وَيۡلٞ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٖ لُّمَزَةٍ ﰀ ﴿١﴾

Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and-backbiter,

ٱلَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالٗا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ ﰁ ﴿٢﴾

Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,

يَحۡسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخۡلَدَهُۥ ﰂ ﴿٣﴾

Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!

كَلَّاۖ لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِي ٱلۡحُطَمَةِ ﰃ ﴿٤﴾

By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلۡحُطَمَةُ ﰄ ﴿٥﴾

And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?

نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡمُوقَدَةُ ﰅ ﴿٦﴾

(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),

ٱلَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلۡأَفۡـِٔدَةِ ﰆ ﴿٧﴾

The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:

إِنَّهَا عَلَيۡهِم مُّؤۡصَدَةٞ ﰇ ﴿٨﴾

It shall be made into a vault over them,

فِي عَمَدٖ مُّمَدَّدَةِۭ ﰈ ﴿٩﴾

In columns outstretched.
