68:1  Nun (the letter N), by the pen and what they write

68:2  you are not a madman by your Master's grace

68:3  And indeed an unending reward is for you

68:4  And you are indeed of a great character (and morality)

68:5  So you are going to see and they will see

68:6  which of you is the crazy one

68:7  Indeed your Master knows best who is lost from His way, and He knows best who the guided ones are

68:8  So do not obey the deniers

68:9  They wish that you be flexible, then they would be flexible

68:10  So do not obey any insignificant oath taker

68:11  slandering, going around (spreading) malicious lies

68:12  preventing the good, exceeding the limits, sinful

68:13  ill-mannered (and despicable), and after all this mean (and notorious)

68:14  even if he is wealthy and has many children

68:15  When Our verses are read to him, he says: stories of the earlier ones

68:16  We are going to brand him on the nose

68:17  Indeed We test them as We tested the owners of the garden when they swore that they shall pick it in the morning

68:18  with no exceptions

68:19  Then a disaster, from your Master, came to it while they were sleep

68:20  so it became as like a totally picked field

68:21  Then they called one another in the mornin

68:22  (saying): go to your crop early if you are picker

68:23  so they went on, and they were talking softly (saying)

68:24  no poor shall enter it over you today

68:25  And they went out early determined and capable

68:26  Then when they saw it they said: we are lost

68:27  no, but we are deprived

68:28  The fairest of them said: did I not tell you, why do you not glorify (God)

68:29  They said: our Master is flawless, indeed we were wrongdoers

68:30  So they turned on each other blaming one another

68:31  They said: woe to us, indeed we were rebellious

68:32  Perhaps our Master gives us better than that in exchange, indeed we are fond of our Master

68:33  That is how the punishment is, and the punishment of the hereafter is certainly greater, if they knew

68:34  Indeed there are gardens of delight for those who control themselves with their Master

68:35  Should We place the submitted ones the same as the guilty ones

68:36  What is with you, how do you judge (like this)

68:37  Do you have a book that you study from it

68:38  and indeed whatever you choose is in it for you?

68:39  Or do you have any vows (binding) on Us, reaching to the resurrection day, that whatever you judge is yours

68:40  Ask them which one of them guarantees this

68:41  Or do they have associates? Then let them bring their associates if they are truthful

68:42  On a day when leg is bared (and the deeds are exposed) and they are called to the prostration, but they cannot

68:43  Lowering their eyes, humiliation overcomes them, and they had been called to show humbleness while they were sound and healthy

68:44  So leave Me (alone) with anyone who denies this saying, We are going to gradually lure them to destruction from where they do not know

68:45  And I give them time, as My plan is solid

68:46  Or do you ask them for a wage, and they are weighed down by the debt

68:47  Or is the unseen with them, so they write it

68:48  So be patient for judgment of your Master and do not be like companion of the fish (Jonah) when he called out while he was irritated

68:49  If it was not for a favor from his Master that had reached him, he would have been thrown to the desert shore while he was condemned

68:50  But his Master chose him and made him of the righteous

68:51  And those who disbelieved almost make you slip with their eyes when they hear the reminder, and they say: he is certainly mad

68:52  And it is only a reminder for humankind
