إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا

When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake

وَأَخْرَجَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا

And the earth discharges its burdens

وَقَالَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَا لَهَا

And man says, "What is [wrong] with it?" -

يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا

That Day, it will report its news

بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَىٰ لَهَا

Because your Lord has inspired [i.e., commanded] it.

يَوْمَئِذٍ يَصْدُرُ ٱلنَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا۟ أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ

That Day, the people will depart separated [into categories] to be shown [the result of] their deeds.

فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُۥ

So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it,

وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُۥ

And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.
