He merges the night into the day (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the night are added to the hours of the day), and He merges the day into the night (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the day are added to the hours of the night). And He has subjected the sun and the moon, each runs its course for a term appointed. Such is Allah your Lord; His is the kingdom. And those, whom you invoke or call upon instead of Him, own not even a Qitmir (the thin membrane over the datestone).
かれは夜を昼に没入させ，また昼を夜に没入させ，（昼夜の交替），太陽と月を従えられ，それぞれ周期をもって定められた期間（復活の日）まで（その軌道を）運行さしめる。このようなことが（出来るのは）あなたがたの主，アッラーであられ，大権はかれに属する。だがかれらが，かれをおいて祈るものたちは，キトミール（さえ）どうすることも出来ない。
