And certainly We created man, and We know what his mind suggests to him, and We are nearer to him than his life-vein. 16 When the two (angels) who keep the account, one sitting on the right, one on the left, take it down, 17 not a word he utters, but by him is an observer ready. 18 And the intoxication of death will bring the truth; that is what you were trying to avoid. 19 And then the Trumpet was blown. This is the day of the promised chastisement. 20 And every human being will come forward with [his erstwhile] inner urges and [his] conscious mind, 21 “You were indeed neglectful of this, so We have removed the veil for you, and your eyesight is sharp this day.” 22 And his companions shall say: This is what is ready with me. 23 (And it will be said): "Both of you throw (Order from Allah to the two angels) into Hell, every stubborn disbeliever (in the Oneness of Allah, in His Messengers, etc.). 24 who hinders good, exceeds the limits, is immersed in doubts, 25 Who made [as equal] with Allah another deity; then throw him into the severe punishment." 26 ۞ His companion will say: O our Lord! caused him not to transgress but he was himself in error far off. 27 He will say: Do not quarrel in My presence, and indeed I gave you the threatening beforehand: 28 and My word shall not be changed, nor am I unjust to My servants." 29
