83:3
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
But if they measure unto them or weight for them, they cause them loss.

أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
Do such (men) not consider that they will be raised again

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلنَّاسُ لِرَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
The day when (all) mankind stand before the Lord of the Worlds?

83:11
ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ
Those who deny the Day of Judgment
83:12
وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,
83:13
إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ءَايَٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old.
83:14
كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ ۜ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ
Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts.
83:15
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ
Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from (the mercy of) their Lord.
83:16
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,
83:17
ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
And it will be said (unto them): This is that which ye used to deny.

83:19
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ

A written record,
83:21
يَشْهَدُهُ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ

عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ

A spring whence those brought near (to Allah) drink.

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا۟ كَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَضْحَكُونَ
Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed,
83:30
وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ

And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting;

And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray.
83:33
وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَٰفِظِينَ
Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.
