۞ O men, you are the ones that have need of God; He is the All-sufficient, the All-laudable. 15 If He please, He will take you off and bring a new generation. 16 nor is this difficult for God. 17 And no burdened soul can bear another's burden, and if one heavy laden crieth for (help with) his load, naught of it will be lifted even though he (unto whom he crieth) be of kin. Thou warnest only those who fear their Lord in secret, and have established worship. He who groweth (in goodness), groweth only for himself, (he cannot by his merit redeem others). Unto Allah is the journeying. 18 And the blind and the seeing are not alike 19 the shadows and the light, 20 The shade and the hot wind are not equal, 21 Equal are not the living and the dead. Verily God makes those He will to listen; but you cannot make those hear who are in their graves. 22 You are simply a warner. 23 Indeed, We have sent you with the truth as a bringer of good tidings and a warner. And there was no nation but that there had passed within it a warner. 24 And if they deny thee, those before them also denied. Their messengers came unto them with clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty), and with the Psalms and the Scripture giving light. 25 [but] in the end I took to task all those who were bent on denying the truth: and how awesome was My rejection! 26
