ٱسْتَجِيبُوا۟ لِرَبِّكُم مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِىَ يَوْمٌ لَّا مَرَدَّ لَهُۥ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ ۚ مَا لَكُم مِّن مَّلْجَإٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن نَّكِيرٍ Qur’an Ash-Shura (42:47)
Istajeeboo lirabbikum min qabli an yatiya yawmun l a maradda lahu mina All a hi m a lakum min maljain yawmai th in wam a lakum min nakeer in
[Hence, O men,] respond to your Sustainer before there comes, at God's behest,47 a Day on which there will be no turning back: [for] on that Day you will have no place of refuge, and neither will you be able to deny aught [of the wrong that you have done].
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

Lit., "from God".

Answer the call of your Rabb before that Day arrives which cannot be averted against the will of Allah. There shall be no refuge for you on that Day, nor shall you be able to deny your sins.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Respond to your Lord before the coming of a Day from Allah that cannot be averted. There will be no refuge for you then, nor 'grounds for' denial 'of sins'.1
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab

 Other possible translations: 1. “You will have no refuge then, nor will you have an advocate ˹against punishment˺.” 2. “You will have no refuge then, nor ˹grounds˺ to protest ˹the torment˺.”

Answer the call of your Lord before there cometh unto you from Allah a Day which there is no averting. Ye have no refuge on that Day, nor have ye any (power of) refusal.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall

Hearken ye to your Lord before there come a Day which there will be no putting back because of (the ordainment of) Allah! That Day there will be for you no place of refuge nor will there be for you any room for denial (of your sins)! 4591 4592
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Day of Judgment is inevitable. Allah has ordained it, and it cannot in any way be put back.

At Judgment no one can escape the consequences of his crimes or deeds. And no one can disavow them or deny them, or by any chance pretend that they do not apply to him.
