أَو زِد عَلَيهِ وَرَتِّلِ القُرآنَ تَرتيلًا

Or add to it, and recite the Qur'an with measured recitation.

إِنّا سَنُلقي عَلَيكَ قَولًا ثَقيلًا

Indeed, We will cast upon you a heavy word.

إِنَّ ناشِئَةَ اللَّيلِ هِيَ أَشَدُّ وَطئًا وَأَقوَمُ قيلًا

Indeed, the hours of the night are more effective for concurrence [of heart and tongue] and more suitable for words.

إِنَّ لَكَ فِي النَّهارِ سَبحًا طَويلًا

Indeed, for you by day is prolonged occupation.

وَاذكُرِ اسمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّل إِلَيهِ تَبتيلًا

And remember the name of your Lord and devote yourself to Him with [complete] devotion.

وَاصبِر عَلىٰ ما يَقولونَ وَاهجُرهُم هَجرًا جَميلًا

And be patient over what they say and avoid them with gracious avoidance.

وَذَرني وَالمُكَذِّبينَ أُولِي النَّعمَةِ وَمَهِّلهُم قَليلًا

And leave Me with [the matter of] the deniers, those of ease [in life], and allow them respite a little.

إِنَّ لَدَينا أَنكالًا وَجَحيمًا

Indeed, with Us [for them] are shackles and burning fire

وَطَعامًا ذا غُصَّةٍ وَعَذابًا أَليمًا

And food that chokes and a painful punishment -

يَومَ تَرجُفُ الأَرضُ وَالجِبالُ وَكانَتِ الجِبالُ كَثيبًا مَهيلًا

On the Day the earth and the mountains will convulse and the mountains will become a heap of sand pouring down.
