In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

"79.1":    I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked,

"79.2":    And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed,

"79.3":    And by those who float in space,

"79.4":    Then those who are foremost going ahead,

"79.5":     Then those who regulate the affair.

"79.6":    The day on which the quaking one shall quake,

"79.7":    What must happen afterwards shall follow it.

"79.8":    Hearts on that day shall palpitate,

"79.9":    Their eyes cast down.

"79.10":    They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?

"79.11":    What! when we are rotten bones?

"79.12":    They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.

"79.13":    But it shall be only a single cry,

"79.14":    When lo! they shall be wakeful.

"79.15":    Has not there come to you the story of Musa?

"79.16":    When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,

"79.17":    Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.

"79.18":    Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:

"79.19":    And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.

"79.20":    So he showed him the mighty sign.

"79.21":    But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.

"79.22":    Then he went back hastily.

"79.23":    Then he gathered (men) and called out.

"79.24":    Then he said: I am your lord, the most high.

"79.25":    So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.

"79.26":    Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.

"79.27":    Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.

"79.28":    He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state.

"79.29":    And He made dark its night and brought out its light.

"79.30":    And the earth, He expanded it after that.

"79.31":    He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage.

"79.32":    And the mountains, He made them firm,

"79.33":    A provision for you and for your cattle.

"79.34":    But when the great predominating calamity comes;

"79.35":    The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after,

"79.36":    And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees

"79.37":    Then as for him who is inordinate,

"79.38":    And prefers the life of this world,

"79.39":    Then surely the hell, that is the abode.

"79.40":    And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires,

"79.41":    Then surely the garden -- that is the abode.

"79.42":    They ask you about the hour, when it will come.

"79.43":    About what! You are one to remind of it.

"79.44":    To your Lord is the goal of it.

"79.45":    You are only a warner to him who would fear it.

"79.46":    On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it.
