كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا كُلِّهَا فَأَخَذْنَاهُمْ أَخْذَ عَزِيزٍ مُقْتَدِرٍ ٤٢
The (people) rejected all Our Signs; but We seized them with such Penalty (as comes) from One Exalted in Power, able to carry out His Will.
54:43
أَكُفَّارُكُمْ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أُولَٰئِكُمْ أَمْ لَكُمْ بَرَاءَةٌ فِي الزُّبُرِ ٤٣
Are your Unbelievers, (O Quraish), better than they? Or have ye an immunity in the Sacred Books?
54:44
أَمْ يَقُولُونَ نَحْنُ جَمِيعٌ مُنْتَصِرٌ ٤٤
Or do they say: "We acting together can defend ourselves"?
54:45
سَيُهْزَمُ الْجَمْعُ وَيُوَلُّونَ الدُّبُرَ ٤٥
Soon will their multitude be put to flight, and they will show their backs.
54:46
بَلِ السَّاعَةُ مَوْعِدُهُمْ وَالسَّاعَةُ أَدْهَىٰ وَأَمَرُّ ٤٦
Nay, the Hour (of Judgment) is the time promised them (for their full recompense): And that Hour will be most grievous and most bitter.
