قَالُواْ لَمۡ نَكُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُصَلِّينَ

They will say: "We were not of those who prayed;


وَلَمۡ نَكُ نُطۡعِمُ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينَ

"Nor were we of those who fed the indigent;


وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ ٱلۡخَآئِضِينَ

"But we used to talk vanities with vain talkers;


وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ

"And we used to deny the Day of Judgment,


حَتَّىٰٓ أَتَىٰنَا ٱلۡيَقِينُ

"Until there came to us (the Hour) that is certain."


فَمَا تَنفَعُهُمۡ شَفَٰعَةُ ٱلشَّـٰفِعِينَ

Then will no intercession of (any) intercessors profit them.


فَمَا لَهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلتَّذۡكِرَةِ مُعۡرِضِينَ

Then what is the matter with them that they turn away from admonition?-


كَأَنَّهُمۡ حُمُرٞ مُّسۡتَنفِرَةٞ

As if they were affrighted asses,


فَرَّتۡ مِن قَسۡوَرَةِۭ

Fleeing from a lion!


بَلۡ يُرِيدُ كُلُّ ٱمۡرِيٕٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ أَن يُؤۡتَىٰ صُحُفٗا مُّنَشَّرَةٗ

Forsooth, each one of them wants to be given scrolls (of revelation) spread out!
