2. Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.

3. He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.

5. Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!

6. (It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,

7. Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).

8. Lo! it is closed in on themm

9. In outstretched columns.
