18:28

ﱁAnd be patientﱂyourselfﱃwithﱄthose whoﱅcallﱆtheir Lordﱇin the morningﱈand the eveningﱉdesiringﱊﱋHis FaceﱌAnd (let) notﱍpass beyondﱎyour eyesﱏover themﱐdesiringﱑadornmentﱒ(of) the lifeﱓﱔ(of) the worldﱕand (do) notﱖobeyﱗwhomﱘWe have made heedlessﱙhis heartﱚofﱛOur remembranceﱜand followsﱝhis desiresﱞand isﱟhis affairﱠ(in) excessﱡ(28)

And patiently stick with those who call upon their Lord morning and evening, seeking His pleasure.1 Do not let your eyes look beyond them, desiring the luxuries of this worldly life. And do not obey those whose hearts We have made heedless of Our remembrance, who follow ˹only˺ their desires and whose state is ˹total˺ loss.

18:29

ﱢAnd sayﱣThe truthﱤ(is) fromﱥﱦyour Lordﱧso whoeverﱨwills ﱩlet him believeﱪand whoeverﱫwills ﱬﱭlet him disbelieveﱮIndeed, Weﱯhave preparedﱰfor the wrongdoersﱱa Fireﱲwill surroundﱳthemﱴﱵits wallsﱶAnd ifﱷthey call for reliefﱸthey will be relievedﱹwith waterﱺlike molten brassﱻ(which) scaldsﱼﱽthe facesﱾWretchedﱿ(is) the drinkﲀand evilﲁ(is) the resting placeﲂ(29)

And say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “˹This is˺ the truth from your Lord. Whoever wills let them believe, and whoever wills let them disbelieve.” Surely We have prepared for the wrongdoers a Fire whose walls will ˹completely˺ surround them. When they cry for aid, they will be aided with water like molten metal, which will burn ˹their˺ faces. What a horrible drink! And what a terrible place to rest!

18:30

ﲃIndeedﲄthose whoﲅbelievedﲆand didﲇthe good deedsﲈindeed, Weﲉwill not let go wasteﲊwill not let go wasteﲋ(the) rewardﲌ(of one) whoﲍdoes goodﲎdeedsﲏ(30)

As for those who believe and do good, We certainly never deny the reward of those who are best in deeds.

18:31

ﲐThoseﲑfor themﲒ(are) Gardensﲓof Edenﲔflowsﲕfromﲖunderneath themﲗthe riversﲘThey will be adornedﲙthereinﲚ[of] (with)ﲛbraceletsﲜofﲝgoldﲞand will wearﲟgarmentsﲠgreenﲡofﲢfine silkﲣand heavy brocadeﲤrecliningﲥthereinﲦonﲧﲨadorned couchesﲩExcellentﲪ(is) the rewardﲫand goodﲬ(is) the resting placeﲭ(31)

It is they who will have the Gardens of Eternity, with rivers flowing under their feet. There they will be adorned with bracelets of gold, and wear green garments of fine silk and rich brocade, reclining there on ˹canopied˺ couches. What a marvellous reward! And what a fabulous place to rest!

18:32

ﲮ ﲯAnd set forthﲰto themﲱthe exampleﲲof two men:ﲳWe providedﲴfor one of themﲵtwo gardensﲶofﲷgrapesﲸand We bordered themﲹwith date-palmsﲺand We placedﲻbetween both of themﲼcropsﲽ(32)

Give them ˹O Prophet˺ an example of two men. To ˹the disbelieving˺ one We gave two gardens of grapevines, which We surrounded with palm trees and placed ˹various˺ crops in between.

18:33

ﲾEachﲿ(of) the two gardensﳀbrought forthﳁits produceﳂand notﳃdid wrongﳄof itﳅﳆanythingﳇAnd We caused to gush forthﳈwithin themﳉa riverﳊ(33)

Each garden yielded ˹all˺ its produce, never falling short. And We caused a river to flow between them.

18:34

ﳋAnd wasﳌfor himﳍfruitﳎso he saidﳏto his companionﳐwhile heﳑ(was) talking with himﳒI amﳓgreaterﳔthan youﳕ(in) wealthﳖand strongerﳗ(in) menﳘ(34)

And he had other resources1 ˹as well˺. So he boasted to a ˹poor˺ companion of his, while conversing with him, “I am greater than you in wealth and superior in manpower.”
