وَأَنَّهُۥٓ أَهْلَكَ عَادًا ٱلْأُولَىٰ

50 And that He destroyed the former ʿĀd,

وَثَمُودَا۟ فَمَآ أَبْقَىٰ

51 And Thamūd He spared not,

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ هُمْ أَظْلَمَ وَأَطْغَىٰ

52 And the people of Noah before — they were worse in wrongdoing,1 and worse in transgression —

وَٱلْمُؤْتَفِكَةَ أَهْوَىٰ

53 And the overthrown cities1 He cast down,2

فَغَشَّىٰهَا مَا غَشَّىٰ

54 And covered them with what He covered.

فَبِأَىِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكَ تَتَمَارَىٰ

55 Then which of the blessings of thy Lord dost thou dispute?

هَـٰذَا نَذِيرٌ مِّنَ ٱلنُّذُرِ ٱلْأُولَىٰٓ

56 This is a warner1 like2 the former warners.3

أَزِفَتِ ٱلْـَٔازِفَةُ

57 The Drawing Near1 has drawn near.

لَيْسَ لَهَا مِن دُونِ ٱللَّـهِ كَاشِفَةٌ

58 There is none, besides1 God, to remove it.

أَفَمِنْ هَـٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ تَعْجَبُونَ

59 Do you then marvel at this narrative,1

وَتَضْحَكُونَ وَلَا تَبْكُونَ

60 And laugh, and not weep,

وَأَنتُمْ سَـٰمِدُونَ

61 While you are puffed up in heedlessness?1

فَٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِلَّـهِ وَٱعْبُدُوا۟

62 But submit1 to God, and serve.2
