Shakir

Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?

Pickthall

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Hast thou not seen how thy Lord dealt with the owners of the Elephant ?

Shakir

Did He not cause their war to end in confusion,

Pickthall

Did He not bring their stratagem to naught,

Shakir

And send down (to prey) upon them birds in flocks,

Pickthall

And send against them swarms of flying creatures,

Shakir

Casting against them stones of baked clay,

Pickthall

Which pelted them with stones of baked clay,

Shakir

So He rendered them like straw eaten up?

Pickthall

And made them like green crops devoured (by cattle) ?
