68 So by thy Lord! We shall certainly gather them together and the devils, then shall We bring them around hell on their knees.

69 Then We shall draw forth from every sect those most rebellious against the Beneficent.

70 Again, We certainly know best those who deserve most to be burned therein.

71 And there is not one of you but shall come to it. This is an unavoidable decree of thy Lord.

72 And We shall deliver those who guard against evil, and leave the wrongdoers therein on their knees.

73 And when Our clear messages are recited to them, those who disbelieve say to those who believe: Which of the two parties is better in position and better in assembly?

74 And how many a generation have We destroyed before them, who had better possessions and appearance!

75 Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will prolong his length of days; until they see what they were threatened with, either the punishment or the Hour. Then they will know who is worse in position and weaker in forces.

76 And Allāh increases in guidance those who go aright. And deeds that endure, the good deeds, are, with thy Lord, better in recompense and yield better return.

77 Hast thou seen him who disbelieves in Our messages and says: I shall certainly be given wealth and children?

78 Has he gained knowledge of the unseen, or made a covenant with the Beneficent?

79 By no means! We write down what he says, and We shall lengthen to him the length of the chastisement,

80 And We shall inherit from him what he says, and he will come to Us alone.

81 And they have taken gods besides Allāh, that they should be to them a source of strength —
