وَلِسَانٗا وَشَفَتَيۡنِ

(90:9) and a tongue and two lips?9


وَهَدَيۡنَٰهُ ٱلنَّجۡدَيۡنِ

(90:10) And did We not show him the two highroads (of good and evil)?0


فَلَا ٱقۡتَحَمَ ٱلۡعَقَبَةَ

(90:11) But he did not venture to scale the difficult steep.1


وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلۡعَقَبَةُ

(90:12) And what do you know what that difficult steep is?


فَكُّ رَقَبَةٍ

(90:13) It is freeing someone's neck from slavery;


أَوۡ إِطۡعَٰمٞ فِي يَوۡمٖ ذِي مَسۡغَبَةٖ

(90:14) or giving food on a day of hunger


يَتِيمٗا ذَا مَقۡرَبَةٍ

(90:15) to an orphan near of kin;


أَوۡ مِسۡكِينٗا ذَا مَتۡرَبَةٖ

(90:16) or to a destitute lying in dust;2


ثُمَّ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَتَوَاصَوۡاْ بِٱلصَّبۡرِ وَتَوَاصَوۡاْ بِٱلۡمَرۡحَمَةِ

(90:17) and, then besides this, he be one of those who believed,3
and enjoined upon one another steadfastness and enjoined upon one another compassion.4
