وَعَنَتِ الوُجوهُ لِلحَيِّ القَيّومِ ۖ وَقَد خابَ مَن حَمَلَ ظُلمًا

All faces will humbly submit to the Ever-Living, the Sustainer. Whoever carries injustice will despair.

وَمَن يَعمَل مِنَ الصّالِحاتِ وَهُوَ مُؤمِنٌ فَلا يَخافُ ظُلمًا وَلا هَضمًا

However, those who performed righteous deeds and are believers won’t fear injustice or deprivation.

وَكَذٰلِكَ أَنزَلناهُ قُرآنًا عَرَبِيًّا وَصَرَّفنا فيهِ مِنَ الوَعيدِ لَعَلَّهُم يَتَّقونَ أَو يُحدِثُ لَهُم ذِكرًا

We revealed this Quran in Arabic, and We diversified the warnings in it, to foster righteousness or serve as a reminder for them.

فَتَعالَى اللَّهُ المَلِكُ الحَقُّ ۗ وَلا تَعجَل بِالقُرآنِ مِن قَبلِ أَن يُقضىٰ إِلَيكَ وَحيُهُ ۖ وَقُل رَبِّ زِدني عِلمًا

Exalted is God, the True King. Don’t hasten with the Quran before its revelation is completed to you, and say, “My Lord, increase me in knowledge.”

وَلَقَد عَهِدنا إِلىٰ آدَمَ مِن قَبلُ فَنَسِيَ وَلَم نَجِد لَهُ عَزمًا

We had previously covenanted with Adam, but he forgot, and We found no resolve in him.

فَقُلنا يا آدَمُ إِنَّ هـٰذا عَدُوٌّ لَكَ وَلِزَوجِكَ فَلا يُخرِجَنَّكُما مِنَ الجَنَّةِ فَتَشقىٰ

We said, “O Adam, this is an enemy to you and your wife. Don’t let him drive you out of Paradise, or you will be miserable.

إِنَّ لَكَ أَلّا تَجوعَ فيها وَلا تَعرىٰ

In it, you will never experience hunger or nakedness.

وَأَنَّكَ لا تَظمَأُ فيها وَلا تَضحىٰ

And you won’t be thirsty or suffer from the sun’s heat.”

فَوَسوَسَ إِلَيهِ الشَّيطانُ قالَ يا آدَمُ هَل أَدُلُّكَ عَلىٰ شَجَرَةِ الخُلدِ وَمُلكٍ لا يَبلىٰ

Then Satan whispered to him, saying, “O Adam, Shall I lead you to the tree of eternity and a kingdom that never decays?”

فَأَكَلا مِنها فَبَدَت لَهُما سَوآتُهُما وَطَفِقا يَخصِفانِ عَلَيهِما مِن وَرَقِ الجَنَّةِ ۚ وَعَصىٰ آدَمُ رَبَّهُ فَغَوىٰ

So they ate from it, and their nakedness was revealed to them. Consequently, they started covering themselves with leaves from the Garden. Adam disobeyed his Lord and strayed.
