Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
P: Say (unto them): If the abode of the Hereafter in the providence of
Allah is indeed for you alone and not for others of mankind (as ye
pretend), then long for death (for ye must long for death) if ye are
truthful.
S: Say: If the future abode with Allah is specially for you to the
exclusion of the people, then invoke death if you are truthful.
002.095
Y: But they will never seek for death, on account of the (sins) which
their hands have sent on before them. And Allah is well-acquainted with
the wrong-doers.
P: But they will never long for it, because of that which their own
hands have sent before them. Allah is aware of evil-doers.
S: And they will never invoke it on account of what their hands have
sent before, and Allah knows the unjust.
002.096
Y: Thou wilt indeed find them, of all people, most greedy of life,-even
more than the idolaters: Each one of them wishes He could be given a
life of a thousand years: But the grant of such life will not save him
from (due) punishment. For Allah sees well all that they do.
P: And thou wilt find them greediest of mankind for life and (greedier)
than the idolaters. (Each) one of them would like to be allowed to live
a thousand years. And to live (a thousand years) would be no means
remove him from the doom. Allah is Seer of what they do.
S: And you will most certainly find them the greediest of men for life
(greedier) than even those who are polytheists; every one of them loves
that he should be granted a life of a thousand years, and his being
granted a long life will in no way remove him further off from the
chastisement, and Allah sees what they do.
002.097
Y: Say: Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel-for he brings down the
(revelation) to thy heart by Allah's will, a confirmation of what went
before, and guidance and glad tidings for those who believe,-
P: Say (O Muhammad, to mankind): Who is an enemy to Gabriel! For he it
is who hath revealed (this Scripture) to thy heart by Allah's leave,
confirming that which was (revealed) before it, and a guidance and glad
tidings to believers;
S: Say: Whoever is the enemy of Jibreel-- for surely he revealed it to
your heart by Allah's command, verifying that which is before it and
guidance and good news for the believers.
002.098
Y: Whoever is an enemy to Allah and His angels and messengers, to
Gabriel and Michael,- Lo! Allah is an enemy to those who reject Faith.
P: Who is an enemy to Allah, and His angels and His messengers, and
Gabriel and Michael! Then, lo! Allah (Himself) is an enemy to the
disbelievers.
S: Whoever is the enemy of Allah and His angels and His messengers and
Jibreel and Meekaeel, so surely Allah is the enemy of the unbelievers.
002.099
Y: We have sent down to thee Manifest Signs (ayat); and none reject them
but those who are perverse.
P: Verily We have revealed unto thee clear tokens, and only miscreants
will disbelieve in them.
