77:1  By the [winds] sent forth for a purpose
77:2  and gales that rage on and on,
77:3  scattering things around;
77:4  then dividing them all up,
77:5  and delivering a Reminder
77:6  either as a plea or a warning,
77:7  you (all) are surely promised something inevitable.
77:8  When the stars fade away,
77:9  when the sky splits open,
77:10  when mountains are pulverized
77:11  and when messengers´ time is set,
77:12  till which day will they be put off? The Day for Sorting Things Out
77:13  Till the day for Sorting [things] out!
77:14  What will make you realize what the day for Sorting is?
77:15  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day!
77:16  Did We not wipe out ancient men?
77:17  Then We followed them up with later ones.
77:18  Thus We deal with criminals!
77:19  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day!
77:20  Do We not create you (all) from a despised fluid?
77:21  We place it in a firm resting-place
77:22  for a known period.
77:23  We measure it out and how favored are Those Who measure it!
77:24  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day!
77:25  Have We not placed the earth as a round up
77:26  for the living and the dead?
77:27  We have planted lofty headlands on it and offered you (all) fresh water to drink.
77:28  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day!
77:29  Hurry off to whatever you have been rejecting!
77:30  Hurry away to shade which has three sections,
77:31  which is not shady nor any help against flame.
77:32  It throws off sparks like a palace [on fire],
77:33  [bright] as a yellow camel herd.
77:34  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day!
77:35  This will be a day when they will not utter [a sound];
77:36  nor will they be permitted to offer any excuse.
77:37  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day!
77:38  This is a day for Sorting [things] out; We shall bring you (all) together with the original men.
77:39  If you have any scheme, then scheme against me.
77:40  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day! Those who Do their Duty
77:41  The heedful will be in shady nooks by springs
77:42  and have whatever fruit they may hanker for:
77:43  "Eat and drink at leisure because of what you have been doing."
77:44  Thus We reward those who act kindly.
77:45  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day.
77:46  Eat and enjoy yourselves for a little while, since you are criminals.
77:47  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day.
77:48  When someone told them: "Bow your heads!", they would not bow their heads [in prayer].
77:49  It will be too bad for rejectors on that day.
77:50  Yet what report will they believe in later on?
