So I do swear by the planets that move away.

I swear by the planet

So surely, I swear by the planets that recede;

I swear by the receding stars

So, I call the receding stars to witness

I swear by ‘al-Hunnas’ (the stars that are not observable during the day due to sunlight),

Then I swear by those that recede;

No! I swear by the planets with their retrograde motion,

Oh, I swear by the stars which recede (disappearing in the sun’s light)

So I swear by the stars that return

Nay, I call to witness those (planets) that recede while advancing in one direction

No! I swear by the slinkers

So, I swear by the disappearing (and reappearing stars/planets),

I (God) swear by the stars

So indeed I call to witness the planets that recede

But nay I swear by the retreating planets

Then, nay! I bring to witness (the heavenly bodies) that disappear and hide themselves (during the day)

So no! I swear an oath by the stars that recede,

So I swear by (the heavenly spheres) which recede (after appearing)

No, (I swear) by the planets

I need not swear by the stars that slink back

So by oath of those that revolve. (The planets.

So I do swear by the Khunnas [heavy and slow-moving night particles].

Verily I swear by the stars which are retrograde

But nay! I swear by (or call to witness) the Planets

Rather, I swear by the returnin

So verily, I swear by the planets that recede (i.e. disappear during the day and appear during the night)

So I swear by the planets [that recede]

It needs not that I swear by the stars of retrograde motion

Truly, I [the Lord] attest by the planets that recede,…

No indeed; I swear by the alternating star

Nay, I call to witness the stars

So I do swear by those that withdraw,

No! [The misgivings of the people that do not believe in these revelations are not correct, and] I swear by the star

So I do not swear/make oath by the planets

BUT NAY! I call to witness the revolving stars

Then no! swear by the constant sinkers

Oh, but I call to witness the planets

I do not need to swear by the orbitin

So, I swear by those (stars) that recede

Nay! I swear by the planets

No indeed! I swear by the planets

So, I swear by the shining stars,

I do swear by the receding stars

But I swear by the persisting stars,

I swear by the turning planets

I solemnly swear by the galaxies

I swear by the planets,

So, no, I swear by the retreaters (Planets and stars).

Oh, but I call to witness the revolving planets

But nay! I swear by the stars

Nay ! I call to witness those that recede while advancing

So truly I call to witness the receding stars that hide awa

So I swear by the planets

So, I swear by the receding stars.

I swear by the galaxies

So I swear by those receding

And I swear by the retreaters,

So I swear by the retreating stars

I swear by the receding stars

So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede
