65:8  How many a town rebelled against the commands of its Lord and His messengers and We called them sternly to account and punished them severely
65:9  so they tasted the evil consequences of their conduct and the result of their conduct was ruin
65:10  God has prepared a severe punishment for them. So, fear God, O men of understanding, who have believed. God has sent down to you a Reminde
65:11  and a messenger who conveys to you God's clear messages, so that he might lead those, who believe and do good deeds, out of darkness into light. God will admit those who believe in Him and do good deeds into Gardens with rivers flowing through them, where they will remain forever. God has indeed made excellent provision for them
65:12  It is God who created the seven heavens and the same number of earths. His commandment descends among them, so that you may know that God has power over all things; and that He encompasses all things with His knowledge
