37. Who doeth greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie concerning Allah or denieth
Our tokens. (For such) their appointed portion of the Book (of destiny) reacheth them
till, when Our messengers come to gather them, they say: Where (now) is that to which
ye cried beside Allah? They say: They have departed from us. And they testify against
themselves that they were disbelievers.
Yusuf Ali
37. Who is more unjust than one who invents a lie against Allah or rejects his signs?
For such their portion appointed must reach them from the Book (of decrees); until when
Our messengers (of death) arrive and take their souls they say: "where are the things
that ye used to invoke besides Allah?" They will reply "they have left us in the
lurch" and they will bear witness against themselves that they had rejected Allah.
M.Pickthall
38. He saith: Enter into the Fire among nations of the jinn and humankind who passed
away before you. Every time a nation entereth, it curseth its sister (nation) till,
when they have all been made to follow one another thither, the last of them saith
unto the first of them: Our Lord! These led us astray, so give them double torment
of the Fire. He saith: For each one there is double (torment), but ye know not.
Yusuf Ali
38. He will say: "enter ye in the company of the peoples who passed away before you
men and Jinns into the fire. Every time a new people enters it curses its sister-
people (that went before) until they follow each other all into the fire. Saith the
last about the first: "Our Lord! it is these that misled us: so give them a double
penalty in the fire." He will say: "doubled for all": but this Ye do not understand.
M.Pickthall
39. And the first of them saith unto the last of them : Ye were no whit better than
us, so taste the doom for what ye used to earn.
Yusuf Ali
39. Then the first will say to the last: "see then! no advantage have ye over us;
so taste ye of the penalty for all that ye did!"
