Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
P: O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and the messenger when He calleth you
to that which quickeneth you, and know that Allah cometh in between the
man and his own heart, and that He it is unto Whom ye will be gathered.
S: O you who believe! answer (the call of) Allah and His Messenger when
he calls you to that which gives you life; and know that Allah
intervenes between man and his heart, and that to Him you shall be
gathered.

Y: And fear tumult or oppression, which affecteth not in particular
(only) those of you who do wrong: and know that Allah is strict in
punishment.
P: And guard yourselves against a chastisement which cannot fall
exclusively on those of you who are wrong-doers, and know that Allah is
severe in punishment.

who are unjust; and know that Allah is severe in requiting (evil).

Y: Call to mind when ye were a small (band), despised through the land,
and afraid that men might despoil and kidnap you; But He provided a
safe asylum for you, strengthened you with His aid, and gave you Good
things for sustenance: that ye might be grateful.
P: And remember, when ye were few and reckoned feeble in the land, and
were in fear lest men should extirpate you, how He gave you refuge, and
strengthened you with His help, and made provision of good things for
you, that haply ye might be thankful.
S: And remember when you were few, deemed weak in the land, fearing lest
people might carry you off by force, but He sheltered you and
strengthened you with His aid and gave you of the good things that you
may give thanks.

nor misappropriate knowingly things entrusted to you.

be unfaithful to your trusts while you know.

and that it is Allah with Whom lies your highest reward.
P: And know that your possessions and your children are a test, and that
with Allah is immense reward.
S: And know that your property and your children are a temptation, and
that Allah is He with Whom there is a mighty reward.
008.029
Y: O ye who believe! if ye fear Allah, He will grant you a criterion (to
judge between right and wrong), remove from you (all) evil (that may
afflict) you, and forgive you: for Allah is the Lord of grace
unbounded.
P: O ye who believe! If ye keep your duty to Allah, He will give you
discrimination (between right and wrong) and will rid you of your evil
thoughts and deeds, and will forgive you. Allah is of Infinite Bounty.
S: O you who believe! If you are careful of (your duty to) Allah, He
will grant you a distinction and do away with your evils and forgive
you; and Allah is the Lord of mighty grace.
