سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخۡشَىٰ
The admonition will be received by those who fear (Allah):
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى
But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones,
ٱلَّذِي يَصۡلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ
Who will enter the Great Fire,
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحۡيَىٰ
In which they will then neither die nor live.
قَدۡ أَفۡلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ
But those will prosper who purify themselves,
وَذَكَرَ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ
And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts) in prayer.
بَلۡ تُؤۡثِرُونَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا
Nay (behold), ye prefer the life of this world;
وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرٞ وَأَبۡقَىٰٓ
But the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ
And this is in the Books of the earliest (Revelation),-
صُحُفِ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ
The Books of Abraham and Moses.
