83:0 In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

83:1 Woe to the cheaters.

83:2 Who demand full measure when receiving from the people.

83:3 But when giving them the measures or weights, they cheat.

83:4 Do they not know that they will be resurrected?

83:5 On a tremendous day?

83:6 That is the day when all people will stand before the Lord of the universe.

Numerically Structured Books

83:7 Indeed, the book of the wicked is in Sijjeen.

83:8 Do you know what Sijjeen is?

83:9 A numerically structured book.

83:10 Woe on that day to the rejectors.

83:11 They do not believe in the Day of Judgment.

83:12 None disbelieves therein except the transgressor, the sinful.

83:13 When our revelations are recited to him, he says, "Tales from the past!"

83:14 Indeed, their hearts have become shielded by their sins.

83:15 Indeed, they will be isolated, on that day, from their Lord.

83:16 Then they will be thrown into Hell.

83:17 They will be told, "This is what you used to deny."

83:18 Indeed, the book of the righteous will be in `Elleyyeen.

83:19 Do you know what `Elleyyeen is?

83:20 A numerically structured book.

83:21 To be witnessed by those close to Me.

83:22 The righteous have deserved bliss.

83:23 On luxurious furnishings they watch.

83:24 You recognize in their faces the joy of bliss.

83:25 Their drinks will be spiced with nectar.

83:26 Its spice is like musk. This is what the competitors should compete for.

83:27 Mixed into it will be special flavors.

83:28 From a spring that is reserved for those close to Me.

83:29 The wicked used to laugh at those who believed.

83:30 When they passed by them, they used to poke fun.

83:31 When they got together with their people, they used to joke.

83:32 Whenever they saw them, they said, "These people are far astray!

83:33 "They have no such thing as (invisible) guards."

83:34 Today, those who believed are laughing at the disbelievers.

83:35 On luxurious furnishings they watch.

83:36 Most assuredly, the disbelievers are requited for what they did.
