وَلَمۡ أَدۡرِ مَا حِسَابِيَهۡ

and knew nothing of my Reckoning.


يَٰلَيۡتَهَا كَانَتِ ٱلۡقَاضِيَةَ

How I wish death had been the end of me.


مَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنِّي مَالِيَهۡۜ

My wealth has been no use to me,


هَلَكَ عَنِّي سُلۡطَٰنِيَهۡ

and my power has vanished.’


خُذُوهُ فَغُلُّوهُ

‘Take him, put a collar on him,


ثُمَّ ٱلۡجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ

lead him to burn in the blazing Fire,


ثُمَّ فِي سِلۡسِلَةٖ ذَرۡعُهَا سَبۡعُونَ ذِرَاعٗا فَٱسۡلُكُوهُ

and [bind him] in a chain seventy metres long:


إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ

he would not believe in Almighty God,


وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينِ

he never encouraged feeding the hungry,


فَلَيۡسَ لَهُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ هَٰهُنَا حَمِيمٞ

so today he has no real friend here,


وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنۡ غِسۡلِينٖ

and the only food he has is the filth
