And how many a generation have We destroyed before them! Do you see any one of them or hear a sound of them?

Yusuf Ali

But how many (countless) generations before them have We destroyed? Canst thou find a single one of them (now) or hear (so much as) a whisper of them?

Deutsch

Und wie viele Geschlechter haben Wir vor ihnen vernichtet! Nimmst du noch irgend jemanden von ihnen wahr, oder hörst du von ihnen noch den geringsten Laut?
