(37:1) By those [angels] lined up in rows (37:2) And those who drive [the clouds] (37:3) And those who recite the message, (37:4) Indeed, your God is One, (37:5) Lord of the heavens and the earth and that between them and Lord of the sunrises. (37:6) Indeed, We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment of stars (37:7) And as protection against every rebellious devil (37:8) [So] they may not listen to the exalted assembly [of angels] and are pelted from every side, (37:9) Repelled; and for them is a constant punishment, (37:10) Except one who snatches [some words] by theft, but they are pursued by a burning flame, piercing [in brightness]. (37:11) Then inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Are they a stronger [or more difficult] creation or those [others] We have created?" Indeed, We created men from sticky clay. (37:12) But you wonder, while they mock, (37:13) And when they are reminded, they remember not. (37:14) And when they see a sign, they ridicule (37:15) And say, "This is not but obvious magic. (37:16) When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected? (37:17) And our forefathers [as well]?" (37:18) Say, "Yes, and you will be [rendered] contemptible." (37:19) It will be only one shout, and at once they will be observing. (37:20) They will say, "O woe to us! This is the Day of Recompense." (37:21) [They will be told], "This is the Day of Judgement which you used to deny."
