Marmaduke Pickthall, The Meaning of The Glorious Koran. An Explanatory Translation (1930)
9. Outcast, and theirs is a perpetual torment;
10. Save Kim who snatcheth a fragment, and there pursueth him a piercing flame.1
11. Then ask them (O Muhammad): Are they stronger as a creation, or those (others) whom We have created? Lo! We created them of plastic clay.
12. Nay, but thou dost marvel when they mock
13. And heed not when they are reminded,
14. And seek to scoff when they behold a portent.
15. And they say: lo! this is mere magic;
16. When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised (again)?
17. And our forefathers?
18. Say (O Muhammad): Yea, in truth; and ye will be brought low.
19. There is but one Shout, and lo! they behold,
20. And say: Ah, woe for us! This is the Day of Judgement.
21. This is the Day of Separation, which ye used to deny.
22. (And it is said unto the angels): Assemble those who did wrong, together with their wives and what they used to worship
23. Instead of Allah, and lead them to the path to hell;
24. And stop them, for they must be questioned.
25. What aileth you that ye help not one another?
26. Nay, but this day they make full submission.
27. And some of them draw near unto others, mutually questioning.
28. They say: Lo! ye used to come unto us, imposing, (swearing that ye spoke the truth).
29. They answer: Nay, but ye (yourselves) were not believers.
30. We had no power over you, but ye were wayward folk.
1 LXXII, 8–10; LXVII, 5.
