44. Duhan · verses 13–16

أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ وَقَدۡ جَآءَهُمۡ رَسُولٞ مُّبِينٞ

Anna lahumu alththikra waqad jaahum rasoolun mubeenun

How shall the message be (effectual) for them, seeing that an Messenger explaining things clearly has (already) come to them,-

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُواْ مُعَلَّمٞ مَّجۡنُونٌ

Thumma tawallaw AAanhu waqaloo muAAallamun majnoonun

Yet they turn away from him and say: "Tutored (by others), a man possessed!"

إِنَّا كَاشِفُواْ ٱلۡعَذَابِ قَلِيلًاۚ إِنَّكُمۡ عَآئِدُونَ

Inna kashifoo alAAathabi qaleelan innakum AAaidoona

We shall indeed remove the Penalty for a while, (but) truly ye will revert (to your ways).

يَوۡمَ نَبۡطِشُ ٱلۡبَطۡشَةَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰٓ إِنَّا مُنتَقِمُونَ

Yawma nabtishu albatshata alkubra inna muntaqimoona

One day We shall seize you with a mighty onslaught: We will indeed (then) exact Retribution!
