By the sky possessed of constellations
By the Day promised
and by the witness and the witnessed
May they perish, the inhabitants of the pit
the fire well fueled
when they sat by it
and were witness to what they did unto the believers
and took vengeance on them for naught but that they believed in God, the Mighty, the Praised
unto Whom belongs sovereignty over the heavens and the earth; and God is Witness over all things
Truly those who persecute believing men and believing women, then do not repent, theirs shall be the punishment of Hell, and theirs shall be the punishment of the burning
Truly those who believe and perform righteous deeds, theirs shall be Gardens with rivers running below: that is the supreme triumph
Truly thy Lord’s assault is severe
Truly it is He Who originates and brings back
And He is the Forgiving, the Loving
Possessor of the Throne, the Glorious
Doer of whatsoever He will
Hast thou heard tell of the hosts
Pharaoh and Thamud
Yet those who disbelieve are in denial
And God is behind them, All-Encompassing
Nay, it is a glorious Quran
upon a Preserved Tablet
