1.
Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High,
2.
Who created and ˹perfectly˺ fashioned ˹all˺,
3.
and Who ordained precisely and inspired accordingly,
4.

5.
then reduces it to withered chaff.
6.
We will have you recite ˹the Quran, O Prophet,˺ so you will not forget ˹any of it˺,

8.
We will facilitate for you the Way of Ease.
9.
So ˹always˺ remind ˹with the Quran˺—˹even˺ if the reminder is beneficial ˹only to some˺.
10.
Those in awe ˹of Allah˺ will be mindful ˹of it˺.
11.
But it will be shunned by the most wretched,
12.
who will burn in the greatest Fire,
13.
where they will not ˹be able to˺ live or die.
14.
Successful indeed are those who purify themselves,
15.
remember the Name of their Lord, and pray.
16.
But you ˹deniers only˺ prefer the life of this world,
17.
even though the Hereafter is far better and more lasting.
18.
This is certainly ˹mentioned˺ in the earlier Scriptures—
19.
the Scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
