We sent it down during a Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).
أَمۡرٗا مِّنۡ عِندِنَآۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرۡسِلِينَ ﰄ ﴿٥﴾
By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations),
رَحۡمَةٗ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ ﰅ ﴿٦﴾
As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (all things);
رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَآۖ إِن كُنتُم مُّوقِنِينَ ﰆ ﴿٧﴾
The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all between them, if ye (but) have an assured faith.
لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحۡيِۦ وَيُمِيتُۖ رَبُّكُمۡ وَرَبُّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ﰇ ﴿٨﴾

يَغۡشَى ٱلنَّاسَۖ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٞ ﰊ ﴿١١﴾
Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.
رَّبَّنَا ٱكۡشِفۡ عَنَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤۡمِنُونَ ﰋ ﴿١٢﴾
(They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"
أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَآءَهُمۡ رَسُولٞ مُّبِينٞ ﰌ ﴿١٣﴾
How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them,-
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُواْ مُعَلَّمٞ مَّجۡنُونٌ ﰍ ﴿١٤﴾
Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"

Saying: "Restore to me the Servants of Allah: I am to you an messenger worthy of all trust;
وَأَن لَّا تَعۡلُواْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۖ إِنِّيٓ ءَاتِيكُم بِسُلۡطَٰنٖ مُّبِينٖ ﰒ ﴿١٩﴾

(The reply came:) "March forth with My Servants by night: for ye are sure to be pursued.
وَٱتۡرُكِ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ رَهۡوًاۖ إِنَّهُمۡ جُندٞ مُّغۡرَقُونَ ﰗ ﴿٢٤﴾
"And leave the sea as a furrow (divided): for they are a host (destined) to be drowned."
كَمۡ تَرَكُواْ مِن جَنَّٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ ﰘ ﴿٢٥﴾
How many were the gardens and springs they left behind,
وَنَعۡمَةٖ كَانُواْ فِيهَا فَٰكِهِينَ ﰚ ﴿٢٧﴾
And wealth (and conveniences of life), wherein they had taken such delight!
كَذَٰلِكَۖ وَأَوۡرَثۡنَٰهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِينَ ﰛ ﴿٢٨﴾
Thus (was their end)! And We made other people inherit (those things)!
فَمَا بَكَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُنظَرِينَ ﰜ ﴿٢٩﴾

مِن فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَالِيٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ ﰞ ﴿٣١﴾
Inflicted by Pharaoh, for he was arrogant (even) among inordinate transgressors.
وَلَقَدِ ٱخۡتَرۡنَٰهُمۡ عَلَىٰ عِلۡمٍ عَلَى ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ﰟ ﴿٣٢﴾

وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأٓيَٰتِ مَا فِيهِ بَلَٰٓؤٞاْ مُّبِينٌ ﰠ ﴿٣٣﴾
And granted them Signs in which there was a manifest trial
إِنۡ هِيَ إِلَّا مَوۡتَتُنَا ٱلۡأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُنشَرِينَ ﰢ ﴿٣٥﴾

يَوۡمَ لَا يُغۡنِي مَوۡلًى عَن مَّوۡلٗى شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَا هُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ ﰨ ﴿٤١﴾
The Day when no protector can avail his client in aught, and no help can they receive,
إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ﰩ ﴿٤٢﴾
Except such as receive Allah's Mercy: for He is Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ فِي مَقَامٍ أَمِينٖ ﰲ ﴿٥١﴾
As to the Righteous (they will be) in a position of Security,
يَلۡبَسُونَ مِن سُندُسٖ وَإِسۡتَبۡرَقٖ مُّتَقَٰبِلِينَ ﰴ ﴿٥٣﴾
Dressed in fine silk and in rich brocade, they will face each other;
كَذَٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجۡنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٖ ﰵ ﴿٥٤﴾
So; and We shall join them to fair women with beautiful, big, and lustrous eyes.
يَدۡعُونَ فِيهَا بِكُلِّ فَٰكِهَةٍ ءَامِنِينَ ﰶ ﴿٥٥﴾
There can they call for every kind of fruit in peace and security;
لَا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا ٱلۡمَوۡتَ إِلَّا ٱلۡمَوۡتَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰۖ وَوَقَىٰهُمۡ عَذَابَ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ ﰷ ﴿٥٦﴾
Nor will they there taste Death, except the first death; and He will preserve them from the Penalty of the Blazing Fire,-
