وَجَآءَفِرْعَوْنُوَمَنقَبْلَهُۥوَٱلْمُؤْتَفِكَـٰتُبِٱلْخَاطِئَةِ٩

And there came Pharaoh and those before him and the overturned cities¹ with sin.

And they disobeyed the messenger of their Lord, so He seized them with a seizure exceeding [in severity].

Indeed, when the water overflowed, We carried you [i.e., your ancestors] in the sailing ship¹

That We might make it for you a reminder and [that] a conscious ear would be conscious of it.

Then when the Horn is blown with one blast

And the earth and the mountains are lifted and leveled with one blow [i.e., stroke] -

Then on that Day, the Occurrence [i.e., Resurrection] will occur,

And the heaven will split [open], for that Day it is infirm.¹

And the angels are at its edges. And there will bear the Throne of your Lord above them, that Day, eight [of them].

That Day, you will be exhibited [for judgement]; not hidden among you is anything concealed.¹

So as for he who is given his record in his right hand, he will say, "Here, read my record!

Indeed, I was certain that I would be meeting my account."

So he will be in a pleasant life -

In an elevated garden,

Its [fruit] to be picked hanging near.

[They will be told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you put forth¹ in the days past."

But as for he who is given his record in his left hand, he will say, "Oh, I wish I had not been given my record

And had not known what is my account.

I wish it [i.e., my death] had been the decisive one.¹

My wealth has not availed me.

Gone from me is my authority."¹

[Allāh will say], "Seize him and shackle him.

Then into Hellfire drive him.

Then into a chain whose length is seventy cubits insert him."

Indeed, he did not used to believe in Allāh, the Most Great,

Nor did he encourage the feeding of the poor.
