85:1  By heaven of the constellations
85:2  by the promised day
85:3  by the witness and the witnessed
85:4  slain were the Men of the Pit
85:5  the fire abounding in fuel
85:6  when they were seated over i
85:7  and were themselves witnesses of what they did with the believers
85:8  They took revenge on them only because they believed in the All-mighty, the Al-laudable
85:9  God to whom belongs the Kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and God is Witness over everything
85:10  Those who persecute the believers, men and women, and then have not repented, there awaits them the chastisement of Gehenna, and there awaits them the chastisement of the burning
85:11  Those who believe, and do righteous deeds, for them await gardens underneath which rivers flow; that is the great triumph
85:12  Surely thy Lord's assault is terrible
85:13  Surely it is He who originates, and brings again
85:14  and He is the All-forgiving, the All-loving
85:15  Lord of the Throne, the All-glorious
85:16  Performer of what He desires
85:17  Hast thou received the story of the hosts
85:18  Pharaoh and Thamood
85:19  Nay, but the unbelievers still cry lies
85:20  and God is behind them, encompassing
85:21  Nay, but it is a glorious Koran
85:22  in a guarded tablet
