Verse 13

يولِجُ اللَّيلَ فِي النَّهارِ وَيولِجُ النَّهارَ فِي اللَّيلِ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمسَ وَالقَمَرَ كُلٌّ يَجري لِأَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ۚ ذٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ رَبُّكُم لَهُ المُلكُ ۚ وَالَّذينَ تَدعونَ مِن دونِهِ ما يَملِكونَ مِن قِطميرٍ

He merges the night into the day, and the day into the night. He subjected the sun and the moon, each running for a specified period. That is God, your Lord; to Him belongs all sovereignty. Those whom you invoke besides Him don’t possess a speck.

Verse 14

إِن تَدعوهُم لا يَسمَعوا دُعاءَكُم وَلَو سَمِعوا مَا استَجابوا لَكُم ۖ وَيَومَ القِيامَةِ يَكفُرونَ بِشِركِكُم ۚ وَلا يُنَبِّئُكَ مِثلُ خَبيرٍ

If you pray to them, they can’t hear your prayer. And if they heard, they couldn’t respond to you. On Resurrection Day, they will deny your association. None can inform you like an Expert.

Verse 15

يا أَيُّهَا النّاسُ أَنتُمُ الفُقَراءُ إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ وَاللَّهُ هُوَ الغَنِيُّ الحَميدُ

O people, you are those in need of God, while God is the Free of need, the Praiseworthy.

Verse 16

إِن يَشَأ يُذهِبكُم وَيَأتِ بِخَلقٍ جَديدٍ

If He wills, He can eliminate you, and bring forth a new creation.

Verse 17

وَما ذٰلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزيزٍ

And this is not difficult for God.

وَلا تَزِرُ وازِرَةٌ وِزرَ أُخرىٰ ۚ وَإِن تَدعُ مُثقَلَةٌ إِلىٰ حِملِها لا يُحمَل مِنهُ شَيءٌ وَلَو كانَ ذا قُربىٰ ۗ إِنَّما تُنذِرُ الَّذينَ يَخشَونَ رَبَّهُم بِالغَيبِ وَأَقامُوا الصَّلاةَ ۚ وَمَن تَزَكّىٰ فَإِنَّما يَتَزَكّىٰ لِنَفسِهِ ۚ وَإِلَى اللَّهِ المَصيرُ

No bearer of burdens can bear the burdens of another. Even if a heavily laden soul cries out for relief, none of its burdens can be lifted, not even by a close relative. Your duty is to warn those who privately fear their Lord and establish prayer. Whoever purifies himself does so for his advantage. The final return is to God.
