وَجُنودُ إِبليسَ أَجمَعونَ

And all of the forces of evil.

قالوا وَهُم فيها يَختَصِمونَ

They will be bickering therein, saying.

تَاللَّهِ إِن كُنّا لَفي ضَلالٍ مُبينٍ

“By God, we were in manifest error.

إِذ نُسَوّيكُم بِرَبِّ العالَمينَ

When we equated you with the Lord of the worlds.

وَما أَضَلَّنا إِلَّا المُجرِمونَ

It was only the transgressors who misled us.

وَلا صَديقٍ حَميمٍ

And no loyal friend.

فَلَو أَنَّ لَنا كَرَّةً فَنَكونَ مِنَ المُؤمِنينَ

If only we had another chance, so that we could be believers.”

إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَما كانَ أَكثَرُهُم مُؤمِنينَ

There is a lesson in this, but most of them aren’t believers.

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ

Your Lord, indeed, is the Almighty, the Most Merciful.

كَذَّبَت قَومُ نوحٍ المُرسَلينَ

The people of Noah denied the messengers.
