وَزَوَّجْنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍۢ
And We will marry them to fair women with large, \[beautiful] eyes.

And those who believed and whose descendants followed them in faith—
أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ
We will join with them their descendants,
وَمَآ أَلَتْنَـٰهُم مِّنْ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَىْءٍۢ ۚ

كُلُّ ٱمْرِئٍۢ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌۭ
Every person, for what he earned, is retained.

And We will provide them with fruit and meat from whatever they desire.
23. يَتَنَـٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأْسًۭا لَّا لَغْوٌۭ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأْثِيمٌۭ
There they will pass to one another a cup \[of wine] wherein is no ill speech or sin.

There will circulate among them \[servant] boys \[especially] for them, as if they were pearls well-protected.

They will say, “Indeed, we were previously among our people fearful \[of displeasing Allah].

So Allah conferred favor upon us and protected us from the punishment of the scorching fire.
28. إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبْلُ نَدْعُوهُ ۖ
Indeed, we used to supplicate Him before.
إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
Indeed, it is He who is the Beneficent, the Merciful.”
29. فَذَكِّرْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍۢ وَلَا مَجْنُونٍۢ
So remind \[them], for by the favor of your Lord, you are neither a soothsayer nor a madman.
30. أَمْ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٌۭ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَيْبَ ٱلْمَنُونِ
Or do they say, “A poet — we await for him a misfortune of time”?
31. قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوا۟ فَإِنِّى مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُتَرَبِّصِينَ
Say, “Wait, for indeed I am, with you, among those who wait.”
32. أَمْ تَأْمُرُهُمْ أَحْلَـٰمُهُم بِهَـٰذَآ أَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌۭ طَاغُونَ
Or do their minds command them to \[say] this, or are they a transgressing people?
33. أَمْ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُۥ ۚ بَل لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ
Or do they say, “He has made it up”? Rather, they do not believe.
34. فَلْيَأْتُوا۟ بِحَدِيثٍۢ مِّثْلِهِۦٓ إِن كَانُوا۟ صَـٰدِقِينَ
Then let them produce a statement like it, if they should be truthful.
35. أَمْ خُلِقُوا۟ مِنْ غَيْرِ شَىْءٍ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْخَـٰلِقُونَ
Or were they created by nothing, or were they the creators \[of themselves]?
36. أَمْ خَلَقُوا۟ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ ۚ بَل لَّا يُوقِنُونَ
Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain.
37. أَمْ عِندَهُمْ خَزَآئِنُ رَبِّكَ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْمُصَيْطِرُونَ
Or have they the depositories of your Lord, or are they the controllers \[of them]?
38. أَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌۭ يَسْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ ۖ
Or have they a stairway \[into the heaven] upon which they listen?
فَلْيَأْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُم بِسُلْطَـٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ
Then let their listener produce a clear authority.
39. أَمْ لَهُ ٱلْبَنَاتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ
Or has He daughters while you have sons?
40. أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ أَجْرًۭا فَهُم مِّن مَّغْرَمٍۢ مُّثْقَلُونَ
Or do you ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down?
41. أَمْ عِندَهُمُ ٱلْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ
Or have they \[knowledge of] the unseen, so they write \[it] down?
42. أَمْ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدًۭا ۖ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْمَكِيدُونَ
Or do they intend a plan? But those who disbelieve – they are the object of a plan.
43. أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَـٰهٌ غَيْرُ ٱللَّهِ ۚ
Or have they a deity other than Allah?
سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him.
44. وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ كِسْفًۭا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ سَاقِطًۭا يَقُولُوا۟ سَحَابٌۭ مَّرْكُومٌۭ
And if they were to see a fragment from the sky falling, they would say, “\[It is merely] a mass of clouds.”
45. فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يُلَـٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ
So leave them until they meet their Day in which they will be struck \[i.e., with punishment]—
46. يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْـًۭٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
The Day their plan will not avail them at all, nor will they be helped.
47. وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ عَذَابًۭا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
And indeed, for those who have wronged is a punishment before that, but most of them do not know.
48. وَٱصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا ۖ
So be patient for the decision of your Lord, for indeed, you are in Our sight.
وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ
And exalt \[Allah] with praise of your Lord when you arise.
49. وَمِنَ ٱلَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَإِدْبَـٰرَ ٱلنُّجُومِ
And in a part of the night exalt Him, and after the \[setting of] the stars.
