Azerice — Alihan Musayev

Məgər onlar yer üzündə gəzib dolaşaraq özlərindən öncəkilərin aqibətini görmədilərmi? Onlar bunlardan da güclü idilər. Onlar torpağı şumlayır, yer üzünü bunlardan daha çox abadlaşdırırdılar. Elçiləri onlara açıq-aydın möcüzələr gətirirdilər. Onlara Allah zülm etmirdi. Onlar özləri özlərinə zülm etmişdilər.

Azerice — V. Memmedeliyev ve Ziya Bünyadov

Məgər onlar yer üzünü gəzib özlərindən əvvəlkilərin aqibətinin necə olduğunu görmürlərmi? Onlar (Ad, Səmud tayfaları) bunlardan daha qüvvətli idilər. Onlar (əkinçilik məqsədilə) torpağı qazıb altını üstünə çevirmiş və yer üzünü bunlardan daha çox adab etmişdilər. Peyğəmbərləri onlara açıq-aşkar möʼcüzələr gətirmişdilər. Allah onlara zülm etmirdi, onlar özləri özlərinə zülm edirdilər.

Almanca — Al-Azhar

Sind sie nicht auf der Erde umhergegangen, um zu sehen, welches Ende den trotzigen Völkern vor ihnen beschieden war? Sie waren viel mächtiger als sie, haben die Erde gepflügt, ausgebeutet und bebaut und längere Zeit darauf gelebt als sie. Ihre Gesandten kamen zu ihnen mit den klaren Beweiszeichen, die sie abschlugen. Gott wollte ihnen nicht unrecht tun, sondern sie haben sich selbst unrecht getan.

Almanca — Der Edle Quran

Sind sie denn nicht auf der Erde umhergereist, so daß sie schauen (konnten), wie das Ende derjenigen war, die vor ihnen waren? Sie hatten eine stärkere Kraft als sie, pflügten und bevölkerten das Land noch mehr, als sie es bevölkerten. Und ihre Gesandten kamen zu ihnen mit den klaren Beweisen. Aber nimmer ist es Allah, der ihnen Unrecht getan hat, sondern sie selbst haben sich Unrecht zugefügt.

Almanca — M. A. Rassoul

Sind sie denn nicht im Lande umhergezogen, so daß sie schauen konnten, wie das Ende derer war, die vor ihnen lebten? Jene waren noch mächtiger als sie, und sie bebauten das Land und bevölkerten es mehr, als diese es bevölkert haben. Und ihre Gesandten kamen mit den Beweisen zu ihnen. Und nicht Allah wollte ihnen Unrecht antun, sondern sie taten sich selbst Unrecht.

Almanca — Muhammad Zaidan

Zogen sie etwa nicht auf der Erde umher, damit sie sehen, wie das Anschließende Derjenigen vor ihnen war?! Sie waren noch mächtiger als sie, sie pflügten die Erde und bebauten sie noch mehr als diese sie bebauten. Auch ihre Gesandten kamen zu ihnen mit den klaren Zeichen. Also es gebührt ALLAH nicht, ihnen Unrecht anzutun, doch sie pflegten sich selbst Unrecht anzutun.

Abdel Khalek Himmat

Have they -the Meccans- not journeyed through the land and looked with their minds' eyes to see what was the end of those who preceded them, who wore far mightier and their diligence never wearied! They broke up the earth and turned over the soil and populated and peopled the land far more than these people have done! Their Messengers presented them with convincing divine signs and revelations -but they closed their, minds' eyes and counselled deaf-. Therefore it was not Allah Who would wrong them but it was they who wronged themselves.

Abdul Haleem

Have they not travelled through the land and seen how their predecessors met their end? They were mightier than them: they cultivated the earth more and built more upon it. Their own mes-sengers also came to them with clear signs: God did not wrong them; they wronged themselves.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Do they not travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those before them? They were superior to them in strength: they tilled the soil and populated it in greater numbers than these have done: there came to them their messengers with Clear (Signs). (Which they rejected, to their own destruction): It was not Allah Who wronged them, but they wronged their own souls.

Abul A'la Maududi

Aisha Bewley

Have they not travelled in the earth and seen the final fate of those before them? They had greater strength than them and cultivated the land and inhabited it in far greater numbers than they do. Their Messengers also came to them with the Clear Signs. Allah would never have wronged them; but they wronged themselves.

Al-Hilali & Khan

Do they not travel in the land, and see what was the end of those before them? They were superior to them in strength, and they tilled the earth and populated it in greater numbers than these (pagans) have done: and there came to them their Messengers with clear proofs. Surely, Allâh wronged them not, but they used to wrong themselves.

Ali Quli Qarai

Have they not traveled in the land so that they may observe how was the fate of those who were before them? They were more powerful than them, and they plowed the earth and developed it more than they have developed it. Their apostles brought them manifest proofs. So it was not Allah who wronged them, but it was they who used to wrong themselves.

Amatul Rahman Omar

Have they not travelled through the land and seen how (evil) was the end of those who were before them? They (- their predecessors) were superior to them in prowess and strength. They tilled the land (built structures and dug up minerals from it), and populated it more and better than these have populated it. And their Messengers (of God) had come to them with manifest signs (but they denied them and were destroyed). It was indeed far from Allâh to have done injustice to them but they themselves wronged their own souls.

Arthur John Arberry

What, have they not journeyed in the land and beheld how was the end of those before them? They were stronger than themselves in might, and they ploughed up the earth and cultivated it more than they themselves have cultivated it; and their Messengers came to them with the clear signs; and God would never wrong them, but themselves they wronged.

Bijan Moeinian

Do the people not travel and see what happened to the disbelievers before them? They used to be more powerful, more prosperous and more advanced. It was not God who was unjust to them. [On the contrary,] God [out of His mercy] sent them Prophets with undeniable miracles [to guide them to the right path.] It was they who were unjust to their own soul [and chose the wrong path.]

E. Henry Palmer

Have they not journeyed on in the land and seen how was the end of those before them who were stronger than they, and who turned up the ground and cultivated it more than they do cultivate it? and there came to them their apostles with manifest signs; for God would never wrong them: it was themselves they wronged!

Edip-Layth

Did they not roam the earth and see how it ended for those before them? They were more powerful than them, and they cultivated the land and they built in it far more than these have built, and their messengers came to them with the proofs. God was not to wrong them, but it was they who wronged themselves.

George Sale

Do they not pass through the earth, and see what hath been the end of those who were before them? They excelled the Meccans in strength, and broke up the earth, and inhabited it in greater affluence and prosperity than they inhabit the same: And their apostles came unto them with evident miracles; and God was not disposed to treat them unjustly, but they injured their own souls by their obstinate infidelity;

Hamid S. Aziz

Do they not reflect within themselves: Allah did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them but with Truth, and for an appointed term (or destined end)? But truly most of the people are disbelievers in the meeting with their Lord.

Mahmoud Ghali

And have they not traveled in the earth, (and) so looked into how was the end of those even before them? They were more pervasive in power than themselves, and plowed (Literally: stirred up) the earth, and cultivated it more (i. e., populated it and were more eminent) than they themselves have cultivated it; and their Messengers came to them with the supreme evidence (s); so indeed in no way did Allah do (any) injustice to them, but to themselves they used to do injustice.

Marmaduke Pickthall

Have they not travelled in the land and seen the nature of the consequence for those who were before them? They were stronger than these in power, and they dug the earth and built upon it more than these have built. Messengers of their own came unto them with clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty). Surely Allah wronged them not, but they did wrong themselves.

Mohamed Ahmed - Samira

Have they not travelled on the earth and seen how the others before them had met their end? They were far more powerful than them, furrowed the earth and colonised it far more than they; and their apostles came to them with visible signs. It was surely not for God to wrong them, they wronged themselves.

Muhammad Asad

Have they, then, never journeyed about the earth and beheld what happened in the end to those [deniers of the truth] who lived before their time? Greater were they in power than they are; and they left a stronger impact on the earth, and built it up even better than these [are doing]; and to them [too] came their apostles with all evidence of the truth: and so, [when they rejected the truth and thereupon perished,] it was not God who wronged them, but it was they who had wronged themselves.

Mustafa Khattab

Have they not travelled throughout the land to see what was the end of those ˹destroyed˺ before them? They were far superior in might; they cultivated the land and developed it more than these ˹Meccans˺ ever have. Their messengers came to them with clear proofs. Allah would have never wronged them, but it was they who wronged themselves.

Progressive Muslims

Did they not roam the Earth and see how it ended for those before them They were more powerful than them, and they cultivated the land and they built in it far more than these have built, and their messengers came to them with the proofs. God was not to wrong them, but it was they who wronged themselves.

Sahih International

Have they not traveled through the earth and observed how was the end of those before them? They were greater than them in power, and they plowed the earth and built it up more than they have built it up, and their messengers came to them with clear evidences. And Allah would not ever have wronged them, but they were wronging themselves.

Sam Gerrans

Have they not travelled in the earth and seen how was the final outcome of those who were before them? They were stronger than them in power, and they tilled the earth and inhabited it more than they have inhabited it; and their messengers came to them with clear signs; and God wronged them not, but they wronged their souls.

Shabbir Ahmed

(Reflecting on your own existence, the Universe, and on history can show you the Truth. ) Have they not, then, traveled in the land and seen what happened in the end to those who lived before them? They were more powerful than these are, and they left a stronger impact on the earth, and built it up better than these are doing. And to them came their Messengers with all evidence of the Truth. It was not Allah Who wronged them, but it was they who used to wrong their own "Self". (35:44), (40:21)

Syed Vickar Ahamed

Do they not travel in (and about) the earth; And see what was the end of those before them? They were superior (and) stronger than these (men): And they tilled the soil and populated it with more (men) than these (men): To them (the earlier people) came their messengers with Clear (Signs), (whom they rejected, to their own destruction): And it was not Allah Who wronged them, but they wronged themselves (their own souls).

Taqi Usmani

Have they not traveled on earth to see how was the end of those before them? They were stronger than these in power, and they had tilled the land and had made it more populous than these have made it, and their messengers had come to them with clear proofs. So Allah was not such as could do injustice to them, but they used to do injustice to themselves.

The Monotheist Group

Did they not roam the earth and see how it ended for those before them? They were more powerful than them, and they cultivated the land and they built in it far more than these have built, and their messengers came to them with the proofs. God was not to wrong them, but it was they who wronged themselves.

Fransızca — Muhammad Hamidullah

Nʹont-ils pas parcouru la terre pour voir ce quʹil est advenu de ceux qui ont vécu avant eux? Ceux-là les surpassaient en puissance et avaient labouré et peuplé la terre bien plus quʹils ne lʹont fait eux-mêmes. Leurs messagers leur vinrent avec des preuves évidentes. Ce nʹest pas Allah qui leur fit du tort; mais ils se firent du tort à eux-mêmes.

Kürtçe Meal

Ma ew li ser rûyê erdê negeriyane, vêca ku binêrin ka encama umetên beriya wan çawa bûye? Ku ew bi xwe jî, ji wan xurttir bûn û wan erd bêhtir çandibûn û bêhtir avasaz kiribûn. Pêxemberên wan jî ji wan re gelek delîl û mucîzeyên aşkera anîbûn. Vêca Xwedê ne ew bû ku zilmê li wan bike, lê belê wan bi xwe zilm li xwe dikir.

Hollandaca — Fred Leemhuis

Hebben zij dan niet op de aarde rondgereisd en ernaar gekeken hoe het einde van hen was die er voor hen waren? Die waren sterker dan zij en ploegden en bebouwden het land meer dan zij het bebouwden. En tot hen kwamen hun gezanten met de duidelijke bewijzen. God was niet zo dat Hij hun onrecht aandeed, maar zij deden zichzelf onrecht aan.

Hollandaca — Salomo Keyzer

Gaan zij niet over de aarde, en zien zij niet wat het einde was van degenen die hen voorafgingen? Deze overtroffen de bewoners van Mekka in kracht, braken de aarde open en woonden daar in grooteren overvloed en voorspoed dan zij; en hunne gezanten kwamen met duidelijke wonderen tot hen, en God was niet geneigd, hen onrechtvaardig te behandelen; maar zij mishandelden hunne eigene zielen door hun hardnekkig ongeloof.

Hollandaca — Siregar

En reizen zij (ongelovigen) niet op de aarde, zodat zij zien hoe het einde was van degenen vóór hen? Zij waren sterker in kracht dan zij. En zij bewerkten de aarde en zij bebouwden haar meer dan zij (de ongelovigen) haar bebouwden. En hun Boodschappers waren tot hen gekomen met de duidelijke bewijzen. Het was Allah niet die hun onrecht aandeed, maar zij deden zichzelf onrecht aan.

Rusça — Ebu Adel

Разве они [неверующие мекканцы и другие] не странствовали по земле [разве они не были в Йемене и в Шаме] и (разве они) не видели, каков был конец тех (народов, которые не подчинились Аллаху), которые были до них [что произошло с адитами и самудянами]? Они [адиты и самудяне] были мощнее их [мекканцев] (телесной) силой, и взрыли землю (вспахав ее и построив дворцы и жилища), и обжили ее [землю] больше, чем обжили они [мекканцы]. Приходили к ним [к тем народам] их посланники с ясными знамениями [с откровением и доказательствами от Аллаха] (но они не уверовали в них). (И Аллах наказал их за то, что они отвергли Его посланников и продолжали упорствовать в своих грехах.). И не таков Аллах, чтобы поступить с ними [с погубленными народами] несправедливо, но они сами поступили по отношению к самим себе несправедливо (проявляя неверие и совершая злодеяния)!

Rusça — Osmanov

Неужели они не странствовали по земле и не видели, каков был исход тех, кто жил до них? Они превосходили их мощью, они пахали землю и возделывали ее лучше, чем это делали [мекканские многобожники]. К ним явились посланники с ясными знамениями. Аллах не собирался поступать с ними несправедливо, это сами они несправедливы по отношению к себе.

İsveççe — Knut Bernström

Har de aldrig begett sig ut i världen och sett (spåren som visar) hur slutet blev för dem som levde före deras tid (och som förnekade sanningen)? De var mäktigare än sina (sentida efterföljare) och brukade jorden bättre och byggde upp ett större (välstånd) än (efterföljarna). Sändebud kom (också) till dem med klara vittnesbörd om sanningen. Men (när de drabbades av Guds straff) var det inte Han som gjorde dem orätt - det var de som hade gjort orätt mot sig själva.
