Have you seen him who turns his back, 33 and gives a little, grudgingly? 34 Does he have knowledge of the unseen, so he sees? 35 Or has he not been informed of what was in the scriptures of Moses 36 and of Abraham, who to his trust was true: 37 that no soul shall bear the burden of another; 38 and that everyone shall have in his account only that which he worked for, 39 and that his work is surely seen 40 and will be fully recompensed for his deeds. 41 And that to your Lord is the goal- 42 That it is He Who granteth Laughter and Tears; 43 and that He it is Who causes death and grants life, 44 That He created pairs, male and female, 45 out of a [mere] drop of sperm as it is poured forth, 46 And that on Him is the bringing forth a second time; 47 and that it is He who gives riches and causes to hoard, 48 and that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius, 49 And that He destroyed the former (tribe of) A'ad, 50 and Thamud tribes, 51 And before them, the people of Noah, for that they were (all) most unjust and most insolent transgressors, 52 And He destroyed the Overthrown Cities (of Sodom and Gomorrah). 53 So that there covered them that which did cover. 54 So which then of your Lord's favors do you dispute? 55 This is a warner from the warners of ancient times. 56 The Day of Judgment is drawing nearer. 57 None but God can avert it. 58 Do you then find these tidings strange? 59 and do you laugh, and do you not weep, 60 while you make merry? 61 [Nay,] but prostrate yourselves before God, and worship [Him alone]! ۩ 62
