    051.001 By those that winnow with a winnowing
    051.002 And those that bear the burden (of the rain)
    051.003 And those that glide with ease (upon the sea)
    051.004 And those who distribute (blessings) by command,
    051.005 Lo! that wherewith ye are threatened is indeed true,
    051.006 And lo! the judgment will indeed befall.
    051.007 By the heaven full of paths,
    051.008 Lo! ye, forsooth, are of various opinion (concerning the truth).

    051.015 Lo! those who keep from evil will dwell amid gardens and watersprings,
    051.016 Taking that which their Lord giveth them; for lo! aforetime they were doers of good;
    051.017 They used to sleep but little of the night,
    051.018 And ere the dawning of each day would seek forgiveness,
    051.019 And in their wealth the beggar and the outcast had due share.
    051.020 And in the earth are portents for those whose faith is sure.
    051.021 And (also) in yourselves. Can ye then not see ?
    051.022 And in the heaven is your providence and that which ye are promised;
    051.023 And by the Lord of the heavens and the earth, it is the truth, even as (it is true) that ye speak.

    051.026 Then he went apart unto his housefolk so that they brought a fatted calf;
    051.027 And he set it before them, saying: Will ye not eat ?

    051.034 Marked by thy Lord for (the destruction of) the wanton.
