55:1 The God of MERC
55:2 hath taught the Koran
55:3 Hath created man
55:4 Hath taught him articulate speech
55:5 The Sun and the Moon have each their times
55:6 And the plants and the trees bend in adoration
55:7 And the Heaven, He hath reared it on high, and hath appointed the balance
55:8 That in the balance ye should not transgress
55:9 Weigh therefore with fairness, and scant not the balance
55:10 And the Earth, He hath prepared it for the living tribes
55:11 Therein are fruits, and the palms with sheathed clusters
55:12 And the grain with its husk, and the fragrant plants
55:13 Which then of the bounties of your Lord will ye twain deny
55:14 He created man of clay like that of the potter
55:15 And He created the djinn of pure fire

55:31 We will find leisure to judge you, O ye men and djinn
55:32 Which then of the bounties of your Lord will ye twain deny? [RODWELL: Which, etc.]

55:44 To and fro shall they pass between it and the boiling water
55:45 Which then of the bounties of your Lord will ye twain deny? [RODWELL: Which, etc.]
55:46 But for those who dread the majesty of their Lord shall be two gardens
