Verses
which We then let remain in [the womb's] firm keeping
for a term pre-ordained?
Thus have We determined [the nature of man's creation]: and excellent indeed is Our power to determine [what is to be]!
Woe, on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth!
Have We not caused the earth to hold within itself
the living and the dead?
and have We not set on it proud, firm mountains, and given you sweet water to drink?
Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth!
GO ON towards that [resurrection] which you were wont to call a lie!
Go on towards the threefold shadow
that will offer no [cooling] shade and will be of no avail against the flame
which – behold!- will throw up sparks like [burning] logs,
like giant fiery ropes!
Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth –
that Day on which they will not [be able to] utter a word,
nor be allowed to proffer excuses!
Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth –
that Day of Distinction [between the true and the false, when they will be told]: "We have brought you together with those [sinners] of olden times;
and if you [think that you] have a subterfuge left, try to outwit Me!"
Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth!
