Verily this is a Revelation from the Lord of the Worlds: 192 The Faithful Spirit has descended with it, 193 To communicate to your heart that you may be a warner 194 in a clear, Arabic tongue. 195 Its news was also mentioned in the ancient Books. 196 Is it not a Sign to them that the Learned of the Children of Israel knew it (as true)? 197 And if We had revealed it (this Quran) unto any of the non-Arabs, 198 And he had recited it to them [perfectly], they would [still] not have been believers in it. 199 Thus have We inserted disbelief into the hearts of the criminals. 200 They will not believe it until they behold the painful punishment. 201 It shall come unto them on a sudden, and they shall not perceive. 202 And they will say, "May we be reprieved?" 203 Do they wish to hasten Our punishment? 204 What do you see? If We gave them enjoyment for years, 205 and then the promised punishment fell upon them, 206 So of what benefit will be the comforts that they were using? 207 And We destroyed no township but it had its warners 208 As a reminder; and never have We been unjust. 209 And the satans have not brought it down. 210 It is not meet for them, nor is it in their power, 211 indeed they are debarred from overhearing it. 212 So do not call upon another god with Allah, lest you should be one of those who are punished. 213 And warn [whomever thou canst reach, beginning with] thy kinsfolk, 214 and be meek to the believers who follow you. 215 So if they do not obey you, then say, "Indeed I am unconcerned with what you do." 216 And put thy trust on the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,- 217 who sees you when you stand 218 And thy movements among those who fall prostrate. 219 Surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing. 220 Should I tell you to whom the satans come? 221 They come to every sinful liar. 222 who lends an ear to them, and most of them are liars. 223 As for poets, only the wayward follow them. 224 Have you not seen how they wander in every valley, 225 And that they say what they do not do? - 226 Except those who believe and do the right, and remember God a great deal, who retaliate only when they have been wronged. Yet the oppressors will now come to know through what reversals they will be overthrown! 227
