وَٱتْلُ And recite عَلَيْهِمْ to them نَبَأَ (the) story ٱلَّذِىٓ (of the) one whom ءَاتَيْنَـٰهُ We gave [him] ءَايَـٰتِنَا Our Verses فَٱنسَلَخَ but he detached مِنْهَا [from] them فَأَتْبَعَهُ so followed him ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ the Shaitaan فَكَانَ and he became مِنَ of ٱلْغَاوِينَ those gone astray ١٧٥
And recite to them, [O Muḥammad], the news of him to whom We gave [knowledge of] Our signs, but he detached himself from them; so Satan pursued him, and he became of the deviators.

وَلَوْ And if شِئْنَا We willed لَرَفَعْنَـٰهُ surely, We (could) have raised him بِهَا with these وَلَـٰكِنَّهُۥٓ [and] but he أَخْلَدَ adhered إِلَى to ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth وَٱتَّبَعَ and followed هَوَىٰهُ ۚ his (vain) desires فَمَثَلُهُۥ So his example كَمَثَلِ (is) like (the) example ٱلْكَلْبِ (of) the dog إِن if تَحْمِلْ you attack عَلَيْهِ [on] him يَلْهَثْ he lolls out his tongue أَوْ or تَتْرُكْهُ if you leave him يَلْهَث ۚ he lolls out his tongue ذَّٰلِكَ That مَثَلُ (is the) example ٱلْقَوْمِ (of) the people ٱلَّذِينَ who كَذَّبُوا۟ denied بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا ۚ [in] Our Signs فَٱقْصُصِ So relate ٱلْقَصَصَ the story لَعَلَّهُمْ so that they may يَتَفَكَّرُونَ reflect ١٧٦
And if We had willed, We could have elevated him thereby, but he adhered [instead] to the earth and followed his own desire. So his example is like that of the dog: if you chase him, he pants, or if you leave him, he [still] pants. That is the example of the people who denied Our signs. So relate the stories that perhaps they will give thought.

سَآءَ Evil مَثَلًا (as) an example ٱلْقَوْمُ (are) the people ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَذَّبُوا۟ denied بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا Our Signs وَأَنفُسَهُمْ and themselves كَانُوا۟ they used to يَظْلِمُونَ wrong ١٧٧
How evil an example [is that of] the people who denied Our signs and used to wrong themselves.

مَن Whoever يَهْدِ (is) guided ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah فَهُوَ then he ٱلْمُهْتَدِى ۖ (is) the guided one وَمَن while whoever يُضْلِلْ He lets go astray فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ then those هُمُ [they] ٱلْخَـٰسِرُونَ (are) the losers ١٧٨
Whoever Allāh guides - he is the [rightly] guided; and whoever He sends astray - it is those who are the losers.

وَلَقَدْ And certainly ذَرَأْنَا We have created لِجَهَنَّمَ for Hell كَثِيرًۭا many مِّنَ of ٱلْجِنِّ the jinn وَٱلْإِنسِ ۖ and men لَهُمْ For them قُلُوبٌۭ (are) hearts لَّا (but) not يَفْقَهُونَ they understand بِهَا with them وَلَهُمْ and for them أَعْيُنٌۭ (are) eyes لَّا (but) not يُبْصِرُونَ they see بِهَا with them وَلَهُمْ and for them ءَاذَانٌۭ (are) ears لَّا (but) not يَسْمَعُونَ they hear بِهَآ ۚ with them أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those كَٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ (are) like cattle بَلْ nay هُمْ they أَضَلُّ ۚ (are) more astray أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those هُمُ they ٱلْغَـٰفِلُونَ (are) the heedless ١٧٩
And We have certainly created for Hell many of the jinn and mankind. They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear. Those are like livestock; rather, they are more astray. It is they who are the heedless.
