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

77-12 : 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?
