بَأْسُنَا

Do the people of the towns feel secure that Our might will not come upon them by day, while they play

Or are the people of the townships then secure from the coming of Our wrath upon them in the daytime while they play

Were the people of those cities secure that our wrath would not light on them in broad day, while they were disporting themselves

were the people of these cities secure that our violence would not come on them in the morning whilst they played

and he was secure people of the towns that he comes to them our might in the forenoon and they play

Generated from a table of word-by-word decisions, not written as prose. Arabic word order is preserved, so it reads stiffly and is not a substitute for a translation written by a person. Every verse is rendered, but the whole remains under review: words marked as judgement rest on weaker evidence than the rest and are flagged in place. No tafsir, hadith or existing translation was consulted.
