وَمَا هُوَ بِقَولِ شَاعِر ٍ قَلِيلا ً مَا تُؤمِنُونَ

It is not the word of a poet, little is that you believe!

Wa Ma Huwa Biqawli Sha`irin Qalilaan Ma Tu'uminūna

وَلاَ بِقَولِ كَاهِن ٍ قَلِيلا ً مَا تَذَكَّرُونَ

Nor is it the word of a soothsayer (or a foreteller), little is that you remember!

Wa La Biqawli Kahinin Qalilaan Ma Tadhakkarūna

تَنزِيل ٌ مِنرَبِّ العَالَمِينَ

This is the Revelation sent down from the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists).

Tanzilun Min Rabbi Al-`Ālamina

وَلَو تَقَوَّلَ عَلَينَا بَعضَ الأَقَاوِيلِ

And if he (Muhammad SAW) had forged a false saying concerning Us (Allah),

Wa Law Taqawwala `Alayna Ba`đa Al-'Aqawili

لَأَخَذنَا مِنهُ بِاليَمِينِ

We surely should have seized him by his right hand (or with power and might),

La'akhadhna Minhu Bil-Yamini

ثُمَّ لَقَطَعنَا مِنهُ الوَتِينَ

And then certainly should have cut off his life artery (Aorta),

Thumma Laqaţa`na Minhu Al-Watina

فَمَا مِنْكُممِن أَحَدٍ عَنهُ حَاجِزِينَ

And none of you could withhold Us from (punishing) him.

Fama Minkum Min 'Aĥadin `Anhu Ĥajizina

وَإِنَّه ُُ لَتَذكِرَة ٌ لِلمُتَّقِينَ

And verily, this Qur'an is a Reminder for the Muttaqun (pious - see V.2:2).

Wa 'Innahu Latadhkiratun Lilmuttaqina

وَإِنَّا لَنَعلَمُ أَنَّ مِنْكُممُكَذِّبِينَ

And verily, We know that there are some among you that belie (this Qur'an). [Tafsir At-Tabari, Vol. 29, Page 68]

Wa 'Inna Lana`lamu 'Anna Minkum Mukadhdhibina

وَإِنَّه ُُ لَحَسرَةٌ عَلَى الكَافِرِينَ

And indeed it (this Qur'an) will be an anguish for the disbelievers (on the Day of Resurrection).

Wa 'Innahu Laĥasratun `Alá Al-Kafirina

وَإِنَّه ُُ لَحَقُّ اليَقِينِ

And Verily, it (this Qur'an) is an absolute truth with certainty.

Wa 'Innahu Laĥaqqu Al-Yaqini

فَسَبِّح بِاسمِ رَبِّكَ العَظِيمِ

So glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most Great.
