By the night enshrouding |
 |
and the day in splendour |
 |
and That which created the male and the female, |
 |
surely your striving is to diverse ends. |
 |
As for him who gives and is godfearing |
 |
and confirms the reward most fair, |
 |
We shall surely ease him to the Easing. |
 |
But as for him who is a miser, and self-sufficient, |
 |
and cries lies to the reward most fair, |
 |
We shall surely ease him to the Hardship; |
 |
his wealth shall not avail him when he perishes. |
 |
Surely upon Us rests the guidance, |
 |
and to Us belong the Last and the First. |
 |
Now I have warned you of a Fire that flames, |
 |
whereat none but the most wretched shall be roasted, |
