كَلَّا سَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَ

Nay, in time you will come to understand!

ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَ

And once again: Nay, in time you will come to understand!

5

كَلَّا لَوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عِلۡمَ ٱلۡیَقِینِ

Nay, if you could but understand [it] with an understanding [born] of certainty,

6

لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلۡجَحِیمَ

you would indeed, most surely, behold the blazing fire [of hell]!

ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَیۡنَ ٱلۡیَقِینِ

ثُمَّ لَتُسۡـَٔلُنَّ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِیمِ

and on that Day you will most surely be called to account for [what you did with] the boon of life!
