Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
S: Evil is that for which they have sold their souls-- that they should
deny what Allah has revealed, out of envy that Allah should send down
of His grace on whomsoever of His servants He pleases; so they have
made themselves deserving of wrath upon wrath, and there is a
disgraceful punishment for the unbelievers.
002.091
Y: When it is said to them: "Believe in what Allah Hath sent down,"
they say, "We believe in what was sent down to us": yet they reject all
besides, even if it be Truth confirming what is with them. Say: "Why
then have ye slain the prophets of Allah in times gone by, if ye did
indeed believe?"
P: And when it is said unto them: Believe in that which Allah hath
revealed, they say: We believe in that which was revealed unto us. And
they disbelieve in that which cometh after it, though it is the truth
confirming that which they possess. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Why
then slew ye the prophets of Allah aforetime, if ye are (indeed)
believers?
S: And when it is said to them, Believe in what Allah has revealed, they
say: We believe in that which was revealed to us; and they deny what is
besides that, while it is the truth verifying that which they have.
Say: Why then did you kill Allah's Prophets before if you were indeed
believers?
002.092
Y: There came to you Moses with clear (Signs); yet ye worshipped the
calf (Even) after that, and ye did behave wrongfully.
P: And Moses came unto you with clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty),
yet, while he was away, ye chose the calf (for worship) and ye were
wrong-doers.
S: And most certainly Musa came to you with clear arguments, then you
took the calf (for a god) in his absence and you were unjust.
002.093
Y: And remember We took your covenant and We raised above you (the
towering height) of Mount (Sinai): (Saying): "Hold firmly to what We
have given you, and hearken (to the Law)": They said: "We hear, and we
disobey": And they had to drink into their hearts (of the taint) of the
calf because of their Faithlessness. Say: "Vile indeed are the behests
of your Faith if ye have any faith!"
P: And when We made with you a covenant and caused the Mount to tower
above you, (saying): Hold fast by that which We have given you, and
hear (Our Word), they said: We hear and we rebel. And (worship of) the
calf was made to sink into their hearts because of their rejection (of
the covenant). Say (unto them): Evil is that which your belief
enjoineth on you, if ye are believers.
S: And when We made a covenant with you and raised the mountain over
you: Take hold of what We have given you with firmness and be obedient.
They said: We hear and disobey. And they were made to imbibe (the love
of) the calf into their hearts on account of their unbelief Say: Evil
is that which your belief bids you if you are believers.
002.094
Y: Say: "If the last Home, with Allah, be for you specially, and not for
anyone else, then seek ye for death, if ye are sincere."
