| 77.1 | I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit), |
| 77.2 | By the raging hurricanes, |
| 77.3 | Which scatter clouds to their destined places, |
| 77.4 | Then separate them one from another, |
| 77.5 | Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation, |
| 77.6 | To clear or to warn. |
| 77.7 | Most surely what you are threatened with must come to pass. |
| 77.8 | So when the stars are made to lose their light, |
| 77.9 | And when the heaven is rent asunder, |
| 77.10 | And when the mountains are carried away as dust, |
| 77.11 | And when the apostles are gathered at their appointed time li. To what day is the doom fixed? |
| 77.13 | To the day of decision. |
| 77.14 | And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is? |
| 77.15 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.16 | Did We not destroy the former generations? |
| 77.17 | Then did We follow them up with later ones. |
| 77.18 | Even thus shall We deal with the guilty. |
| 77.19 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.20 | Did We not create you from contemptible water? |
| 77.21 | Then We placed it in a secure resting-place, |
| 77.22 | Till an appointed term, |
| 77.23 | So We proportion it-- how well are We at proportioning (things). |
| 77.24 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.25 | Have We not made the earth to draw together to itself, |
| 77.26 | The living and the dead, |
| 77.27 | And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water? |
| 77.28 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.29 | Walk on to that which you called a lie. |
| 77.30 | Walk on to the covering having three branches, |
| 77.31 | Neither having the coolness of the shade nor availing against the flame. |
| 77.32 | Surely it sends up sparks like palaces, |
| 77.33 | As if they were tawny camels. |
| 77.34 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.35 | This is the day on which they shall not speak, |
| 77.36 | And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses. |
| 77.37 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.38 | This is the day of decision: We have gathered you and those of yore. |
| 77.39 | So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now). |
| 77.40 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.41 | Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be amid shades and fountains, |
| 77.42 | And fruits such as they desire. |
| 77.43 | Eat and drink pleasantly because of what you did. |
| 77.44 | Surely thus do We reward the doers of good. |
| 77.45 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.46 | Eat and enjoy yourselves for a little; surely you are guilty. |
| 77.47 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.48 | And where it is said to them: Bow down, they do not bow down. |
| 77.49 | Woe on that day to the rejecters. |
| 77.50 | In what announcement, then, after it, will they believe? |
