Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali, Muhammad Muhsin Khan — 366

25:68 68. And those who invoke not any other ilâh (god) along with Allâh, nor kill such person as Allâh has forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse - and whoever does this shall receive the punishment.[6]

25:69 69. The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein in disgrace;

25:70 70. Except those who repent and believe (in Islâmic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds; for those, Allâh will change their sins into good deeds, and Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.[7]

25:71 71. And whosoever repents and does righteous good deeds; then verily, he repents towards Allâh with true repentance.

25:72 72. And those who do not bear witness to falsehood, and if they pass by some evil play or evil talk, they pass by it with dignity.

25:73 73. And those who, when they are reminded of the Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of their Lord, fall not deaf and blind thereat.

25:74 74. And those who say: "Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring the comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders of the Muttaqûn(the pious. See V.2:2)."

25:75 75. Those will be rewarded with the highest place (in Paradise) because of their patience. Therein they shall be met with greetings and the word of peace and respect.

25:76 76. Abiding therein - excellent it is as an abode, and as a place to rest in.

25:77 77. Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم to the disbelievers): "My Lord pays attention to you only because of your invocation to Him. But now you have indeed denied (Him). So the torment will be yours for ever (inseparable, permanent punishment)."
