Ali Quli Qarai, The Qur’ān with a Phrase-by-Phrase English Translation (2005)

indeed they were guilty.
38 We did not create the heavens and the earth
and whatever is between them for play.
39 We did not create them except with reason;
but most of them do not know.
40 Indeed the Day of Judgement
is the tryst for them all,
41 the day
when a friend will not avail a friend in any way,
nor will they be helped,
42 except for him on whom Allah has mercy.
Indeed He is the All-mighty, the All-merciful.

43 Indeed the tree of Zaqqūm
44 will be the food of the sinful.
45 Like molten copper it will boil in the bellies,
46 boiling like boiling water.
47 ‘Seize him
and drag him to the middle of hell,
48 then pour over his head
the punishment of boiling water.’
49 ‘Taste!
Indeed you are the [self-styled] mighty and noble!
50 This is indeed what you used to doubt!’
51 Indeed the Godwary will be in a secure place,
52 amid gardens and springs,
53 dressed in fine silk and brocade,
sitting face to face.
54 So shall it be,
and We shall wed them to black-eyed houris.
