إِلَّا
تَأْوِيلَهُ
يَوْمَ
يَأْتِي
تَأْوِيلُهُ
يَقُولُ
الَّذِينَ
نَسُوهُ
مِن
قَبْلُ
قَدْ
جَاءَتْ
رُسُلُ
رَبِّنَا
بِالْحَقِّ
فَهَل
لَّنَا
مِن
شُفَعَاءَ

لَنَا
أَوْ
نُرَدُّ
فَنَعْمَلَ
غَيْرَ
الَّذِي
كُنَّا
نَعْمَلُ
قَدْ
خَسِرُوا
أَنفُسَهُمْ
وَضَلَّ
عَنْهُم
مَّا
كَانُوا
يَفْتَرُونَ

Will anyone intercede for us or send us back (to life) so that we would be able to act in a different manner to that which we had done before?" These people have certainly lost their souls and their evil inventions (which they had used for false excuses) will vanish.
