يَوْمَ (The) Day تَرَوْنَهَا you will see it تَذْهَلُ will forget كُلُّ every مُرْضِعَةٍ nursing mother عَمَّآ that which أَرْضَعَتْ she was nursing وَتَضَعُ and will deliver كُلُّ every ذَاتِ pregnant woman حَمْلٍ pregnant woman حَمْلَهَا her load وَتَرَى and you will see ٱلنَّاسَ [the] mankind سُكَـٰرَىٰ intoxicated وَمَا while not هُم they بِسُكَـٰرَىٰ (are) intoxicated وَلَـٰكِنَّ but عَذَابَ (the) punishment ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah شَدِيدٌۭ (will be) severe ٢

On the Day you see it every nursing mother will be distracted from that [child] she was nursing, and every pregnant woman will abort her pregnancy, and you will see the people [appearing] intoxicated while they are not intoxicated; but the punishment of Allāh is severe.

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O mankind ٱلنَّاسُ O mankind إِن If كُنتُمْ you are فِى in رَيْبٍۢ doubt مِّنَ about ٱلْبَعْثِ the Resurrection فَإِنَّا then indeed, We خَلَقْنَـٰكُم We created you مِّن from تُرَابٍۢ dust ثُمَّ then مِن from نُّطْفَةٍۢ a semen-drop ثُمَّ then مِنْ from عَلَقَةٍۢ a clinging substance ثُمَّ then مِن from مُّضْغَةٍۢ an embryonic lump مُّخَلَّقَةٍۢ formed وَغَيْرِ and unformed مُخَلَّقَةٍۢ and unformed لِّنُبَيِّنَ that We may make clear لَكُمْ ۚ to you وَنُقِرُّ And We cause to remain فِى in ٱلْأَرْحَامِ the wombs مَا what نَشَآءُ We will إِلَىٰٓ for أَجَلٍۢ a term مُّسَمًّۭى appointed ثُمَّ then نُخْرِجُكُمْ We bring you out طِفْلًۭا (as) a child ثُمَّ [then] لِتَبْلُغُوٓا۟ that you may reach أَشُدَّكُمْ ۖ [your] maturity وَمِنكُم And among you مَّن (is he) who يُتَوَفَّىٰ dies وَمِنكُم and among you مَّن (is he) who يُرَدُّ is returned إِلَىٰٓ to أَرْذَلِ the most abject ٱلْعُمُرِ age لِكَيْلَا so that not يَعْلَمَ he knows مِنۢ after بَعْدِ after عِلْمٍۢ having known شَيْـًۭٔا ۚ anything وَتَرَى And you see ٱلْأَرْضَ the earth هَامِدَةًۭ barren فَإِذَآ then when أَنزَلْنَا We send down عَلَيْهَا on it ٱلْمَآءَ water ٱهْتَزَّتْ it gets stirred وَرَبَتْ and it swells وَأَنۢبَتَتْ and grows مِن of كُلِّ every زَوْجٍۭ kind بَهِيجٍۢ beautiful ٥

O people, if you should be in doubt about the Resurrection, then [consider that] indeed, We created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from a clinging clot, and then from a lump of flesh, formed and unformed - that We may show you. And We settle in the wombs whom We will for a specified term, then We bring you out as a child, and then [We develop you] that you may reach your [time of] maturity. And among you is he who is taken in [early] death, and among you is he who is returned to the most decrepit [old] age so that he knows, after [once having] knowledge, nothing. And you see the earth barren, but when We send down upon it rain, it quivers and swells and grows [something] of every beautiful kind.
