Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
P: O ye who believe! Remember Allah's favour unto you, how a people were
minded to stretch out their hands against you but He withheld their
hands from you; and keep your duty to Allah. In Allah let believers put
their trust.
S: O you who believe! remember Allah's favor on you when a people had
determined to stretch forth their hands towards you, but He withheld
their hands from you, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; and on
Allah let the believers rely.
005.012
Y: Allah did aforetime take a covenant from the Children of Israel, and
we appointed twelve captains among them. And Allah said: "I am with
you: if ye (but) establish regular prayers, practise regular charity,
believe in my messengers, honour and assist them, and loan to Allah a
beautiful loan, verily I will wipe out from you your evils, and admit
you to gardens with rivers flowing beneath; but if any of you, after
this, resisteth faith, he hath truly wandered from the path or
rectitude."
P: Allah made a covenant of old with the Children of Israel and We
raised among them twelve chieftains, and Allah said: Lo! I am with you.
If ye establish worship and pay the poor-due, and believe in My
messengers and support them, and lend unto Allah a kindly loan, surely
I shall remit your sins, and surely I shall bring you into Gardens
underneath which rivers flow. Whoso among you disbelieveth after this
will go astray from a plain road.
S: And certainly Allah made a covenant with the children of Israel, and
We raised up among them twelve chieftains; and Allah said: Surely I am
with you; if you keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and believe in My
messengers and assist them and offer to Allah a goodly gift, I will
most certainly cover your evil deeds, and I will most certainly cause
you to enter into gardens beneath which rivers flow, but whoever
disbelieves from among you after that, he indeed shall lose the right
way.
005.013
Y: But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and
made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right)
places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor
wilt thou cease to find them- barring a few - ever bent on (new)
deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for Allah
loveth those who are kind.
P: And because of their breaking their covenant, We have cursed them and
made hard their hearts. They change words from their context and forget
a part of that whereof they were admonished. Thou wilt not cease to
discover treachery from all save a few of them. But bear with them and
pardon them. Lo! Allah loveth the kindly.
S: But on account of their breaking their covenant We cursed them and
made their hearts hard; they altered the words from their places and
they neglected a portion of what they were reminded of; and you shall
always discover treachery in them excepting a few of them; so pardon
them and turn away; surely Allah loves those who do good (to others).
