بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
يَدْعُونَ
يَبْتَغُونَ
إِلَىٰ
رَبِّهِمُ
ٱلْوَسِيلَةَ
أَيُّهُمْ
أَقْرَبُ
وَيَرْجُونَ
رَحْمَتَهُۥ
وَيَخَافُونَ
عَذَابَهُۥٓ ۚ
إِنَّ
عَذَابَ
رَبِّكَ
كَانَ
مَحْذُورًۭا

Those [angels] they pray to are themselves seeking a way to their Lord, even those who are closest to Him. They hope for His mercy and fear His punishment. The punishment of your Lord is much to be feared:
