83:1  Woe to those that deal in fraud,
83:2  Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure
83:3  But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due
83:4  Do they not think that they will be called to account?
83:5  On a Mighty Day
83:6  A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds
83:7  Day! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin
83:8  And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is
83:9  (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed
83:10  Woe, that Day, to those that deny
83:11  Those that deny the Day of Judgment
83:12  And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner
83:13  When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!"
83:14  By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do
83:15  Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled
83:16  Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell
83:17  Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false
83:18  Day, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin
83:19  And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is
83:20  (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed
83:21  To which bear witness those Nearest (to God)
83:22  Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss
83:23  On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things)
83:24  Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss
83:25  Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed
83:26  The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations
83:27  With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim
83:28  A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to God
83:29  Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed
83:30  And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery)
83:31  And when they returned to their own people, they would return jesting
83:32  And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!"
83:33  But they had not been sent as keepers over them
83:34  But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers
83:35  On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things)
83:36  Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did
