CHAPTER 64.  THE MUTUAL LOSS AND GAIN                      SECTION 1.  PART XXVIII

IN THE NAME OF GOD
THE BENEFICENT AND MERCIFUL GOD

1  EVERYTHING IN HEAVEN AND EARTH DECLARES GOD'S GLORY 
TO HIM BELONGS THE SOVEREIGNTY 
TO HIM BELONGS PRAISE AND DIGNITY
AND ALL POWER OVER ALL THINGS HAS HE

2  IT IS HE WHO IS YOUR CREATOR 
AND SOME OF YOU ARE DISBELIEVERS
AND SOME OTHERS OF YOU ARE BELIEVERS
AND OF ALL THAT YOU DO YOUR LORD IS THE SEER 

3  HE HAS CREATED HEAVEN AND EARTH IN JUST PROPORTIONS 
AND HAS GIVEN YOU SHAPES IN BEAUTIFUL FORMATIONS 
AND TO HIM IS THE FINAL DESTINATION

4  HE KNOWS WHAT IS IN THE EARTH AND IN THE HEAVENS 
HE KNOWS WHAT YOU REVEAL AND WHAT YOU KEEP HIDDEN 
YES GOD KNOWS WELL THE SECRETS THE HEARTS KEEP WITHIN

5  HAS NOT REACH YOU THE STORY  
OF THOSE WHO REJECTED FAITH PREVIOUSLY?
THEY TASTED THE EVIL RESULT OF THEIR FOLLY
AND THEY HAD TO ENDURE A GRIEVOUS PENALTY

6  THAT WAS BECAUSE THERE CAME TO THEM MESSENGERS
BRINGING TO THEM CLEAR MESSAGES AND SCRIPTURES
BUT THEY SAID, WILL HUMANS BE OUR DIRECTORS? 
SO OF THE MESSAGES THEY BECAME REJECTORS  
BUT GOD CAN DO WITHOUT THEM AS HELPERS
FOR GOD IS FREE OF ALL NEEDS AND EXALTED IN POWER

7  THE DISBELIEVERS THINK THAT RAISED UP THEY WILL NOT BE  
SAY, YES, BY MY LORD YOU WILL BE RAISED UP SURELY
THEN WILL YOU BE TOLD OF ALL THAT YOU DID TRUTHFULLY
AND SURELY FOR GOD THAT IS NO DIFFICULTY

8  BELIEVE THEREFORE IN GOD AND THE MESSENGER
AND IN THE LIGHT WE SENT DOWN MAKING THINGS CLEAR
AND OF ALL THAT YOU DO GOD IS THE SEER

9  THE DAY THAT YOUR LORD ASSEMBLES ALL OF YOU TOGETHER 
THAT WILL BE A DAY OF LOSS FOR SOME AND GAIN FOR OTHERS
AND THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN GOD AND ARE RIGHTEOUS DOERS
HE WILL REMOVE FROM THEM THEIR ILLS AND ERRORS
AND WILL ADMIT THEM TO GARDENS WHEREIN FLOW RIVERS  
AND THEY WILL DWELL IN THEM FOR EVER 
THAT WILL BE THE SUPREME FAVOR

10  BUT THOSE WHO ARE DISBELIEVERS
AND TREAT OUR MESSENGERS AS LIARS
THEY WILL BE COMPANIONS OF THE FIRE 
THEY WILL DWELL IN IT FOR EVER 
AN EVIL DESTINY OF TERROR

11  AND NO KIND OF CALAMITY CAN OCCUR 
EXCEPT BY THE LEAVE OF THE CREATOR
AND ANY ONE THAT IS A BELIEVER 
GOD GUIDES HIS HEART FOR GOD IS THE BEST KNOWER

12  SO OBEY GOD AND OBEY HIS MESSENGER 
BUT IF YOU TURN BACK THE DUTY OF THE MESSENGER 
IS ONLY TO PROCLAIM THE MESSAGE CLEAR

13  GOD, THERE IS NO GOD BUT HE 
ON GOD LET THE BELIEVERS PUT THEIR TRUST COMPLETELY

14  OH YOU WHO ARE BELIEVERS 
AMONG YOUR CHILDREN AND YOUR MARITAL PARTNERS
ARE ENEMIES TO YOU SO OF THEM BEWARE 
BUT IF THEIR FAULTS YOU WILL COVER
YOUR LORD IS THE MOST MERCIFUL FORGIVER 

15  YOUR RICHES AND YOUR CHILDREN MAY BE  A TRIAL TO YOU
BUT WITH YOUR LORD IS THE GREATEST REWARD FOR YOU

16  SO FEAR GOD AND KEEP YOUR DUTY 
AND LISTEN AND OBEY AND SPEND IN CHARITY 
FOR THE BENEFIT OF YOURSELVES AND THOSE WHO ARE NOT GREEDY 
THEY ARE THE ONES THAT WILL ACHIEVE PROSPERITY

17  IF YOU LOAN A BEAUTIFUL LOAN TO YOUR CREATOR
HE WILL DOUBLE IT TO YOUR CREDIT AND MAKE IT GREATER
AND FORGIVE YOU FOR HE IS THE MOST MERCIFUL FORGIVER 

18  KNOWER OF WHAT IS DONE SECRETLY AND OPENLY
FOR HE IS ALL WISE AND ALL MIGHTY
