[17] Verily We have tried them as We tried the
People of the Garden, when they resolved to gather the fruits of the
(garden) in the morning,
[18] But made no reservation, ("If it be Allah's
Will").
[19] Then there came on the (garden) a visitation
from thy Lord, (which swept away) all around, while they were
asleep.
[20] So the (garden) became, by the morning, like
a dark and desolate spot, (whose fruit had been gathered).
[21] As the morning broke, they called out, one
to another,
[22] "Go ye to your tilth (betimes) in the
morning, if ye would gather the fruits."
[23] So they departed, conversing in secret low
tones, (saying),
[24] "Let not a single indigent person break in
upon you into the (garden) this day."
[25] And they opened the morning, strong in an
(unjust) resolve.
