He frowned and turned (his) back
Because there came to him the blind man
And what would make you know that he would purify himself
Or become reminded so that the reminder should profit him
As for him who considers himself free from need (of you)
To him do you address yourself
And no blame is on you if he would not purify himself
And as to him who comes to you striving hard
And he fears
From him will you divert yourself
Nay! surely it is an admonishment
So let him who pleases mind it
In honored books
Exalted, purified
In the hands of scribe
Noble, virtuous
Cursed be man! how ungrateful is he
Of what thing did He create him
Of a small seed; He created him, then He made him according to a measure
Then (as for) the way-- He has made it easy (for him
Then He causes him to die, then assigns to him a grave
Then when He pleases, He will raise him to life again
Nay; but he has not done what He bade him
Then let man look to his food
That We pour down the water, pouring (it) down in abundance
Then We cleave the earth, cleaving (it) asunder
Then We cause to grow therein the grain
And grapes and clover
And the olive and the palm
And thick gardens
And fruits and herbage
A provision for you and for your cattle
But when the deafening cry comes
The day on which a man shall fly from his brother
And his mother and his father
And his spouse and his son-
Every man of them shall on that day have an affair which will occupy him
(Many) faces on that day shall be bright
Laughing, joyous
And (many) faces on that day, on them shall be dust
Darkness shall cover them
These are they who are unbelievers, the wicked
