die das Gebet verrichten und die Abgabe entrichten, und sie, die sie vom Jenseits überzeugt sind.
Shakir
As to those who do not believe in the hereafter, We have surely made their deeds fair - seeming to them, but they blindly wander on.

Dir wird der Qur'an wahrlich von Seiten eines Allweisen und Allwissenden zum Empfang überbracht.
Shakir
When Musa said to his family: Surely I see fire; I will bring to you from it some news, or I will bring to you therefrom a burning firebrand so that you may warm yourselves.
(Remember) when Musa (Moses) said to his household: "Verily I have seen a fire; I will bring you from there some information, or I will bring you a burning brand, that you may warm yourselves."

Als Musa zu seinen Angehörigen sagte: "Ich habe ein Feuer wahrgenommen. Ich werde euch davon eine Nachricht bringen, oder ich bringe euch einen Leuchtkörper, ein brennendes Stück Holz, auf daß ihr euch (daran) wärmen könnt."
Shakir
So when he came to it a voice was uttered saying: Blessed is Whoever is in the fire and whatever is about it; and glory be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds;
But when he came to it, he was called: "Blessed is whosoever is in the fire, and whosoever is round about it! And glorified be Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists).
Deutsch
Als er dort ankam, wurde ihm zugerufen: "Gesegnet ist wer im Feuer und wer in dessen Umgebung ist, und Preis sei Allah, dem Herrn der Weltenbewohner!
"O Musa (Moses)! Verily it is I, Allah, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

And cast down your staff. So when he saw it in motion as if it were a serpent, he turned back retreating and did not return: O Musa! fear not; surely the apostles shall not fear in My presence;
"And throw down your stick!" But when he saw it moving as if it were a snake, he turned in flight, and did not look back. (It was said:) "O Musa (Moses)! Fear not: verily the Messengers fear not in front of Me.
Deutsch
Und: "Wirf deinen Stock hin." Doch als er sah, daß er sich hin und her bewegte, als wäre er eine flinke Schlange, kehrte er den Rücken und wandte sich nicht mehr um. "O Musa, fürchte dich nicht, denn bei Mir brauchen sich die Gesandten nicht zu fürchten.

And enter your hand into the opening of your bosom, it shall come forth white without evil; among nine signs to Firon and his people, surely they are a transgressing people.
"And put your hand into your bosom, it will come forth white without hurt. (These are) among the nine signs (you will take) to Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his people. Verily they are a people who are Fasiqun (rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
Deutsch
Und stecke deine Hand in deinen Brustschlitz, so kommt sie weiß, jedoch nicht von Übel befallen, heraus. (Dies zählt) zu neun Zeichen, (gerichtet) an Fir'aun und sein Volk. Gewiß, sie sind ein Volk von Frevlern."

So when Our clear signs came to them, they said: This is clear enchantment.
And they belied them (those Ayat) wrongfully and arrogantly, though their ownselves were convinced thereof [i.e. those (Ayat ) are from Allah, and Musa (Moses) is the Messenger of Allah in truth, but they disliked to obey Musa (Moses), and hated to believe in his Message of Monotheism]. So see what was the end of the Mufsidun (disbelievers, disobedient to Allah, evil-doers and liars.).
Deutsch
Und sie verleugneten sie, obwohl sie selbst davon überzeugt waren, aus Ungerechtigkeit und Überheblichkeit. So schau, wie das Ende der Unheilstifter war.
Shakir
And certainly We gave knowledge to Dawood and Sulaiman, and they both said: Praise be to Allah, Who has made us to excel many of His believing servants.

Until when they came to the valley of the Naml, a Namlite said: O Naml! enter your houses, (that) Sulaiman and his hosts may not crush you while they do not know.
Till, when they came to the valley of the ants, one of the ants said: "O ants! Enter your dwellings, lest Sulaiman (Solomon) and his hosts should crush you, while they perceive not."

So he [Sulaiman (Solomon)] smiled, amused at her speech and said: "My Lord! Grant me the power and ability that I may be grateful for Your Favours which You have bestowed on me and on my parents, and that I may do righteous good deeds that will please You, and admit me by Your Mercy among Your righteous slaves."
Deutsch
Da lächelte er erheitert über ihre Worte und sagte: "Mein Herr, veranlasse mich, für Deine Gunst zu danken, die Du mir und meinen Eltern erwiesen hast, und rechtschaffen zu handeln, womit Du zufrieden bist. Und lasse mich durch Deine Barmherzigkeit eingehen in die Reihen Deiner rechtschaffenen Diener."
Shakir
And he reviewed the birds, then said: How is it I see not the hoopoe or is it that he is of the absentees?
"I will surely punish him with a severe torment, or slaughter him, unless he brings me a clear reason."
Deutsch
Ich werde ihn ganz gewiß strengstens strafen, oder ich werde ihn ganz gewiß hinrichten (lassen)', es sei denn, er bringt mir fürwahr eine deutliche Ermächtigung."
Shakir
And he tarried not long, then said: I comprehend that which you do not comprehend and I have brought to you a sure information from Sheba.

Deutsch
Ich habe herausgefunden, daß sie und ihr Volk sich vor der Sonne niederwerfen, anstatt vor Allah. Und der Satan hat ihnen ihre Taten ausgeschmückt und sie dann vom Weg abgehalten, so daß sie nicht rechtgeleitet sind,
Shakir
That they do not make obeisance to Allah, Who brings forth what is hidden in the heavens and the earth and knows what you hide and what you make manifest:
[As Shaitan (Satan) has barred them from Allah's Way] so they do not worship (prostrate themselves before) Allah, Who brings to light what is hidden in the heavens and the earth, and knows what you conceal and what you reveal. [Tafsir At-Tabari]
Deutsch
(dies), damit sie sich nicht vor Allah niederwerfen, Der das Versteckte in den Himmeln und auf der Erde herausbringt und weiß, was ihr verbergt, und was ihr offenlegt.

Go back to them, so we will most certainly come to them with hosts which they shall have no power to oppose, and we will most certainly expel them therefrom in abasement, and they shall be in a state of ignominy.
[Then Sulaiman (Solomon) said to the chief of her messengers who brought the present]: "Go back to them. We verily shall come to them with hosts that they cannot resist, and we shall drive them out from there in disgrace, and they will be abased."

Shakir
One who had the knowledge of the Book said: I will bring it to you in the twinkling of an eye. Then when he saw it settled beside him, he said: This is of the grace of my Lord that He may try me whether I am grateful or ungrateful; and whoever is grateful, he is grateful only for his own soul, and whoever is ungrateful, then surely my Lord is Self - sufficient, Honored.
One with whom was knowledge of the Scripture said: "I will bring it to you within the twinkling of an eye!" Then when he [Sulaiman (Solomon)] saw it placed before him, he said: "This is by the Grace of my Lord - to test me whether I am grateful or ungrateful! And whoever is grateful, truly, his gratitude is for (the good of) his ownself; and whoever is ungrateful, (he is ungrateful only for the loss of his ownself). Certainly my Lord is Rich (Free of all needs), Bountiful."

Derjenige, der Wissen aus der Schrift hatte, sagte: "Ich bringe ihn dir, bevor dein Blick zu dir zurückkehrt." Als er ihn unbeweglich bei sich stehen sah, sagte er: "Dies ist von der Huld meines Herrn, damit Er mich prüft, ob ich dankbar oder undankbar bin. Wer dankbar ist, der ist nur zu seinem eigenen Vorteil dankbar; wer aber undankbar ist - so ist mein Herr unbedürftig und freigebig."
Shakir
He said: Alter her throne for her, we will see whether she follows the right way or is of those who do not go aright.
