Then We caused to swallow up,
those who (could) defend themselves.
He would have caused it to swallow us
We (could) cause to swallow them
Then We caused the earth to swallow up him and his house; and he had not (the least little) party to help him against Allah, nor could he defend himself.
And those who had envied his position the day before began to say on the morrow: "Ah! it is indeed Allah Who enlarges the provision or restricts it, to any of His servants He pleases! had it not been that Allah was gracious to us, He could have caused the earth to swallow us up! Ah! those who reject Allah will assuredly never prosper."
See they not what is before them and behind them, of the sky and the earth? If We wished, We could cause the earth to swallow them up, or cause a piece of the sky to fall upon them. Verily in this is a Sign for every devotee that turns to Allah (in repentance).
And the moon is buried in darkness.
Each one of them We seized for his crime: of them, against some We sent a violent tornado (with showers of stones); some were caught by a (mighty) Blast; some We caused the earth to swallow up; and some We drowned (in the waters): It was not Allah Who injured (or oppressed) them:" They injured (and oppressed) their own souls.
Do then those who devise evil (plots) feel secure that Allah will not cause the earth to swallow them up, or that the Wrath will not seize them from directions they little perceive?-
Do ye then feel secure that He will not cause you to be swallowed up beneath the earth when ye are on land, or that He will not send against you a violent tornado (with showers of stones) so that ye shall find no one to carry out your affairs for you?
Do ye feel secure that He Who is in heaven will not cause you to be swallowed up by the earth when it shakes (as in an earthquake)?
我使他和他的房屋沦陷在地面下,他没有党羽协助他抵抗真主,他也不能自卫。
昨天羡慕戈伦的境遇的人说:“你不见吗?真主要使哪个仆人的给养宽裕,就使他宽裕;(要使哪个仆人的给养窘迫),就使他窘迫。假若没有真主对我们的恩典,他必使我们沦陷在地面下。你不知道吗?孤恩的人,是不会成功的。”
难道他们没有观察在他们上面和下面的天地吗?如果我意欲,我必使他们沦陷在地面下,或使天一块一块地落在他们的头上。对于每一个归依的仆人,此中确有一种迹象。
月亮昏暗,
每一个人,我都因他的罪过而加以惩罚,他们中有我曾使飞沙走石的暴风去伤害的,有为恐怖所袭击的,有我使他沦陷在地面下的,有被我溺杀的,真主不致亏枉他们,但他们亏枉了自己。
使用诡计以作恶者,难道不怕真主使他们随地面而陷落,或刑罚从他们料想不到的地方来临他们吗?
难道你们不怕主使你们沦陷地下,或使飞沙走石的狂风扫荡你们,而你们不能为自己找到任何监护者吗?
难道你们不怕在天上的主使大地在震荡的时候吞咽你们吗?
