Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
P: Then I shall come upon them from before them and from behind them and
from their right hands and from their left hands, and Thou wilt not
find most of them beholden (unto Thee).
S: Then I will certainly come to them from before them and from behind
them, and from their right-hand side and from their left-hand side; and
Thou shalt not find most of them thankful.
007.018
Y: (Allah) said: "Get out from this, disgraced and expelled. If any of
them follow thee,- Hell will I fill with you all."
P: He said: Go forth from hence, degraded, banished. As for such of them
as follow thee, surely I will fill hell with all of you.
S: He said: Get out of this (state), despised, driven away; whoever of
them will follow you, I will certainly fill hell with you all.
007.019
Y: "O Adam! dwell thou and thy wife in the Garden, and enjoy (its good
things) as ye wish: but approach not this tree, or ye run into harm and
transgression."
P: And (unto man): O Adam! Dwell thou and thy wife in the Garden and eat
from whence ye will, but come not nigh this tree lest ye become
wrong-doers.
S: And (We said): O Adam! Dwell you and your wife in the garden; so eat
from where you desire, but do not go near this tree, for then you will
be of the unjust.
007.020
Y: Then began Satan to whisper suggestions to them, bringing openly
before their minds all their shame that was hidden from them (before):
he said: "Your Lord only forbade you this tree, lest ye should become
angels or such beings as live for ever."
P: Then Satan whispered to them that he might manifest unto them that
which was hidden from them of their shame, and he said: Your Lord
forbade you from this tree only lest ye should become angels or become
of the immortals.
S: But the Shaitan made an evil suggestion to them that he might make
manifest to them what had been hidden from them of their evil
inclinations, and he said: Your Lord has not forbidden you this tree
except that you may not both become two angels or that you may (not)
become of the immortals.
007.021
Y: And he swore to them both, that he was their sincere adviser.
P: And he swore unto them (saying): Lo! I am a sincere adviser unto you.
S: And he swore to them both: Most surely I am a sincere adviser to you.
007.022
Y: So by deceit he brought about their fall: when they tasted of the
tree, their shame became manifest to them, and they began to sew
together the leaves of the garden over their bodies. And their Lord
called unto them: "Did I not forbid you that tree, and tell you that
Satan was an avowed enemy unto you?"
P: Thus did he lead them on with guile. And when they tasted of the tree
their shame was manifest to them and they began to hide (by heaping) on
themselves some of the leaves of the Garden. And their Lord called
them, (saying): Did I not forbid you from that tree and tell you: Lo!
Satan is an open enemy to you?
