68:41

أَمْ لَهُمْ شُرَكَآءُ فَلْيَأْتُواْ بِشُرَكَآئِهِمْ إِن كَانُواْ صَٰدِقِينَ

əм лəhум шурōкəə`у фəльйə`туу бишурōкəə`иhим иŋŋ-кəəнуу сōōдиќиин

Do they have any ‘partners’ [that they claim for Allah]? Then let them produce their partners, if they are truthful.

68:42

يَوْمَ يُكْشَفُ عَن سَاقٍ وَيُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى ٱلسُّجُودِ فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ

йəумə йукшəфу 'əŋŋ-сəəќиу-вəйуд'əунə илəəс-суджууди фəлəə йəстəтыы'уун

The day when the catastrophe occurs and they are summoned to prostrate themselves, they will not be able [to do it].

68:43

خَٰشِعَةً أَبْصَٰرُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ  ۖ وَقَدْ كَانُواْ يُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى ٱلسُّجُودِ وَهُمْ سَٰلِمُونَ

хōōши'əтəн əбсōōруhум тəрhəќуhум з̃ильлəh, вəќōд кəəнуу йуд'əунə илəəс-суджууди вəhум сəəлимуун

With a humbled look [in their eyes], they will be overcast by abasement. Certainly, they were summoned to prostrate themselves while they were yet sound.

68:44

فَذَرْنِى وَمَن يُكَذِّبُ بِهَٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ  ۖ سَنَسْتَدْرِجُهُم مِّنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

фəз̃əрнии вəмəй-йукəз̃з̃ибу биhəəз̃əəль-həдииc̃, сəнəстəдриджуhум-мин həйc̃у лəə йə'лəмуун

So leave Me with those who deny this discourse. We will draw them imperceptibly [into ruin], whence they do not know.

68:45

وَأُمْلِى لَهُمْ  ۚ إِنَّ كَيْدِى مَتِينٌ

вə`умлии лəhум, иннə кəйдии мəтиин

I will grant them respite, for My devising is indeed sure.

68:46

أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ أَجْرًا فَهُم مِّن مَّغْرَمٍ مُّثْقَلُونَ

əм тəс`əлюhум əджрōн фəhум-мимм-мəґрōмимм-муc̃ќōлююн

Do you ask them for a reward, so that they are weighed down with debt?

68:47

أَمْ عِندَهُمُ ٱلْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ

əм 'иŋŋдəhумуль-ґōйбу фəhум йəктубуун

Do they possess [access to] the Unseen, so that they write it down?

68:48

فَٱصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُن كَصَاحِبِ ٱلْحُوتِ إِذْ نَادَىٰ وَهُوَ مَكْظُومٌ

фəəсбир лиhукми рōббикə вəлəə тəкуŋŋ-кəсōōhибиль-hуути из̃ нəəдəə вəhувə мəкз̃уум

So submit patiently to the judgement of your Lord, and do not be like the Man of the Fish who called out as he choked with grief.

68:49

لَّوْلَآ أَن تَدَٰرَكَهُۥ نِعْمَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ لَنُبِذَ بِٱلْعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ مَذْمُومٌ

лəулəə əŋŋ-тəдəəрōкəhу ни'мəтумм-мир-рōббиhи лəнубиз̃ə би-ль-'əрōō`и вəhувə мəз̃муум

Had it not been for a blessing that came to his rescue from his Lord, he would surely have been cast on the bare shore, being blameworthy.

68:50

فَٱجْتَبَٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَجَعَلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ

фəəджтəбəəhу рōббуhу фəджə'əлəhу минəс-сōōлиhиин

So his Lord chose him and made him one of the righteous.
