وَاتَّقُوا الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ وَالْجِبِلَّةَ الْأَوَّلِينَ

Wattaqul lazee khalaqakum waljibillatal awwaleen

And fear He who created you and the former creation."

قَالُوا إِنَّمَا أَنتَ مِنَ الْمُسَحَّرِينَ

Qaalooo innamaa anta minal musahhareen

They said, "You are only of those affected by magic.

وَمَا أَنتَ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا وَإِن نَّظُنُّكَ لَمِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ

Wa maaa anta illaa basharum mislunaa wa innazunnuka laminal kaazibeen

You are but a man like ourselves, and indeed, we think you are among the liars.

فَأَسْقِطْ عَلَيْنَا كِسَفًا مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ

Fa asqit 'alainaa kisafam minas samaaa'i in kunta minas saadiqeen

So cause to fall upon us fragments of the sky, if you should be of the truthful."

قَالَ رَبِّي أَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ

Qaala Rabbeee a'lamu bimaa ta'maloon

He said, "My Lord is most knowing of what you do."

فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمِ الظُّلَّةِ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ

Fakazzaboohu fa akhazahum 'azaabu Yawmiz zullah; innahoo kaana 'azaaba Yawmin 'Azeem

And they denied him, so the punishment of the day of the black cloud seized them. Indeed, it was the punishment of a terrible day.

إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

Inna fee zaalika la Aayah; wa maa kaana aksaruhum mu'mineen

Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ

Wa inna Rabbaka la huwal 'Azeezur Raheem

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

وَإِنَّهُ لَتَنزِيلُ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ

Wa innahoo latanzeelu Rabbil 'aalameen

And indeed, the Qur'an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds.

نَزَلَ بِهِ الرُّوحُ الْأَمِينُ

Nazala bihir Roohul Ameen

The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down

عَلَىٰ قَلْبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُنذِرِينَ

'Alaa qalbika litakoona minal munzireen

Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] - that you may be of the warners -

بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ مُّبِينٍ

Bilisaanin 'Arabiyyim mubeen

In a clear Arabic language.

وَإِنَّهُ لَفِي زُبُرِ الْأَوَّلِينَ

Wa innahoo lafee Zuburil awwaleen

And indeed, it is [mentioned] in the scriptures of former peoples.

أَوَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُمْ آيَةً أَن يَعْلَمَهُ عُلَمَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ

Awalam yakul lahum Aayatan ai ya'lamahoo 'ulamaaa'u Baneee Israaa'eel

And has it not been a sign to them that it is recognized by the scholars of the Children of Israel?

وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَاهُ عَلَىٰ بَعْضِ الْأَعْجَمِينَ

Wa law nazzalnaahu 'alaa ba'dil a'jameen

And even if We had revealed it to one among the foreigners

فَقَرَأَهُ عَلَيْهِم مَّا كَانُوا بِهِ مُؤْمِنِينَ

Faqara ahoo 'alaihim maa kaanoo bihee mu'mineen

And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it.

كَذَٰلِكَ سَلَكْنَاهُ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ

Kazaalika salaknaahu fee quloobil mujrimeen

Thus have We inserted disbelief into the hearts of the criminals.

لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُا الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ

Laa yu'minoona bihee hattaa yarawul 'azaabal aleem

They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment.

فَيَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ

Fayaatiyahum baghtatanw wa hum laa yash'uroon

And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not.

فَيَقُولُوا هَلْ نَحْنُ مُنظَرُونَ

Fa yaqooloo hal nahnu munzaroon

And they will say, "May we be reprieved?"

أَفَبِعَذَابِنَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونَ

Aafabi 'azaabinaa yasta'jiloon

So for Our punishment are they impatient?

أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِن مَّتَّعْنَاهُمْ سِنِينَ

Aara'aita im matta'naahum sineen

Then have you considered if We gave them enjoyment for years

ثُمَّ جَاءَهُم مَّا كَانُوا يُوعَدُونَ

Summa jaaa'ahum maa kaanoo yoo'adoon

And then there came to them that which they were promised?
