Hugging a Burning Tree

Then a calamity from your Lord fell upon it , but they remained fast asleep .

So by the morning it seemed as though picked clean .

So an envoy from your Lord completed his round upon the garden , whilst they were sleeping .

So in the morning it became as if harvested .

Then a visitation from thy Lord visited it , while they were sleeping ,

and in the morning it was as if it were a garden plucked .

Wherefore an encircling visitation visited it even as they slept on .

Then in the morning it became as though it had been reaped .

Then there passed by on the ( garden ) something ( fire ) from your Lord at night and burnt it while they were asleep .

So the ( garden ) became black by the morning , like a pitch dark night ( in complete ruins ) .

But a calamity from your Lord went around it while they slept .

And in the morning it was as if picked .

Thereupon a calamity from your Lord passed over it while they were asleep ,

and so by morning the orchard lay as though it had been fully harvested .

Then a visitation from thy Lord came upon it while they slept

And in the morning it was as if plucked .

Then , a visitation from your Lord visited it while they were asleep .

So , by dawn it was like a harvested field .

Then , a visitation from your Lord came down upon it while they slept ,

and in the morning it was if the garden had been reaped .

So there came upon the garden an affliction from your Lord while they were asleep .

And it became as though reaped .

A visitor from your Lord circled around the garden during the night while they were asleep

and the garden was turned into a barren desert .

Then there encompassed it a visitation from your Lord while they were sleeping .

So it became as black , barren land .

A calamity from your Lord befell the orchard as they slept .

And by morning it lay as if it had already been harvested , a barren land .

Then there came on the ( garden ) a visitation from thy Lord , ( which swept away ) all around , while they were asleep .

So the ( garden ) became , by the morning , like a dark and desolate spot , ( whose fruit had been gathered ) .

looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

When they saw ( and did not recognise it ) they said Surely we have lost the way .

Then when they saw it , they said , We have indeed strayed .

But when they saw it , they said , ' Surely we are gone astray

Then when they beheld it , they said verily we have strayed .

But when they saw the ( garden ) , they said Verily , we have gone astray ,

But when they saw it , they said , We were wrong .

But as soon as they beheld the orchard , ( they cried out ) We have certainly lost the way

But when they saw it , they said Lo ! we are in error !

But when they saw it , they said , We have indeed lost our way !

But when they saw it they said ' We have surely gone astray .

But when they saw it , they said , Indeed , we are lost

When they saw the garden , they said , Surely we have lost our way .
