87: The Most High, Glory to Your Lord in the Highest
|
| 1 |
Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High,
|
| 2 |
Who hath created, and further, given order and proportion;
|
| 3 |
Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance;
|
| 4 |
And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture,
|
| 5 |
And then doth make it (but) swarthy stubble.
|
| 6 |
By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt
not forget,
|
| 7 |
Except as God wills: For He knoweth what is manifest and what is
hidden.
|
| 8 |
And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path).
|
| 9 |
Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer).
|
| 10 |
The admonition will be received by those who fear (God):
|
| 11 |
But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones,
|
| 12 |
Who will enter the Great Fire,
|
| 13 |
In which they will then neither die nor live.
|
| 14 |
But those will prosper who purify themselves,
|
| 15 |
And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts)
in prayer.
|
| 16 |
Day (behold), ye prefer the life of this world;
|
| 17 |
But the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
|
| 18 |
And this is in the Books of the earliest (Revelation),-
|
| 19 |
The Books of Abraham and Moses.
