22. [It will be said], “You were certainly in heedlessness of this, and I have removed from you your cover, so your sight, this Day, is sharp.” It will be said to this human who is being driven, verily, in the world you were in neglect regarding this day because of you being deceived by your desires and pleasures. So I have removed your neglect from you by the punishment and horror you see before you. Your eyesight is sharp today; you now see everything you were neglectful of!
