Edward Henry Palmer
88:1
Has there come to thee the story of the overwhelming
88:2
Faces on that day shall be humble
88:3
labouring, toiling,
88:4
shall broil upon a burning fire
88:5
shall be given to drink from a boiling spring
88:6
no food shall they have save from the foul thorn
88:7
which shall not fatten nor avail against hunger
88:8
Faces on that day shall be comfortable
88:9
content with their past endeavours,
88:10
in a lofty garde
88:11
wherein they shall hear no foolish word
88:12
wherein is a flowing fountain
88:13
wherein are couches raised on high
88:14
and goblets set down
88:15
and cushions arranged
88:16
and carpets spread
88:17
Do they not look then at the camel how she is created
88:18
And at the heaven how it is reared
88:19
And at the mountains how they are set up
88:20
And at the earth how it is spread out
88:21
But remind: thou art only one to remind
88:22
thou art not in authority over them
88:23
except such as turns his back and misbelieves
88:24
for him will God torment with the greatest torment
88:25
Verily, unto us is their return
88:26
and, verily, for us is their account
