86-1 : I swear by the heaven and the comer by night;

86-2 : And what will make you know what the comer by night is?

86-3 : The star of piercing brightness;

86-4 : There is not a soul but over it is a keeper.

86-5 : So let man consider of what he is created:

86-6 : He is created of water pouring forth,

86-7 : Coming from between the back and the ribs.

86-8 : Most surely He is able to return him (to life).

86-9 : On the day when hidden things shall be made manifest,

86-10 : He shall have neither strength nor helper.

86-11 : I swear by the raingiving heavens,

86-12 : And the earth splitting (with plants);

86-13 : Most surely it is a decisive word,

86-14 : And it is no joke.

86-15 : Surely they will make a scheme,

86-16 : And I (too) will make a scheme.

86-17 : So grant the unbelievers a respite: let them alone for a while.
