By the sky, with its constellations of stars

Waalssama-i thati alburooji

وَالْيَوْمِ الْمَوْعُودِ

And by the Day [of Judgment] promised

وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ

And witnessed what they did to the believers!

Wahum AAala ma yafAAaloona bialmu/mineena shuhoodun

وَمَا نَقَمُوا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا أَن يُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ

And they took vengeance on them for nothing else but that they believed in Allah, the Omnipotent, the Embodiment of Praise

Surely indeed, those who persecute believing men and believing women and repent not — for them will be the punishment of Hell, and for them the punishment by the Fire

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ ذَٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْكَبِيرُ

Surely indeed, those who believe and do good deeds — for them will be Gardens underneath which rivers flow. That is the Greatest Success

Inna allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati lahum jannatun tajree min tahtiha al-anharu thalika alfawzu alkabeeru

إِنَّ بَطْشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَدِيدٌ

Indeed, the Hold of your Lord is certainly severe

Inna batsha rabbika lashadeedun

إِنَّهُ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ

It is He indeed Who does the original creation, and Who is capable of resurrecting His original creation when it is dead

Innahu huwa yubdi-o wayuAAeedu

بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فِي تَكْذِيبٍ

Yet, [despite knowing the story of how those ancient peoples were destroyed for their transgressions] those that suppress the Truth live in denial

Bali allatheena kafaroo fee taktheebin

وَاللَّهُ مِن وَرَائِهِم مُّحِيطٌ

And Allah surrounds them unawares

WaAllahu min wara-ihim muheetun

بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَّجِيدٌ

Nay, [non-believers' denial notwithstanding,] this is a glorious Qur'an
