Davud dedi: “O sənin qoyununu öz qoyunlarına qatmaq istəməklə, sənə qarşı haqsızlıq etmişdir. Həqiqətən, şəriklərin çoxu bir-birinin haqqını tapdalayar. Yalnız iman gətirib yaxşı işlər görənlərdən başqa. Onlar isə çox azdırlar!” Bunları dedikdən sonra, Davud Bizim onu sınağa çəkdiyimizi yəqinləşdirərək, Rəbbindən özünün bağışlanmasını dilədi və səcdəyə qapanıb tövbə etdi.

(Bu sözləri eşidən Davud o biri iddiaçı ağzını açmağa macal tapmamış) dedi: ″O sənin bircə qoyununu öz qoyunlarına qatmaq istəməklə, şübhəsiz ki, sənə zülm etmişdir. Doğrudan da, şəriklərin çoxu bir-birinə haqsızlıq edər. Yalnız iman gətirib yaxşı işlər görənlərdən savayı! Onlar da (təəssüf ki) çox azdırlar!″ (İddiaçılar bir-birinə baxıb güldükdən, yaxud çıxıb getdikdən sonra) Davud (bu işdən şübhəyə düşərək) Bizim onu imtahana çəkdiyimizi güman etdi. O dərhal Rəbbindən öz bağışlanmasını dilədi və dizi üstə düşüb səcdəyə qapanaraq tövbə etdi.

Almanca — Al-Azhar

Ohne den anderen anzuhören, sprach David: ʺEr hat dir dadurch unrecht getan, daß er dein Mutterschaf zu seinen eigenen hinzuverlangte. Viele Partner tun einander unrecht, ausgenommen die Rechtschaffenen, die wahrhaftig an Gott glauben und gute Werke verrichten. Das sind sehr wenige.ʺ David erkannte, daß Wir ihn geprüft hatten. Er bat Gott um Vergebung, kniete vor Ihm nieder und tat reumütig Buße.

Almanca — Der Edle Quran

Er sagte: ʺEr hat dir Unrecht getan, daß er dein Schaf zu seinen Schafen hinzu verlangte. Gewiß, viele von den Teilhabern begehen gegeneinander Übergriffe, außer denjenigen, die glauben und rechtschaffene Werke tun - und das sind nur wenige.ʺ Und Dawud verstand, daß Wir ihn nur der Versuchung ausgesetzt hatten. Da bat er seinen Herrn um Vergebung und fiel in Verbeugung nieder und wandte sich (Ihm) reuig zu.

Almanca — M. A. Rassoul

Er (David) sagte: ʺWahrlich, er hat ein Unrecht an dir verübt, als er dein Mutterschaf zu seinen eigenen Mutterschafen hinzu verlangte. Und gewiß, viele Teilhaber vergehen sich gegeneinander; nur die (sind davon) ausgenommen, die glauben und gute Werke tun; und das sind wenige.ʺ Und David merkte, daß Wir ihn auf die Probe gestellt hatten; also bat er seinen Herrn um Verzeihung und fiel betend nieder und bekehrte sich.

Almanca — Muhammad Zaidan

Er sagte: ʺGewiß, bereits tat er dir Unrecht mit seiner Forderung zur Überlassung deines Schafsweibchen zu seinen Schafsweibchen. Und gewiß, die meisten der Beteiligten begehen doch Übertretungen die einen von ihnen gegen die anderen außer denjenigen, die den Iman verinnerlicht und gottgefällig Gutes getan haben. Doch diese sind wenige.ʺ Und Dawud dachte, daß WIR ihn nur einer Fitna unterzogen haben. Dann bat er seinen HERRN um Vergebung, fiel in Rukuʹ nieder und war umkehrend.

Abdel Khalek Himmat

And there said Dawud in his judicial decision. "He, your brother has wronged you indeed by asking you to add your ewe to his ewes and sure enough some of the business partners, and they are many, do wrong their associates except those in whose hearts reigns habitual reverence and obedience to Allah and their deeds reflect wisdom and piety and how few they are". There and then it occurred to Dawud that We had tried him and He invoked Allah, his Creators for forgiveness and fell down with comely prostration of his body expressing repentance. He had listened to the claimant and neglected the defendant

Abdul Haleem

David said, ‘He has done you wrong by demanding to add your ewe to his flock. Many partners treat each other unfairly. Those who sincerely believe and do good deeds do not do this, but these are very few.’ [Then] David realized that We had been testing him, so he asked his Lord for forgiveness, fell down on his knees, and repented:

Abdullah Yusuf Ali

(David) said: "He has undoubtedly wronged thee in demanding thy (single) ewe to be added to his (flock of) ewes: truly many are the partners (in business) who wrong each other: Not so do those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, and how few are they?"... and David gathered that We had tried him: he asked forgiveness of his Lord, fell down, bowing (in prostration), and turned (to Allah in repentance).

Abul A'la Maududi

Aisha Bewley

He said, ‘He has wronged you by asking for your ewe to add to his ewes. Truly many partners are unjust to one another – except those who have iman and do right actions, and how few they are!’ Dawud realised that We had put him to the test. He begged forgiveness from his Lord and fell down prone, prostrating, and repented.

Al-Hilali & Khan

[Dâwûd (David)] said (immediately without listening to the opponent): "He has wronged you in demanding your ewe in addition to his ewes. And, verily, many partners oppress one another, except those who believe and do righteous good deeds, and they are few." And Dâwûd (David) guessed that We have tried him and he sought Forgiveness of his Lord, and he fell down prostrate and turned (to Allâh) in repentance.

Ali Quli Qarai

He said, ‘He has certainly wronged you by asking your ewe in addition to his ewes, and indeed many partners bully one another, except such as have faith and do righteous deeds, and few are they. ’ Then David knew that We had indeed tested him, whereat he pleaded with his Lord for forgiveness, and fell down prostrate and repented.

Amatul Rahman Omar

(David) said, `He has certainly been unjust to you in demanding your ewe (to be added) to his own ewes. And surely many partners transgress against one another except those who believe (in God) and do deeds of righteousness. Yet how few are these!' (While saying this) David realised that We had tried him, therefore he sought protection of his Lord and fell down bowing in worship and turned (to his Lord) in repentance.

Arthur John Arberry

Said he, 'Assuredly he has wronged thee in asking for thy ewe in addition to his sheep; and indeed many intermixers do injury one against the other, save those who believe, and do deeds of righteousness -- and how few they are!' And David thought that We had only tried him; therefore he sought forgiveness of his Lord, and he fell down, bowing, and he repented.

Bijan Moeinian

David said: "This person is definitely wrong. In fact the people who live together are prone to be unjust to each other save a few believer who are extremely righteous." David suddenly realized that he himself has been tried by this case [as he had asked Uriah to divorce his wife and let David add her to the list of his wives.] David then fell down prostrate and begged his Lord for forgiveness for his wrong intention.

E. Henry Palmer

Said he, 'He wronged thee in asking for thy ewe in addition to his own ewes. Verily, many associates do injure one another, except those who believe and do what is right, and very few are they!' And he thought that we were trying him; and he asked pardon of his Lord and fell down bowing, and did turn;

Edip-Layth

He said, "He has wronged you by asking to combine your lambs with his lambs. Many who mix their properties take advantage of one another, except those who acknowledge and promote reforms, and these are very few." David guessed that We had tested him, so he sought forgiveness from his Lord, and fell down kneeling, and repented.

George Sale

David answered, verily he hath wronged thee, in demanding thine ewe as an addition to his own sheep: And many of them who are concerned together in business, wrong one another, except those who believe and do that which is right; but how few are they! And David perceived that We had tried him by this parable, and he asked pardon of his Lord: And he fell down and bowed himself, and repented.

Hamid S. Aziz

He said, "Surely he has been unjust to you in demanding your ewe (to add) to his own ewes. Lo! Many partners act wrongfully towards one another, except those who believe and do good, and very few are they." And David was sure that We had tried him. So he sought the protection of his Lord and he fell down bowing and turned in repentance (to Him).

Mahmoud Ghali

He (Dawûd) said, "Indeed he has already done an injustice to you in asking for your ewe (in addition) to his ewes; and surely many intermixes are indeed inequitable one against the other, (Literally: some of them are unfair to some "others") except the ones who have believed and done deeds of righteousness, and how few they are!" And Dawûd surmised that We had only tempted (Or: tried) him; so he asked forgiveness of his Lord, and he collapsed bowing down and turned penitent. A prostration is to be performed here.

Marmaduke Pickthall

(David) said: He hath wronged thee in demanding thine ewe in addition to his ewes, and lo! many partners oppress one another, save such as believe and do good works, and they are few. And David guessed that We had tried him, and he sought forgiveness of his Lord, and he bowed himself and fell down prostrate and repented.

Mohamed Ahmed - Samira

(David) said: "He is unjust in demanding your ewe to add to his (many) ewes. Many partners are surely -- unjust to one another, except those who believe and do the right; but there are only a few of them." It occurred to David that he was being tried by Us, and he begged his Lord to forgive him, and fell down in homage and repented.

Muhammad Asad

Said [David]: "He has certainly wronged thee by demanding that thy ewe be added to his ewes! Thus, behold, do many kinsmen wrong one another [all] save those who believe [in God] and do righteous deeds: but how few are they!" And [suddenly] David understood that We had tried him: and so he asked his Sustainer to forgive him his sin, and fell down in prostration, and turned unto Him in repentance.

Mustafa Khattab

David ˹eventually˺ ruled, "He has definitely wronged you in demanding ˹to add˺ your sheep to his. And certainly many partners wrong each other, except those who believe and do good—but how few are they!" Then David realized that We had tested him so he asked for his Lord’s forgiveness, fell down in prostration, and turned ˹to Him in repentance˺.

Progressive Muslims

He said: "He has wronged you by asking to combine your lambs with his lambs.

And David guessed that We had tested him, so he sought forgiveness from his Lord, and fell down kneeling, and repented.

And David became certain that We had tried him, and he asked forgiveness of his Lord and fell down bowing [in prostration] and turned in repentance [to Allah ].

Sam Gerrans

Said he: “He has wronged thee in asking thy ewe for his ewes; and many among acquaintances oppress one another save those who heed warning and do righteous deeds — and few are they.” And David understood that We had but subjected him to means of denial; and he asked forgiveness of his Lord, and fell down humbly and repented.

Shabbir Ahmed

David said, "He has certainly wronged you in demanding your farm in addition to his farms. Thus, behold, many close associates and business-partners treat each other unfairly - except those who believe in the Divine Values and care for the needs of others - but how few are they!" Afterwards, David wondered that We had tried him. (The feudal and economic system in his kingdom needed reform, as the poor were getting poorer). He implored his Lord to absolve his imperfections, and he immediately bowed himself and turned unto Him for guidance.

Syed Vickar Ahamed

(Dawood) said: "Without a doubt he has done wrong to you by asking you for (the single) sheep to add to his (flock of) sheep: And truly, there are many partners (in business) who do wrong to each other, except those who believe and work deeds of righteousness do not act like that, and how few are they?". .. And Dawood (David) gathered that We had tried him, and he asked forgiveness from his Lord, and he fell down, bowing (in prostration), and turned (to Allah in repentance).

He (Dawūd) said, "He has certainly wronged you by demanding your ewe to be added to his ewe.

Fransızca — Muhammad Hamidullah

Il (David) dit: ʺIl a été certes injuste envers toi en demandant de joindre ta brebis à ses brebisʺ. Beaucoup de gens transgressent les droits de leurs associés, sauf ceux qui croient et accomplissent les bonnes œuvres - cependant ils sont bien rares -. Et David pensa alors que Nous lʹavions mis à lʹépreuve. Il demanda donc pardon à son Seigneur et tomba prosterné et se repentit.

Kürtçe Meal

Dawud jê re wiha got: Sond be; wî bi xwestina mêşina te, ji bo bixe nav mêşinên xwe neheqî li te kiriye. Bêguman pirên şerîkan, tecawizî mafê hev dikin. Lê belê şerîkên ku bawerî bînin û karên qenc bikin ew cuda ne, ew jî pir pir hindik in! Dawud bawer kir ku me ew îmtîhan kiriye. Ji Xwedayê xwe lêborîn xwest, çû sicûdê û tobe kir.

En hij zei: ʺHij heeft jou onrecht aangedaan door jouw schaap nog bij zijn schapen te vragen. Velen van hen die gemeenschappelijk eigendom hebben behandelen elkaar onrechtmatig. Alleen niet zij die geloven en de deugdelijke daden doen, maar met hoe weinigen zijn zij!ʺ En Dawoed vermoedde wel dat Wij hem in verzoeking gebracht hadden en hij vroeg zijn Heer om vergeving, viel buigend neer en betoonde zich schuldbewust. --

Hollandaca — Salomo Keyzer

David antwoordde: Waarlijk hij heeft u slecht behandeld, door u uwe ooi te vragen, als eene bijvoeging tot zijne eigen schapen; en velen van hen, die eene zaak met elkander hebben, benadeelen elkander, behalve zij, die gelooven en doen wat rechtvaardig is. Maar hoe weinigen zijn dat! En David bemerkte, dat wij hem door deze gelijkenis hadden beproefd, en hij vroeg vergiffenis van zijn Heer; hij viel neder, boog zich en betoonde berouw.

Hollandaca — Siregar

Bij (Dâwôed) zei: ʺVoorzeker, hij heeft jou onrechtvaardig behandeld met de eis om jouw ooi am zijn ooien toe te voegen. En voorwaar, vele genoten behandelen elkaar onrechtvaardig, behalve degenen die geloven en die goede werken verrichten, en zij zijn slechts weinigen. En Dâwôed vermoedde dat Wij hem op de proef stelden, waarop hij zijn Heer om vergeving smeekte. Hij boog zich neer en hij toonde berouw.

Rusça — Ebu Adel

Сказал он [пророк Дауд]: «Он [твой брат] поступил по отношению к тебе несправедливо, прося твою овцу (присоединить) к своим. И (ведь) поистине, многие из соучастников (по какому-либо делу) злоумышляют друг на друга [покушаются на права другого], кроме только тех, которые уверовали и совершали праведные деяния [кроме праведных верующих] – и их [таких] мало». И подумал Дауд, что Мы только подвергли его испытанию (этим спором), и попросил прощения у Господа своего, и пал с поклоном, и обратился (к Нему) (с покаянием).

Rusça — Osmanov

[Давуд] ответил: ʺОн поступил по отношению к тебе противозаконно, требуя присоединить твою овцу к своим. Ведь многие сотоварищи поступают противозаконно по отношению Друг к другу, кроме тех, которые уверовали, вершили добрые дела. Но таких малоʺ. Давуд уразумел, что Мы только подвергли его испытанию, попросил прощения у Господа своего, поклонился, пал ниц и раскаялся.

İsveççe — Knut Bernström

(David) sade: ʺUtan tvivel har han gjort dig orätt när han krävde att få din tacka utöver dem han redan hade! Många människor som har gemensamma intressen gör sig skyldiga till (sådana) övergrepp mot varandra, utom de som tror och lever ett rättskaffens liv, men de är ett fåtal.ʺ Nu förstod David att Vi hade velat sätta honom på prov, och han bad sin Herre om förlåtelse och föll ned på sitt ansikte i bön och ånger.
