[83.1] Woe unto the defrauders:

[83.2] Those who when they take the measure from mankind demand it full,

[83.3] But if they measure unto them or weight for them, they cause them loss.

[83.4] Do such (men) not consider that they will be raised again

[83.5] Unto an Awful Day,

[83.6] The day when (all) mankind stand before the Lord of the Worlds ?

[83.7] Nay, but the record of the vile is in Sijjin -

[83.8] Ah! what will convey unto thee what Sijjin is! -

[83.9] A written record.

[83.10] Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

[83.11] Those who deny the Day of Judgment

[83.12] Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,

[83.13] Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old.

[83.14] Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts.

[83.15] Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from (the mercy of) their Lord.

[83.16] Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,

[83.17] And it will be said (unto them): This is that which ye used to deny.

[83.18] Nay, but the record of the righteous is in 'Illiyin -

[83.19] Ah, what will convey unto thee what 'Illiyin is! -

[83.20] A written record,

[83.21] Attested by those who are brought near (unto their Lord).

[83.22] Lo! the righteous verily are in delight,

[83.23] On couches, gazing,

[83.24] Thou wilt know in their faces the radiance of delight.

[83.25] They are given to drink of a pure wine, sealed,

[83.26] Whose seal is musk - for this let (all) those strive who strive for bliss -

[83.27] And mixed with water of Tasnim,

[83.28] A spring whence those brought near (to Allah) drink.

[83.29] Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed,

[83.30] And wink one to another when they passed them;

[83.31] And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting;

[83.32] And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray.

[83.33] Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.

[83.34] This day it is those who believe who have the laugh of disbelievers,

[83.35] On high couches, gazing.

[83.36] Are not the disbelievers paid for what they used to do ?
