وَلَقَدْ
جِئْتُمُونَا
فُرَادَى
كَمَا
خَلَقْنَاكُمْ
أَوَّلَ
مَرَّةٍ
وَتَرَكْتُم
مَّا
خَوَّلْنَاكُمْ
وَرَاءَ
ظُهُورِكُمْ
وَمَا
نَرَى
مَعَكُمْ
شُفَعَاءَكُمُ
الَّذِينَ
زَعَمْتُمْ
أَنَّهُمْ
فِيكُمْ
شُرَكَاءُ
لَقَد
تَّقَطَّعَ
بَيْنَكُمْ
وَضَلَّ
عَنكُم
مَّا
كُنتُمْ
تَزْعُمُونَ

‘Certainly you have come to Us alone, just as We created you the first time, and left behind whatever We had bestowed on you. We do not see your intercessors with you—those whom you claimed to be [Our] partners in [deciding] you[r] [fate]. Certainly all links between you have been cut, and what you used to claim has forsaken you!’
— Ali Quli Qarai
"And behold! ye come to us bare and alone as We created you for the first time: ye have left behind you all (the favours) which We bestowed on you: We see not with you your intercessors whom ye thought to be partners in your affairs: so now all relations between you have been cut off, and your (pet) fancies have left you in the lurch!"
