"That was because ye were wont to rejoice on the earth in things
other than the Truth, and that ye were wont to be insolent."
P: (And it is said unto them): This is because ye exulted in the earth
without right, and because ye were petulant.
S: That is because you exulted in the land unjustly and because you
behaved insolently.

Y: "Enter ye the gates of Hell, to dwell therein: and evil is (this)
abode of the arrogant!"
P: Enter ye the gates of hell, to dwell therein. Evil is the habitation
of the scornful.
S: Enter the gates of hell to abide therein, evil then is the abode of
the proud.

Y: So persevere in patience; for the Promise of Allah is true: and
whether We show thee (in this life) some part of what We promise them,-
or We take thy soul (to Our Mercy) (before that),-(in any case) it is
to Us that they shall (all) return.

bring a sign except with Allah's permission, but when the command of
Allah came, judgment was given with truth, and those who treated (it)
as a lie were lost.
