Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High
Who hath created, and further, given order and proportion
Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance
And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture
And then doth make it (but) swarthy stubble
By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt not forget
Except as Allah wills: For He knoweth what is manifest and what is hidden
And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path)
Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer)
The admonition will be received by those who fear (Allah)
But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones
Who will enter the Great Fire
In which they will then neither die nor live
But those will prosper who purify themselves
And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts) in prayer
Day (behold), ye prefer the life of this world
But the Hereafter is better and more enduring
And this is in the Books of the earliest (Revelation),
The Books of Abraham and Moses
