Faqaloo abasharan minna wahidan nattabiAAuhu inna ithan lafee dalalin wasuAAurin
And said, "Is (it) a human being among us one, (that) we should follow Indeed, we then (will be) surely in error and madness.
and they said: Are we to follow one single mortal, one from among ourselves? In that case, behold, we would certainly sink into error and folly!
For they said: "What! a man! a Solitary one from among ourselves! shall we follow such a one? Truly should we then be straying in mind, and mad!
For they said; Is it a mortal man, alone among us, that we are to follow? Then indeed we should fall into error and madness.
Tearing men away as if they were the trunks of palm-trees torn up.
And said, "Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness.
أَأُلْقِيَ الذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِن بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٌ
Aolqiya alththikru AAalayhi min baynina bal huwa kaththabun ashirun
Has been sent the Reminder to him from among us? Nay, he (is) a liar insolent."
Why - on him alone from among all of us should a [divine] reminder have been bestowed? Nay, but he is a boastful liar!"
"Is it that the Message is sent to him, of all people amongst us? Nay, he is a liar, an insolent one!"
Hath the remembrance been given unto him alone among us? Nay, but he is a rash liar.
How terrible was then My chastisement and My warning!
Has the message been sent down upon him from among us? Rather, he is an insolent liar."

SayaAAlamoona ghadan mani alkaththabu al-ashiru
They will know tomorrow who (is) the liar, the insolent one.
[And God said:] On the morrow they will come to know who the boastful liar is!
Ah! they will know on the morrow, which is the liar, the insolent one!
(Unto their warner it was said): To-morrow they will know who is the rash liar.
And certainly We have made the Qur'an easy to remember, but is there any one who will mind?
They will know tomorrow who is the insolent liar.
