord? So woe to those who their hearts are hard against the remembrance of God; those are in clear error.

39:23  God has sent down the best of information, a book, consimilar, repeated; the skins of those who fear their Lord shudder from it; then their skins and their hearts become soft to the remembrance of God. That is the guidance of God. He guides with it whom He wills. And whoever God causes to go astray, then there is no guide for him.

39:24  Is then he who will shield with his face the evil of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection? And it will be said to the wrongdoers, 'Taste what you used to earn.'

39:25  Those who were before them denied, So the punishment came upon them from where they perceive not;

39:26  And God made them taste the disgrace in the worldly life, and surely, the punishment of the hereafter is greater, had they known.

39:27  And surely, certainly We have struck for mankind in this, the Quran, of every similitude, perhaps they may remember.

39:28  An Arabic Quran, not possessed of crookedness; perhaps they may fear.

39:29  God has struck a similitude, a man, concerning him there are partners disagreeing, and a man peaceful for a man. Are they both equal in similitude? Praise be to God. Nay, most of them do not know.

39:30  Indeed, you will die, and indeed, they will die;

39:31  Then indeed, on the Day of Resurrection before your Lord you will dispute.

39:32  And who is more unjust than he who lied against God, and called the truth a lie when it came to him? Is there not in Hell an abode for the disbelievers?

39:33  And the one who came with the truth and verified it, those, they are the ones who fear.

39:34  For them is what they will with their Lord, that is the recompense of the good-doers;

39:35  That God may cover from them the most evil of what they did, and recompense them their payment for the best of what they used to do.

39:36  Does God not suffice His servant? And they frighten you with those who are besides Him. And whoever God causes to go astray, then there is no guide for him;

39:37  And whoever God guides, then there is no misleader for him; is not God mighty, owner of vengeance?

39:38  And surely if you ask them who created the heavens and the earth, they will surely, definitely say, 'God.' Say, 'Then have you seen what you call on besides God, if God desires harm for me, can they remove His harm? Or if He desires mercy for me, can they withhold His mercy?' Say, 'God is enough for me, upon Him rely those who rely.'

39:39  Say, 'O my people! Work according to your position, indeed, I am working; then soon you will know

39:40  To whom will come a punishment disgracing him, and on whom will alight lasting punishment.'

39:41  Indeed We, We have sent down upon you the Book for mankind with the truth; So whoever is guided, then for his soul; and whoever went astray, then he only goes astray against it, and you are not a trustee over them.

39:42  God causes the souls to die at the time of their death; and the ones which did not die, in their sleep; then He holds the ones on whom He has decreed death, and He sends the others to a named term; indeed, in that surely are signs for people who think.

39:43  Or they took intercessors besides God. Say, 'Even though they do not have power for anything and they are not intelligent?'

39:44  Say, 'For God is the intercession altogether; for Him is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; then to Him you will be returned.'

39:45  And when God alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who do not believe in the hereafter quake, and when those who are besides Him are mentioned, behold, they rejoice.

39:46  Say, 'O God, the originator of the heavens and the earth, the knower of the unseen and the seen! You will judge between your servants concerning that in which they were disagreeing.'

39:47  And if that for those who did wrong is what is in the earth altogether and the like of it with it, they would surely ransom themselves with it from the evil of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection. And what they did not expect will appear to them from God;

39:48  And the evils of what they earned will appear to them; and what they used to mock at will surround them.

39:49  So when harm touches man he calls on Us; then when We grant him favour from Us, he says, 'I have only been given it upon knowledge.' Nay, it is a trial, but most of them do not know.

39:50  Certainly, those who were before them said it, then what they used to earn availed them not,

39:51  Then the evils of what they earned befell them; and those who did wrong of these, soon the evils of what they earned will befall them, and they will not escape.

39:52  And did they not know that God extends the provision to whom He wills and He straitens? Indeed, in that surely are signs for people who believe.

39:53  Say, 'O my servants, those who were extravagant against their souls! Do not despair of the mercy of God; indeed, God forgives the sins altogether; indeed He, He is the Forgiving, the Compassionate.'

39:54  And repent to your Lord, and submit to Him, before that the punishment comes to you; then you will not be helped.

39:55  And follow the best of what has been sent down to you from your Lord, before that the punishment comes to you suddenly, while you do not perceive.

39:56  Lest a soul says, 'O my regret over what I neglected concerning the portion of God! And indeed, I was surely among the mockers.'

39:57  Or it says, 'If that God had guided me, surely, I would have been among those who fear.'

39:58  Or it says, when it sees the punishment, 'If that there is a return for me, then I would be among the good-doers.'

39:59  Yes, certainly My signs came to you, then you called them lies, and you were proud, and you were among the disbelievers.

39:60  And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied against God, their faces black. Is there not in Hell an abode for the proud?

39:61  And God will save those who feared, in their place of security; the evil will not touch them, and they, they will not grieve.

39:62  God is the creator of everything, and He is a trustee over everything;

39:63  For Him are the keys of the heavens and the earth. And those who disbelieved in the signs of God, those, they are the losers.

39:64  Say, 'Do you bid me serve other than God, O ignorant ones?'

39:65  And surely, certainly it has been inspired to you and to those who were before you: Surely, if you associate partners, your work will surely, definitely be void, and you will surely, definitely be among the losers.

39:66  Nay, so serve God and be among the thankful ones.

39:67  And they measured not God truly His value; while the earth altogether is a handful for Him on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand. Glory be to Him and exalted is He from what they associate.

39:68  And the horn will be blown in, then whoever is in the heavens and whoever is in the earth will swoon, except whom God willed. Then it will be blown in another time, then behold, they will be standing, looking.

39:69  And the earth will shine with the light of its Lord, and the Book will be set down, and the prophets and the witnesses will be brought; and it will be decided between them with the truth, and they, they will not be wronged.

39:70  And every soul will be paid in full what it did; and He knows best what they do.

39:71  And those who disbelieved will be driven to Hell in troops, until when they come to it, its doors will be opened, and its keepers will say to them, 'Did messengers from you not come to you reciting to you the signs of your Lord, and warning you of the meeting of this your day?' They will say, 'Yes.’ But the word of punishment is due against the disbelievers.

39:72  It will be said, 'Enter the gates of Hell, to dwell forever in it;’ and evil is the abode of the proud.

39:73  And those who feared their Lord will be driven to the Garden in troops, until when they come to it, and its doors will be opened, and its keepers will say to them, 'Peace be on you, you were good, so enter it to dwell forever.'

39:74  And they will say, 'Praise be to God, the one who has fulfilled His promise to us, and has made us inherit the earth. We settle wherever we will of the Garden;’ and excellent is the reward of the workers.

39:75  And you will see the angels circuiting around the throne, glorifying with the praise of their Lord; and it will be decided between them with the truth; and it will be said, 'Praise be to God, the Lord of the worlds.'
