He will say,
كَذَٰلِكَ
"Thus
أَتَتْكَ
came to you
ءَايَٰتُنَا
Our Signs,
فَنَسِيتَهَا
but you forgot them,
وَكَذَٰلِكَ
and thus
ٱلْيَوْمَ
today
تُنسَىٰ
you will be forgotten."
وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus نَجْزِى We recompense مَنْ (he) who أَسْرَفَ transgresses, وَلَمْ and not يُؤْمِنۢ believes بِـَٔايَٰتِ in (the) Signs رَبِّهِۦ (of) his Lord. وَلَعَذَابُ And surely (the) punishment ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ (of) the Hereafter
أَشَدُّ (is) more severe وَأَبْقَىٰٓ and more lasting. أَفَلَمْ Then has not يَهْدِ it guided لَهُمْ [for] them كَمْ how many أَهْلَكْنَا We (have) destroyed قَبْلَهُم before them, مِّنَ of ٱلْقُرُونِ the generations,
يَمْشُونَ (as) they walk فِى in مَسَٰكِنِهِمْ their dwellings? إِنَّ Indeed, فِى in ذَٰلِكَ that لَءَايَٰتٍ surely (are) Signs لِّأُو۟لِى for possessors ٱلنُّهَىٰ (of) intelligence.
وَلَوْلَا And if not كَلِمَةٌ (for) a Word سَبَقَتْ (that) preceded مِن from رَّبِّكَ your Lord, لَكَانَ surely (would) have been لِزَامًا an obligation وَأَجَلٌ and a term مُّسَمًّى determined.
فَٱصْبِرْ So be patient عَلَىٰ over مَا what يَقُولُونَ they say وَسَبِّحْ and glorify بِحَمْدِ with praise رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord قَبْلَ before طُلُوعِ (the) rising ٱلشَّمْسِ (of) the sun
وَقَبْلَ and before غُرُوبِهَا its setting; وَمِنْ and from ءَانَآئِ (the) hours ٱلَّيْلِ (of) the night, فَسَبِّحْ and glorify وَأَطْرَافَ (at the) ends ٱلنَّهَارِ (of) the day لَعَلَّكَ so that you may
تَرْضَىٰ be satisfied. وَلَا And (do) not تَمُدَّنَّ extend عَيْنَيْكَ your eyes إِلَىٰ towards مَا what مَتَّعْنَا We have given for enjoyment بِهِۦٓ [with it], أَزْوَٰجًا pairs مِّنْهُمْ of them زَهْرَةَ (the) splendor
ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ (of) the life ٱلدُّنْيَا (of) the world, لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ that We may test them فِيهِ in it. وَرِزْقُ And (the) provision رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord خَيْرٌ (is) better وَأَبْقَىٰ and more lasting. وَأْمُرْ And enjoin أَهْلَكَ (on) your family
بِٱلصَّلَوٰةِ the prayer وَٱصْطَبِرْ and be steadfast عَلَيْهَا therein. لَا Not نَسْـَٔلُكَ We ask you رِزْقًا (for) provision; نَّحْنُ We نَرْزُقُكَ provide (for) you, وَٱلْعَٰقِبَةُ and the outcome
لِلتَّقْوَىٰ (is) for the righteous[ness]. وَقَالُوا۟ And they say, لَوْلَا "Why not يَأْتِينَا he brings us بِـَٔايَةٍ a sign مِّن from رَّبِّهِۦٓ his Lord?" أَوَلَمْ Has not تَأْتِهِم come to them
بَيِّنَةُ evidence مَا (of) what فِى (was) in ٱلصُّحُفِ the Scriptures ٱلْأُولَىٰ the former? وَلَوْ And if أَنَّآ We أَهْلَكْنَٰهُم (had) destroyed them بِعَذَابٍ with a punishment
مِّن before him, *[meaning includes next or prev. word] قَبْلِهِۦ before him, *[meaning includes next or prev. word] لَقَالُوا۟ surely they (would) have said, رَبَّنَا "Our Lord, لَوْلَآ why not أَرْسَلْتَ You sent إِلَيْنَا to us رَسُولًا a Messenger, فَنَتَّبِعَ so we (could) have followed
ءَايَٰتِكَ Your signs مِن before *[meaning includes next or prev. word] قَبْلِ before *[meaning includes next or prev. word] أَن [that] نَّذِلَّ we were humiliated وَنَخْزَىٰ and disgraced." قُلْ Say, كُلٌّ "Each مُّتَرَبِّصٌ (is) waiting; فَتَرَبَّصُوا۟ so await.
فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ Then you will know مَنْ who أَصْحَٰبُ (are the) companions ٱلصِّرَٰطِ (of) the way ٱلسَّوِىِّ [the] even, وَمَنِ and who ٱهْتَدَىٰ is guided."
