English - Chapter 79 - An-Naziat

I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked

And by those who float in space

Then those who are foremost going ahead

Then those who regulate the affair

The day on which the quaking one shall quake

What must happen afterwards shall follow it

Hearts on that day shall palpitate

Their eyes cast down

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

What! when we are rotten bones

They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss

But it shall be only a single cry

When lo! they shall be wakeful

Has not there come to you the story of Musa

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

Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate

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

And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear

So he showed him the mighty sign

But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed

Then he went back hastily

Then he gathered (men) and called out

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

So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life

Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears

Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it

He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state

And He made dark its night and brought out its light

And the earth, He expanded it after that

He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage

And the mountains, He made them firm

A provision for you and for your cattle

But when the great predominating calamity comes

The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after

And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees

Then as for him who is inordinate

And prefers the life of this world

Then surely the hell, that is the abode

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

Then surely the garden-- that is the abode

They ask you about the hour, when it will come

About what! You are one to remind of it

To your Lord is the goal of it

You are only a warner to him who would fear it

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
