Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?
Siehst du nicht, wie dein Herr mit den Leuten des Elefanten verfuhr?
Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the Companions of the Elephant?
Chapter 105, 5 verses
Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?
Siehst du nicht, wie dein Herr mit den Leuten des Elefanten verfuhr?
Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the Companions of the Elephant?
Did He not cause their war to end in confusion,
Ließ Er nicht ihre List verlorengehen
Did He not make their treacherous plan go astray?
And send down (to prey) upon them birds in flocks,
und sandte gegen sie Vögel in aufeinanderfolgenden Schwärmen,
And He sent against them Flights of Birds,
Casting against them stones of baked clay,
die sie mit Steinen aus gebranntem Lehm bewarfen,
Striking them with stones of baked clay.
So He rendered them like straw eaten up?
und sie so wie abgefressene Halme machte?
Then did He make them like an empty field of stalks and straw, (of which the corn) has been eaten up.
