فَما لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلا ناصِرٍ

Then man will have no power or any helper.

وَالسَّماءِ ذاتِ الرَّجعِ

By the sky which returns [rain]

وَالأَرضِ ذاتِ الصَّدعِ

And [by] the earth which cracks open,

إِنَّهُ لَقَولٌ فَصلٌ

Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

وَما هُوَ بِالهَزلِ

And it is not amusement.

وَأَكيدُ كَيدًا

But I am planning a plan.

فَمَهِّلِ الكافِرينَ أَمهِلهُم رُوَيدًا

So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.
