38.41 . And make mention ( O Muhammad ) of Our bondman Job , when he cried unto his Lord ( saying ) : Lo! the devil doth afflict me with distress and torment .
38.42 . ( And it was said unto him ) : Strike the ground with thy foot . This ( spring ) is a cool bath and a refreshing drink .
38.43 . And We bestowed on him ( again ) his household and therewith the like thereof , a mercy from Us , and a memorial for men of understanding .
38.44 . And ( it was said unto him ) : Take in thine hand a branch and smite therewith , and break not twine oath . Lo! We found him steadfast , how excellent a slave! Lo! he was ever turning in repentance ( to his Lord ) .
38.45 . And me mention of our bondmen , Abraham , Isaac and Jacob , men of parts and vision .
38.46 . Lo! We purified them with a pure thought , remembrance of the Home ( of the Hereafter ) .
38.47 . Lo! in Our sight they are verily of the elect , the excellent .
38.48 . And make mention of Ishmael and Elisha and Dhul Kifl . All are of the chosen .
38.49 . This is a reminder . And lo! for those who ward off ( evil ) is a happy journey ' s end ,
38.50 . Gardens of Eden , whereof the gates are opened for them .
38.51 . Wherein , reclining , they call for plenteous fruit and cool drink ( that is ) therein .
38.52 . And with them are those of modest gaze , companions .
38.53 . This it is that ye are promised for the Day of Reckoning .
38.54 . Lo! this in truth is Our provision , which will never waste away .
38.55 . This ( is for the righteous ) . And lo! for the transgressors there will be an evil journey ' s end ,
38.56 . Hell , where they will burn , an evil resting place .
38.57 . Here is a boiling and an ice cold draught , so let them taste it ,
38.58 . And other ( torment ) of the kind in pairs ( the two extremes ) !
38.59 . Here is an army rushing blindly with you . ( Those who are already in the fire say ) : No word of welcome for them . Lo! they will roast at the Fire .
38.60 . They say : Nay , but you ( misleaders ) , for you there is no word of welcome . Ye prepared this for us ( by your misleading ) . Now hapless is the plight .
