you only warn he who follows the remembrance and fears the merciful in the unseen. give to him glad tidings of forgiveness and a generous wage. (11) | | إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الذِّكْرَ وَخَشِيَ الرَّحْمَن بِالْغَيْبِ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ وَأَجْرٍ كَرِيمٍ ﴿11﴾ |
surely, it is we who revive the dead and write down what they have forwarded and what they have left behind; we have counted everything in a clear book. (12) | | إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْيِي الْمَوْتَى وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا وَآثَارَهُمْ وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أحْصَيْنَاهُ فِي إِمَامٍ مُبِينٍ ﴿12﴾ |
give to them a parable; to the people of the village there came messengers, (13) | | وَاضْرِبْ لَهُم مَّثَلًا أَصْحَابَ الْقَرْيَةِ إِذْ جَاءهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ ﴿13﴾ |
we sent to them two, but they belied them so we reinforced them with a third. they said: 'we have surely been sent as messengers to you. ' (14) | | إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْهِمُ اثْنَيْنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا إِلَيْكُم مُّرْسَلُونَ ﴿14﴾ |
but they said: 'you are only humans like ourselves. the merciful has not sent down anything, your speech is but lies! ' (15) | | قَالُوا مَا أَنتُمْ إِلاَّ بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا وَمَا أَنزَلَ الرَّحْمن مِن شَيْءٍ إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلاَّ تَكْذِبُونَ ﴿15﴾ |
they said: 'our lord knows that we are messengers to you. (16) | | قَالُوا رَبُّنَا يَعْلَمُ إِنَّا إِلَيْكُمْ لَمُرْسَلُونَ ﴿16﴾ |
and it is only for us to deliver a clear message. ' (17) | | وَمَا عَلَيْنَا إِلاَّ الْبَلاَغُ الْمُبِينُ ﴿17﴾ |
they answered: 'we predict evil of you. if you do not desist, we will stone you and a painful punishment from us will befall you. ' (18) | | قَالُوا إِنَّا تَطَيَّرْنَا بِكُمْ لَئِن لَّمْ تَنتَهُوا لَنَرْجُمَنَّكُمْ وَلَيَمَسَّنَّكُم مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ﴿18﴾ |
they said: 'your prediction is with you, if you are reminded. surely, you are but a wayward nation. ' (19) | | قَالُوا طَائِرُكُمْ مَعَكُمْ أَئِن ذُكِّرْتُم بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّسْرِفُونَ ﴿19﴾ |
then, a man came running from the furthest part of the village 'my nation, ' he said, 'follow the messengers, (20) | | وَجَاء مِنْ أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٌ يَسْعَى قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ اتَّبِعُوا الْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿20﴾ |
