Je was op zoek naar: jee, ni usiki au mchana? (Swahili - Engels)

ni kama kwamba wao siku watapo iona (hiyo saa) hawakukaa ila jioni moja tu, au mchana wake.
it shall be as if; on the day they see it, they have but tarried for an evening, or its forenoon.

ask them, "what benefit can criminals get from their demand that god must punish them immediately if his words are true?" whether his punishment befalls them during the day or night (they will not be able to escape).

mpaka ardhi ilipo kamilika uzuri wake, na ikapambika, na wenyewe wakadhani wamesha iweza, iliifikia amri yetu usiku au mchana, tukaifanya kama iliyo fyekwa - kama kwamba haikuwapo jana.
but when the earth has taken on its finest appearance, and looks beautiful, and its people think they have it under their control, then by day or by night, our command comes to it and we convert it into a field of stubble, as if nothing had existed there the day before.

hakika mfano wa maisha ya dunia ni kama maji tuliyo yateremsha kutoka mbinguni, kisha yakachanganyika na mimea ya ardhi wanayo ila watu na wanyama. mpaka ardhi ilipo kamilika uzuri wake, na ikapambika, na wenyewe wakadhani wamesha iweza, iliifikia amri yetu usiku au mchana, tukaifanya kama iliyo fyekwa - kama kwamba haikuwapo jana.
the example of [this] worldly life is but like rain which we have sent down from the sky that the plants of the earth absorb - [those] from which men and livestock eat - until, when the earth has taken on its adornment and is beautified and its people suppose that they have capability over it, there comes to it our command by night or by day, and we make it as a harvest, as if it had not flourished yesterday.
