87: The Most High, Glory to Your Lord in the Highest
|
1 |
Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High,
|
2 |
Who hath created, and further, given order and proportion;
|
3 |
Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance;
|
4 |
And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture,
|
5 |
And then doth make it (but) swarthy stubble.
|
6 |
By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt
not forget,
|
7 |
Except as God wills: For He knoweth what is manifest and what is
hidden.
|
8 |
And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path).
|
9 |
Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer).
|
10 |
The admonition will be received by those who fear (God):
|
11 |
But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones,
|
12 |
Who will enter the Great Fire,
|
13 |
In which they will then neither die nor live.
|
14 |
But those will prosper who purify themselves,
|
15 |
And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts)
in prayer.
|
16 |
Day (behold), ye prefer the life of this world;
|
17 |
But the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
|
18 |
And this is in the Books of the earliest (Revelation),-
|
19 |
The Books of Abraham and Moses.
