[Shakir 69:8] Do you then see of them one remaining?
[Pickthal 69:8] Canst thou (O Muhammad) see any remnant of them?

[Yusufali 69:13] Then, when one blast is sounded on the Trumpet,
وَحُمِلَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَالْجِبَالُ فَدُكَّتَا دَكَّةً وَاحِدَةً {14}
[Shakir 69:14] And the earth and the mountains are borne away and crushed with a single crushing.
[Pickthal 69:14] And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash,
[Yusufali 69:14] And the earth is moved, and its mountains, and they are crushed to powder at one stroke,-
فَيَوْمَئِذٍ وَقَعَتِ الْوَاقِعَةُ {15}

[Pickthal 69:23] Whereof the clusters are in easy reach.
[Yusufali 69:23] The Fruits whereof (will hang in bunches) low and near.

[Pickthal 69:27] Oh, would that it had been death!
[Yusufali 69:27] "Ah! Would that (Death) had made an end of me!
مَا أَغْنَىٰ عَنِّي مَالِيَهْۜ
{28}

[Yusufali 69:30] (The stern command will say): "Seize ye him, and bind ye him,
ثُمَّ الْجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ {31}
[Shakir 69:31] Then cast him into the burning fire,
[Pickthal 69:31] And then expose him to hell-fire
[Yusufali 69:31] "And burn ye him in the Blazing Fire.

[Pickthal 69:32] And then insert him in a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits.
[Yusufali 69:32] "Further, make him march in a chain, whereof the length is seventy cubits!
إِنَّهُ كَانَ لَا يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ {33}
[Shakir 69:33] Surely he did not believe in Allah, the Great,
[Pickthal 69:33] Lo! He used not to believe in Allah the Tremendous,
[Yusufali 69:33] "This was he that would not believe in Allah Most High.
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ {34}
[Shakir 69:34] Nor did he urge the feeding of the poor.
[Pickthal 69:34] And urged not on the feeding of the wretched.
[Yusufali 69:34] "And would not encourage the feeding of the indigent!
فَلَيْسَ لَهُ الْيَوْمَ هَاهُنَا حَمِيمٌ {35}
[Shakir 69:35] Therefore he has not here today a true friend,
[Pickthal 69:35] Therefor hath he no lover here this day,
[Yusufali 69:35] "So no friend hath he here this Day.
وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنْ غِسْلِينٍ {36}
[Shakir 69:36] Nor any food except refuse,
[Pickthal 69:36] Nor any food save filth
[Yusufali 69:36] "Nor hath he any food except the corruption from the washing of wounds,
لَا يَأْكُلُهُ إِلَّا الْخَاطِئُونَ {37}
[Shakir 69:37] Which none but the wrongdoers eat.
[Pickthal 69:37] Which none but sinners eat.
[Yusufali 69:37] "Which none do eat but those in sin."
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُونَ {38}
[Shakir 69:38] But nay! I swear by that which you see,
[Pickthal 69:38] But nay! I swear by all that ye see
[Yusufali 69:38] So I do call to witness what ye see,
وَمَا لَا تُبْصِرُونَ {39}
[Shakir 69:39] And that which you do not see.
[Pickthal 69:39] And all that ye see not
[Yusufali 69:39] And what ye see not,
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ {40}
[Shakir 69:40] Most surely, it is the Word brought by an honored Messenger,
[Pickthal 69:40] That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger.
[Yusufali 69:40] That this is verily the word of an honoured messenger;
وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍۚ
قَلِيلًا مَا تُؤْمِنُونَ {41}
[Shakir 69:41] And it is not the word of a poet; little is it that you believe;
[Pickthal 69:41] It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe!
[Yusufali 69:41] It is not the word of a poet: little it is ye believe!
وَلَا بِقَوْلِ كَاهِنٍۚ
قَلِيلًا مَا تَذَكَّرُونَ {42}
[Shakir 69:42] Nor the word of a soothsayer; little is it that you mind.
[Pickthal 69:42] Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember!
[Yusufali 69:42] Nor is it the word of a soothsayer: little admonition it is ye receive.
تَنْزِيلٌ مِنْ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ {43}
[Shakir 69:43] It is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
[Pickthal 69:43] It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
[Yusufali 69:43] (This is) a Message sent down from the Lord of the Worlds.
وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيْنَا بَعْضَ الْأَقَاوِيلِ {44}
[Shakir 69:44] And if he had fabricated against Us some of the sayings,
[Pickthal 69:44] And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us,
[Yusufali 69:44] And if the messenger were to invent any sayings in Our name,
لَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِالْيَمِينِ {45}
[Shakir 69:45] We would certainly have seized him by the right hand,
[Pickthal 69:45] We assuredly had taken him by the right hand
[Yusufali 69:45] We should certainly seize him by his right hand,
ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ الْوَتِينَ {46}
[Shakir 69:46] Then We would certainly have cut off his aorta.
[Pickthal 69:46] And then severed his life-artery,
[Yusufali 69:46] And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart:
فَمَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ عَنْهُ حَاجِزِينَ {47}
[Shakir 69:47] And not one of you could have withheld Us from him.
[Pickthal 69:47] And not one of you could have held Us off from him.
[Yusufali 69:47] Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath).
وَإِنَّهُ لَتَذْكِرَةٌ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ {48}
[Shakir 69:48] And most surely it is a reminder for those who guard (against evil).
[Pickthal 69:48] And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil).
[Yusufali 69:48] But verily this is a Message for the Allah-fearing.
وَإِنَّا لَنَعْلَمُ أَنَّ مِنْكُمْ مُكَذِّبِينَ {49}
[Shakir 69:49] And most surely We know that some of you are rejecters.
[Pickthal 69:49] And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it).
[Yusufali 69:49] And We certainly know that there are amongst you those that reject (it).
وَإِنَّهُ لَحَسْرَةٌ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ {50}
[Shakir 69:50] And most surely it is a great grief to the unbelievers.
[Pickthal 69:50] And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers.
[Yusufali 69:50] But truly (Revelation) is a cause of sorrow for the Unbelievers.
وَإِنَّهُ لَحَقُّ الْيَقِينِ {51}
[Shakir 69:51] And most surely it is the true certainty
[Pickthal 69:51] And lo! it is absolute truth.
[Yusufali 69:51] But verily it is Truth of assured certainty.
فَسَبِّحْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الْعَظِيمِ {52}
[Shakir 69:52] Therefore-glorify the name of your Lord, the Great.
[Pickthal 69:52] So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord.
[Yusufali 69:52] So glorify the name of thy Lord Most High.
