Wir berichten dir die schönsten Geschichten dadurch, daß Wir dir diesen Qur'an (als Offenbarung) eingegeben haben, obgleich du zuvor wahrlich zu den Unachtsamen gehörtest.
Pickthall
We narrate unto thee (Muhammad) the best of narratives in that We have inspired in thee this Qur'an, though aforetime thou wast of the heedless.
Yusuf Ali
We do relate unto thee the most beautiful of stories, in that We reveal to thee this (portion of the) Qur'an: before this, thou too was among those who knew it not.
Als Yusuf zu seinem Vater sagte: "O mein Vater, ich sah elf Sterne und die Sonne und den Mond, ich sah sie sich vor mir niederwerfen."
Pickthall
When Joseph said unto his father: O my father! Lo! I saw in a dream eleven planets and the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating themselves unto me.
Yusuf Ali
Behold! Joseph said to his father: "O my father! I did see eleven stars and the sun and the moon: I saw them prostrate themselves to me!"
Er sagt: "O mein lieber Sohn, erzähle dein (Traum)gesicht nicht deinen Brüdern, sonst werden sie eine List gegen dich schmieden. Gewiß, der Satan ist dem Menschen ein deutlicher Feind.
Pickthall
He said: O my dear son! Tell not thy brethren of thy vision, lest they plot a plot against thee. Lo! Satan is for man an open foe.
Yusuf Ali
Said (the father): "My (dear) little son! relate not thy vision to thy brothers, lest they concoct a plot against thee: for Satan is to man an avowed enemy!
Und so wird dein Herr dich erwählen und dich etwas von der Deutung der Geschichten lehren und Seine Gunst an dir und an der Sippe Ya'qubs vollenden, wie Er sie zuvor an deinen beiden Vätern Ibrahim und lshaq vollendet hat. Gewiß, dein Herr ist Allwissend und Allweise."
Pickthall
Thus thy Lord will prefer thee and will teach thee the interpretation of events, and will perfect His grace upon thee and upon the family of Jacob as He perfected it upon thy forefathers, Abraham and Isaac. Lo! thy Lord is Knower, Wise.
Yusuf Ali
"Thus will thy Lord choose thee and teach thee the interpretation of stories (and events) and perfect His favour to thee and to the posterity of Jacob - even as He perfected it to thy fathers Abraham and Isaac aforetime! for Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom."
Als sie sagten: "Wahrlich, Yusuf und sein Bruder sind unserem Vater lieber als wir, obwohl wir eine (ansehnliche) Schar sind. Unser Vater befindet sich fürwahr in deutlichem Irrtum.
Pickthall
When they said: Verily Joseph and his brother are dearer to our father than we are, many though we be. Lo! our father is in plain aberration.
Yusuf Ali
They said: "Truly Joseph and his brother are loved more by our father than we: But we are a goodly body! really our father is obviously wandering (in his mind)!
Tötet Yusuf oder werft ihn ins Land hinaus, so wird das Gesicht eures Vaters sich nur noch euch zuwenden, und danach werdet ihr rechtschaffene Leute sein."
Pickthall
(One said): Kill Joseph or cast him to some (other) land, so that your father's favour may be all for you, and (that) ye may afterward be righteous folk.
Yusuf Ali
"Slay ye Joseph or cast him out to some (unknown) land, that so the favour of your father may be given to you alone: (there will be time enough) for you to be righteous after that!"
Einer von ihnen sagte: "Tötet Yusuf nicht, sondern werft ihn in die verborgene Tiefe des Brunnenlochs, so werden ihn schon einige der Reisenden auflesen, wenn ihr doch etwas tun wollt."
Pickthall
One among them said: Kill not Joseph but, if ye must be doing, fling him into the depth of the pit; some caravan will find him.
Yusuf Ali
Said one of them: "Slay not Joseph, but if ye must do something, throw him down to the bottom of the well: he will be picked up by some caravan of travellers."
Als sie ihn mitnahmen und sich geeinigt hatten, ihn in die verborgene Tiefe des Brunnenlochs zu stecken, gaben Wir ihm ein: "Du wirst ihnen ganz gewiß noch diese ihre Tat kundtun, ohne daß sie merken."
Pickthall
Then, when they led him off, and were of one mind that they should place him in the depth of the pit, We inspired in him: Thou wilt tell them of this deed of theirs when they know (thee) not.
Yusuf Ali
So they did take him away, and they all agreed to throw him down to the bottom of the well: and We put into his heart (this Message): 'Of a surety thou shalt (one day) tell them the truth of this their affair while they know (thee) not'
And they came weeping to their father in the evening.
Yusuf Ali
Then they came to their father in the early part of the night, weeping.
Word by word
وَجَآءُوٓ أَبَاهُمْ عِشَآءً يَبْكُونَ
Deutsch
Sie sagten: "O unser Vater, wir gingen, um einen Wettlauf zu machen, und ließen Yusuf bei unseren Sachen zurück. Da fraß ihn der Wolf. Aber du glaubst uns wohl nicht, auch wenn wir die Wahrheit sagen."
Pickthall
Saying: O our father! We went racing one with another, and left Joseph by our things, and the wolf devoured him, and thou believest not our saying even when we speak the truth.
Yusuf Ali
They said: "O our father! We went racing with one another, and left Joseph with our things; and the wolf devoured him.... But thou wilt never believe us even though we tell the truth."
Sie brachten falsches Blut auf seinem Hemd. Er sagte: "Nein! Vielmehr habt ihr selbst euch etwas eingeredet. (So gilt es,) schöne Geduld (zu üben). Allah ist Derjenige, bei Dem Hilfe zu suchen ist gegen das, was ihr beschreibt."
Pickthall
And they came with false blood on his shirt. He said: Nay, but your minds have beguiled you into something. (My course is) comely patience. And Allah it is Whose help is to be sought in that (predicament) which ye describe.
Yusuf Ali
They stained his shirt with false blood. He said: "Nay, but your minds have made up a tale (that may pass) with you, (for me) patience is most fitting: Against that which ye assert, it is Allah (alone) Whose help can be sought"..
Reisende kamen vorbei. Sie sandten ihren Wasserschöpfer, und er ließ seinen Eimer hinunter. Er sagte: "O frohe Botschaft! Da ist ein Junge." Sie verbargen ihn als Ware. Und Allah wußte wohl, was sie taten.
Pickthall
And there came a caravan, and they sent their waterdrawer. He let down his pail (into the pit). He said: Good luck! Here is a youth. And they hid him as a treasure, and Allah was Aware of what they did.
Yusuf Ali
Then there came a caravan of travellers: they sent their water - carrier (for water), and he let down his bucket (into the well)... He said: "Ah there! Good news! Here is a (fine) young man!" So they concealed him as a treasure! But Allah knoweth well all that they do!
Und derjenige aus Ägypten, der ihn gekauft hatte, sagte zu seiner Frau: "Bereite ihm einen gastfreundlichen Aufenthalt. Vielleicht wird er uns nützlich sein, oder nehmen wir ihn als Kind an." So verliehen Wir Yusuf eine feste Stellung im Land. Und Wir wollten ihn etwas von der Deutung der Geschichten lehren. Und Allah ist in Seiner Angelegenheit überlegen. Aber die meisten Menschen wissen nicht.
Pickthall
And he of Egypt who purchased him said unto his wife: Receive him honourably. Perchance he may prove useful to us or we may adopt him as a son. Thus we established Joseph in the land that We might teach him the interpretation of events. And Allah was predominant in His career, but most of mankind know not.
Yusuf Ali
The man in Egypt who bought him, said to his wife: "Make his stay (among us) honourable: may be he will bring us much good, or we shall adopt him as a son." Thus did We establish Joseph in the land, that We might teach him the interpretation of stories (and events). And Allah hath full power and control over His affairs; but most among mankind know it not.
Und diejenige, in deren Haus er war, versuchte, ihn zu verführen'. Sie schloß die Türen ab und sagte: "Da bin ich für dich!" Er sagte: "Allah schütze mich (davor)! Er, mein Herr, hat mir einen schönen Aufenthalt bereitet. Gewiß, den Ungerechten wird es nicht wohl ergehen."
Pickthall
And she, in whose house he was, asked of him an evil act. She bolted the doors and said: Come! He said: I seek refuge in Allah! Lo! he is my lord, who hath treated me honourably. Lo! wrong - doers never prosper.
Yusuf Ali
But she in whose house he was, sought to seduce him from his (true) self: she fastened the doors, and said: "Now come, thou (dear one)!" He said: "Allah forbid! truly (thy husband) is my lord! he made my sojourn agreeable! truly to no good come those who do wrong!"
Es verlangte sie nach ihm, und es hätte ihn nach ihr verlangt, wenn er nicht den Beweis seines Herrn gesehen hätte. Dies (geschah), damit Wir das Böse und das Schändliche von ihm abwendeten. Er gehört ja zu Unseren auserlesenen Dienern.
Pickthall
She verily desired him, and he would have desired her if it had not been that he saw the argument of his Lord. Thus it was, that We might ward off from him evil and lewdness. Lo! he was of Our chosen slaves.
Yusuf Ali
And (with passion) did she desire him, and he would have desired her, but that he saw the evidence of his Lord: thus (did We order) that We might turn away from him (all) evil and shameful deeds: for he was one of Our servants, sincere and purified.
Sie versuchten beide als erster zur Tür zu gelangen. Sie zerriß ihm von hinten das Hemd. Und sie fanden ihren Herrn bei der Tür vor. Sie sagte: "Der Lohn dessen, der deiner Familie Böses (antun) wollte, ist nur, daß er ins Gefängnis gesteckt wird, oder schmerzhafte Strafe."
Pickthall
And they raced with one another to the door, and she tore his shirt from behind, and they met her lord and master at the door. She said: What shall be his reward, who wisheth evil to thy folk, save prison or a painful doom ?
Yusuf Ali
So they both raced each other to the door, and she tore his shirt from the back: they both found her lord near the door. She said: "What is the (fitting) punishment for one who formed an evil design against thy wife, but prison or a grievous chastisement?"
Er sagte: "Sie war es, die versucht hat, mich zu verführen." Und ein Zeuge aus ihrer Familie bezeugte: "Wenn sein Hemd vorn zerrissen ist, dann hat sie die Wahrheit gesprochen, und er gehört zu den Lügnern.
Pickthall
(Joseph) said: She it was who asked of me an evil act. And a witness of her own folk testified: If his shirt is torn from before, then she speaketh truth and he is of the liars.
Yusuf Ali
He said: "It was she that sought to seduce me - from my (true) self." And one of her household saw (this) and bore witness, (thus): - "If it be that his shirt is rent from the front, then is her tale true, and he is a liar!
(Einige) Frauen in der Stadt sagten: "Die Frau des hohen Herrn versucht, ihren Burschen zu verführen. Er hat sie in leidenschaftliche Liebe versetzt. Wir sehen wahrlich, sie befindet sich in deutlichem Irrtum."
Pickthall
And women in the city said: The ruler's wife is asking of her slave - boy an ill - deed. Indeed he has smitten her to the heart with love. We behold her in plain aberration.
Yusuf Ali
Ladies said in the City: "The wife of the (great) 'Aziz is seeking to seduce her slave from his (true) self: Truly hath he inspired her with violent love: we see she is evidently going astray."
Als sie nun von ihren Ränken hörte, sandte sie zu ihnen und bereitete ihnen ein Gastmahl'. Sie gab einer jeden von ihnen ein Messer und sagte (zu Yusuf): "Komm zu ihnen heraus." Als sie ihn sahen, fanden sie ihn groß(artig), und sie zerschnitten sich ihre Hände und sagten: "Allah behüte! Das ist kein Mensch, das ist nur ein ehrenvoller Engel."
Pickthall
And when she heard of their sly talk, she sent to them and prepared for them a cushioned couch (to lie on at the feast) and gave to every one of them a knife and said (to Joseph): Come out unto them! And when they saw him they exalted him and cut their hands, exclaiming: Allah Blameless! This is no a human being. This is not other than some gracious angel.
Yusuf Ali
When she heard of their malicious talk, she sent for them and prepared a banquet for them: she gave each of them a knife: and she said (to Joseph), "Come out before them." When they saw him, they did extol him, and (in their amazement) cut their hands: they said, "Allah preserve us! no mortal is this! this is none other than a noble angel!"
Sie sagte: "Seht, das ist der, dessentwegen ihr mich getadelt habt. Ich habe allerdings versucht, ihn zu verführen, doch er widerstand. Und wenn er nicht tut, was ich ihm befehle, wird er ganz gewiß ins Gefängnis gesteckt werden, und er wird gewiß zu den Geringgeachteten gehören."
Pickthall
She said: This is he on whose account ye blamed me. I asked of him an evil act, but he proved continent, but if he do not my behest he verily shall be imprisoned, and verily shall be of those brought low.
Yusuf Ali
She said: "There before you is the man about whom ye did blame me! I did seek to seduce him from his (true) self but he did firmly save himself guiltless!.... and now, if he doth not my bidding, he shall certainly be cast into prison, and (what is more) be of the company of the vilest!"
Er sagte: "Mein Herr, das Gefängnis ist mir lieber als das, wozu sie mich auffordern. Und wenn Du ihre List von mir nicht abwendest, werde ich mich zu ihnen hingezogen fühlen und zu den Toren gehören."
Pickthall
He said: O my Lord! Prison is more dear than that unto which they urge me, and if Thou fend not off their wiles from me I shall incline unto them and become of the foolish.
Yusuf Ali
He said: "O my Lord! the prison is more to my liking than that to which they invite me: Unless Thou turn away their snare from me, I should (in my youthful folly) feel inclined towards them and join the ranks of the ignorant."
Mit ihm kamen zwei Burschen ins Gefängnis. Der eine von ihnen sagte: "Ich sah mich Wein auspressen." Der andere sagte: "Ich sah mich auf dem Kopf Brot tragen, von dem die Vögel fraßen. Tue uns die Deutung hiervon kund. Wir sehen, daß du zu den Gutes Tuenden gehörst."
Pickthall
And two young men went to prison with him. One of them said: I dreamed that I was pressing wine. The other said: I dreamed that I was carrying upon my head bread whereof the birds were eating. Announce unto us the interpretation, for we see thee of those good (at interpretation).
Yusuf Ali
Now with him there came into the prison two young men. Said one of them: "I see myself (in a dream) pressing wine." said the other: "I see myself (in a dream) carrying bread on my head, and birds are eating, thereof.""Tell us" (they said) "The truth and meaning thereof: for we see thou art one that doth good (to all)."
Er sagte: "Es wird euch kein Essen gebracht, mit dem ihr versorgt werdet, ohne daß ich euch die Deutung davon kundgetan habe, bevor es euch gebracht wird. Seht, das ist etwas von dem, was mich mein Herr gelehrt hat. Verlassen habe ich das Glaubensbekenntnis von Leuten, die nicht an Allah glauben, und (verlassen habe, ich) sie, die sie das Jenseits verleugnen,
Pickthall
He said: The food which ye are given (daily) shall not come unto you but I shall tell you the interpretation ere it cometh unto you. This is of that which my Lord hath taught me. Lo! I have forsaken the religion of folk who believe not in Allah and are disbelievers in the Hereafter.
Yusuf Ali
He said: "Before any food comes (in due course) to feed either of you, I will surely reveal to you the truth and meaning of this ere it befall you: that is part of the (duty) which my Lord hath taught me. I have (I assure you) abandoned the ways of a people that believe not in Allah and that (even) deny the Hereafter.
und ich bin dem Glaubensbekenntnis meiner Väter Ibrahim, Ishaq und Ya'qub gefolgt. Es steht uns nicht zu, Allah etwas beizugesellen. Das ist etwas von Allahs Huld gegen uns und gegen die Menschen. Aber die meisten Menschen sind nicht dankbar.
Pickthall
And I have followed the religion of my fathers, Abraham and Isaac and Jacob. It never was for us to attribute aught as partner to Allah. This is of the bounty of Allah unto us (the seed of Abraham) and unto mankind; but most men give not thanks.
Yusuf Ali
"And I follow the ways of my fathers, - Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and never could we attribute any partners whatever to Allah: that (comes) of the grace of Allah to us and to mankind: yet most men are not grateful.
Ihr dient außer Ihm nur Namen, die ihr genannt habt, ihr und eure Väter, für die Allah (jedoch) keine Ermächtigung herabgesandt hat. Das Urteil ist allein Allahs. Er hat befohlen, daß ihr nur Ihm dienen sollt. Das ist die richtige Religion. Aber die meisten Menschen wissen nicht.
Pickthall
Those whom ye worship beside Him are but names which ye have named, ye and your fathers. Allah hath revealed no sanction for them. The decision rests with Allah only, Who hath commanded you that ye worship none save Him. This is the right religion, but most men know not.
Yusuf Ali
"If not Him, ye worship nothing but names which ye have named, - ye and your fathers, - for which Allah hath sent down no authority: the command is for none but Allah: He hath commanded that ye worship none but Him: that is the right religion, but most men understand not...
O meine beiden Gefangnisgefährten! Was den einen von euch angeht, so wird er seinem Herrn Wein zu trinken geben. Was aber den anderen angeht, so wird er gekreuzigt, und die Vögel werden von seinem Kopf fressen. Entschieden ist die Angelegenheit, über die ihr um Auskunft fragt."
Pickthall
O my two fellow - prisoners! As for one of you, he will pour out wine for his lord to drink; and as for the other, he will be crucified so that the birds will eat from his head. Thus is the case judged concerning which ye did inquire.
Yusuf Ali
"O my two companions of the prison! As to one of you, he will pour out the wine for his lord to drink: as for the other, he will hang from the cross, and the birds will eat from off his head. (so) hath been decreed that matter whereof ye twain do enquire"...
Und er sagte zu dem von beiden, von dem er glaubte, daß er entkommen werde: "Erwähne mich bei deinem Herrn." Aber der Satan ließ ihn vergessen, ihn bei seinem Herrn zu erwähnen, (und) so blieb er noch einige Jahre im Gefängnis.
Pickthall
And he said unto him of the twain who he knew would be released: Mention me in the presence of thy lord. But Satan caused him to forget to mention it to his lord, so he (Joseph) stayed in prison for some years.
Yusuf Ali
And of the two, to that one whom he consider about to be saved, he said: "Mention me to thy lord." But Satan made him forget to mention him to his lord: and (Joseph) lingered in prison a few (more) years.
Und der König sagte: "Ich sah sieben fette Kühe, die von sieben mageren gefressen wurden, und sieben grüne Ähren und (sieben) andere dürre. O ihr führende Schar, gebt mir Auskunft über mein (Traum)gesicht, wenn ihr ein (Traum)gesicht auslegen könnt."
Pickthall
And the king said: Lo! I saw in a dream seven fat kine which seven lean were eating, and seven green ears of corn and other (seven) dry. O notables! Expound for me my vision, if ye can interpret dreams.
Yusuf Ali
The king (of Egypt) said: "I do see (in a vision) seven fat kine, whom seven lean ones devour, and seven green ears of corn, and seven (others) withered. O ye chiefs! Expound to me my vision if it be that ye can interpret visions."
Derjenige von beiden, der entkommen war und sich nach einiger Zeit erinnerte, sagte: "Ich werde euch seine Deutung kundtun. Darum entsendet mich."
Pickthall
And he of the two who was released, and (now) at length remembered, said: I am going to announce unto you the interpretation, therefore send me forth.
Yusuf Ali
But the man who had been released, one of the two (who had been in prison) and who now bethought him after (so long) a space of time, said: "I will tell you the truth of its interpretation: send ye me (therefore)."
Yusuf, du Wahrhaftiger, gib uns Auskunft über sieben fette Kühe, die von sieben mageren gefressen werden, und über sieben grüne Ähren und (sieben) andere dürre, auf daß ich zu den Leuten zurückkehre, auf daß sie wissen mögen.
Pickthall
(And when he came to Joseph in the prison, he exclaimed): Joseph! O thou truthful one! Expound for us the seven fat kine which seven lean were eating and the seven green ears of corn and other (seven) dry, that I may return unto the people, so that they may know.
Yusuf Ali
"O Joseph!" (he said) "O man of truth! Expound to us (the dream) of seven fat kine whom seven lean ones devour, and of seven green ears of corn and (seven) others withered: that I may return to the people, and that they may understand."
Er sagte: "Ihr werdet unablässig sieben Jahre wie gewohnt säen. Was ihr erntet, das laßt in seinen Ähren, bis auf ein weniges, wovon ihr eßt.
Pickthall
He said: Ye shall sow seven years as usual, but that which ye reap, leave it in the ear, all save a little which ye eat.
Yusuf Ali
(Joseph) said: "For seven years shall ye diligently sow as is your wont: and the harvests that ye reap, ye shall leave them in the ear, - except a little, of which ye shall eat.
Hierauf werden nach alledem sieben harte (Jahre) kommen, die das aufzehren werden, was ihr für sie vorbereitet habt, bis auf ein weniges von dem, was ihr aufbewahrt.
Pickthall
Then after that will come seven hard years which will devour all that ye have prepared for them, save a little of that which ye have stored.
Yusuf Ali
"Then will come after that (period) seven dreadful (years), which will devour what ye shall have laid by in advance for them, - (all) except a little which ye shall have (specially) guarded.
Der König sagte: "Bringt ihn zu mir." Als der Bote zu ihm kam, sagte er: "Kehr zu deinem Herrn zurück und frag ihn, wie es mit den Frauen steht, die sich ihre Hände zerschnitten. Mein Herr weiß doch über ihre List Bescheid."
Pickthall
And the king said: Bring him unto me. And when the messenger came unto him, he (Joseph) said: Return unto thy lord and ask him what was the case of the women who cut their hands. Lo! my Lord knoweth their guile.
Yusuf Ali
So the king said: "Bring ye him unto me." But when the messenger came to him, (Joseph) said: "Go thou back to thy lord, and ask him, 'What is the state of mind of the ladies who cut their hands'? For my Lord is certainly well aware of their snare."
Er sagte: "Was war da mit euch, als ihr versuchtet, Yusuf zu verführen?" Sie sagten: "Allah behüte! Wir wissen nichts Böses gegen ihn (anzugeben)." Die Frau des hohen Herrn sagte: "Jetzt ist die Wahrheil ans Licht gekommen. Ich habe versucht, ihn zu verführen. Und er gehört fürwahr zu den Wahrhaftigen.
Pickthall
He (the king) (then sent for those women and) said: What happened when ye asked an evil act of Joseph ? They answered: Allah Blameless! We know no evil of him. Said the wife of the ruler: Now the truth is out. I asked of him an evil act, and he is surely of the truthful.
Yusuf Ali
(The king) said (to the ladies): "What was your affair when ye did seek to seduce Joseph from his (true) self?" The ladies said: "Allah preserve us! no evil know we against him!" Said the 'Aziz's wife: "Now is the truth manifest (to all): it was I who sought to seduce him from his (true) self: He is indeed of those who are (ever) true (and virtuous).
Dies ist, damit er weiß, daß ich ihn nicht in seiner Abwesenheit verraten habe und daß Allah die List der Verräter nicht gelingen läßt.
Pickthall
(Then Joseph said: I asked for) this, that he (my lord) may know that I betrayed him not in secret, and that surely Allah guideth not the snare of the betrayers.
Yusuf Ali
"This (say I), in order that He may know that I have never been false to him in his absence, and that Allah will never guide the snare of the false ones.
Und ich spreche mich nicht selbst frei. Die Seele gebietet fürwahr mit Nachdruck das Böse, außer daß mein Herr Sich erbarmt. Mein Herr ist Allvergebend und Barmherzig."
Pickthall
I do not exculpate myself. Lo! the (human) soul enjoineth unto evil, save that whereon my Lord hath mercy. Lo! my Lord is Forgiving, Merciful.
Yusuf Ali
"Nor do I absolve my own self (of blame): the (human) soul is certainly prone to evil, unless my Lord do bestow His Mercy: but surely my Lord is Oft - forgiving, Most Merciful."
Und der König sagte: "Bringt ihn zu mir. Ich will ihn mir selbst vorbehalten." Als er mit ihm sprach, sagte er: "Du bist (von) heute (an) bei uns in fester Stellung und vertrauenswürdig."
Pickthall
And the king said: Bring him unto me that I may attach him to my person. And when he had talked with him he said: Lo! thou art to - day in our presence established and trusted.
Yusuf Ali
So the king said: "Bring him unto me; I will take him specially to serve about my own person." Therefore when he had spoken to him, he said: "Be assured this day, thou art, before our own presence, with rank firmly established, and fidelity fully proved!
So verliehen Wir Yusuf eine feste Stellung im Land, so daß er sich darin aufhalten konnte, wo immer er wollte. Wir treffen mit Unserer Barmherzigkeit, wen Wir wollen, und Wir lassen den Lohn der Gutes Tuenden nicht verlorengehen.
Pickthall
Thus gave We power to Joseph in the land. He was the owner of it where he pleased. We reach with Our mercy whom We will. We lose not the reward of the good.
Yusuf Ali
Thus did We give established power to Joseph in the land, to take possession therein as, when, or where he pleased. We bestow of our Mercy on whom We please, and We suffer not, to be lost, the reward of those who do good.
Als er sie nun mit ihrem Bedarf ausgestattet hatte, sagte er: "Bringt mir einen (Halb)bruder von euch väterlicherseits. Seht ihr denn nicht, daß ich volles Maß gebe und daß ich der beste Obdachgeber bin?
Pickthall
And when he provided them with their provision he said: Bring unto me a brother of yours from your father. See ye not that I fill up the measure and I am the best of hosts ?
Yusuf Ali
And when he had furnished them forth with provisions (suitable) for them, he said: "Bring unto me a brother ye have, of the same father as yourselves, (but a different mother): see ye not that I pay out full measure, and that I do provide the best hospitality?
Und er sagte zu seinen Burschen: "Steckt ihre (Tausch)ware (zurück) in ihr Gepäck, so daß sie sie (wieder)erkennen, wenn sie zu ihren Angehörigen zurückgekehrt sind, auf daß sie wiederkommen mögen."
Pickthall
He said unto his young men: Place their merchandise in their saddlebags, so that they may know it when they go back to their folk, and so will come again.
Yusuf Ali
And (Joseph) told his servants to put their stock - in - trade (with which they had bartered) into their saddle - bags, so they should know it only when they returned to their people, in order that they might come back.
Als sie zu ihrem Vater zurückkamen, sagten sie: "O unser Vater, ein (weiteres) Maß ist uns verweigert worden. Darum lasse unseren Bruder mit uns gehen, so bekommen wir ein (weiteres) Maß zugeteilt; wir werden ihn fürwahr behüten."
Pickthall
So when they went back to their father they said: O our father! The measure is denied us, so send with us our brother that we may obtain the measure, surely we will guard him well.
Yusuf Ali
Now when they returned to their father, they said: "O our father! No more measure of grain shall we get (unless we take our brother): So send our brother with us, that we may get our measure; and we will indeed take every care of him."
Er sagte: "Kann ich ihn euch etwa anders anvertrauen, als ich euch zuvor seinen Bruder anvertraut habe? Allah ist besser als Behütender, und Er ist der Barmherzigste der Barmherzigen."
Pickthall
He said: Can I entrust him to you save as I entrusted his brother to you aforetime ? Allah is better at guarding, and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy.
Yusuf Ali
He said: "Shall I trust you with him with any result other than when I trusted you with his brother aforetime? But Allah is the best to take care (of him), and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy!"
Und als sie ihre Sachen öffneten, fanden sie, daß ihre Ware ihnen zurückgegeben worden war. Sie sagten: "O unser Vater, was begehren wir (mehr)? Das ist unsere Ware, sie ist uns zurückgegeben worden. Wir werden Vorrat für unsere Angehörigen bringen, unseren Bruder behüten und das Maß (der Last) eines Kamels mehr haben. Das ist ein leicht(erhältlich)es Maß."
Pickthall
And when they opened their belongings they discovered that their merchandise had been returned to them. They said: O our father! What (more) can we ask ? Here is our merchandise returned to us. We shall get provision for our folk and guard our brother, and we shall have the extra measure of a camel (load). This (that we bring now) is a light measure.
Yusuf Ali
Then when they opened their baggage, they found their stock - in - trade had been returned to them. They said: "O our father! What (more) can we desire? this our stock - in - trade has been returned to us: so we shall get (more) food for our family; We shall take care of our brother; and add (at the same time) a full camel's load (of grain to our provisions). This is but a small quantity.
Er sagte: "Ich werde ihn nicht mit euch senden, bis ihr mir ein verbindliches Versprechen vor Allah gebt, daß ihr ihn mir ganz gewiß wiederbringt, es sei denn, ihr werdet umringt." Als sie ihm ihr verbindliches Versprechen gegeben hatten, sagte er: "Allah ist Sachwalter über das, was wir (hier) sagen."
Pickthall
He said: I will not send him with you till ye give me an undertaking in the name of Allah that ye will bring him back to me, unless ye are surrounded. And when they gave him their undertaking he said: Allah is the Warden over what we say.
Yusuf Ali
(Jacob) said: "Never will I send him with you until ye swear a solemn oath to me, in Allah's name, that ye will be sure to bring him back to me unless ye are yourselves hemmed in (and made powerless). And when they had sworn their solemn oath, he said: "Over all that we say, be Allah the witness and guardian!"
Und er sagte: "O meine Kinder, geht nicht (alle) durch ein einziges Tor hinein, sondern geht durch verschiedene Tore hinein. Ich kann euch gegen Allah nichts nützen. Das Urteil ist allein Allahs. Auf Ihn verlasse ich mich; und auf Ihn sollen sich diejenigen verlassen, die sich (überhaupt auf jemanden) verlassen (wollen)."
Pickthall
And he said: O my sons! Go not in by one gate; go in by different gates. I can naught avail you as against Allah. Lo! the decision rests with Allah only. In Him do I put my trust, and in Him let all the trusting put their trust.
Yusuf Ali
Further he said: "O my sons! enter not all by one gate: enter ye by different gates. Not that I can profit you aught against Allah (with my advice): None can command except Allah: On Him do I put my trust: and let all that trust put their trust on Him."
Als sie hineingingen, wie ihr Vater ihnen befohlen hatte, konnte es ihnen vor Allah nichts nützen. (Es war) nur ein Bedürfnis in der Seele Ya'qubs, das er (damit) erfüllte. Und er besaß fürwahr Wissen, weil Wir es ihn gelehrt hatten. Aber die meisten Menschen wissen nicht.
Pickthall
And when they entered in the manner which their father had enjoined, it would have naught availed them as against Allah; it was but a need of Jacob's soul which he thus satisfied; and lo! he was a lord of knowledge because We had taught him; but most of mankind know not.
Yusuf Ali
And when they entered in the manner their father had enjoined, it did not profit them in the least against (the plan of) Allah: It was but a necessity of Jacob's soul, which he discharged. For he was, by our instruction, full of knowledge (and experience): but most men know not.
Als sie bei Yusuf eintraten, zog er seinen Bruder zu sich. Er sagte: "Gewiß, ich bin dein Bruder. So sei nicht bekümmert wegen dessen, was sie getan haben."
Pickthall
And when they went in before Joseph, he took his brother unto him, saying: Lo! I, even I, am thy brother, therefore sorrow not for what they did.
Yusuf Ali
Now when they came into Joseph's presence, he received his (full) brother to stay with him. He said (to him): "Behold! I am thy (own) brother; so grieve not at aught of their doings."
Als er sie nun mit ihrem Bedarf ausgestattet hatte, steckte er das Trinkgefäß in das Gepäck seines Bruders. Hierauf rief ein Rufer aus: "Ihr (da, von der) Karawane, ihr seid fürwahr Diebe."
Pickthall
And when he provided them with their provision, he put the drinking - cup in his brother's saddlebag, and then a crier cried: O camel - riders! Lo! ye are surely thieves!
Yusuf Ali
At length when he had furnished them forth with provisions (suitable) for them, he put the drinking cup into his brother's saddle - bag. Then shouted out a crier: "O ye (in) the caravan! behold! ye are thieves, without doubt!"
Sie (die Brüder) sagten: "Die Vergeltung dafür soll sein, daß derjenige, in dessen Gepäck er gefunden wird, selbst das Entgelt dafür sein soll. So vergelten wir den Ungerechten."
Pickthall
They said: The penalty for it! He in whose bag (the cup) is found, he is the penalty for it. Thus we requite wrong - doers.
Yusuf Ali
They said: "The penalty should be that he in whose saddle - bag it is found, should be held (as bondman) to atone for the (crime). Thus it is we punish the wrong - doers!"
Er begann (zu suchen) in ihren Behältern vor dem Behälter seines Bruders. Hierauf holte er es aus dem Behälter seines Bruders hervor. So führten Wir für Yusuf eine List aus. Nach dem Gesetz des Königs hätte es ihm nicht zugestanden, seinen Bruder (als Sklaven) zu nehmen, außer daß Allah es wollte. Wir erhöhen, wen Wir wollen, um Rangstufen. Und über jedem, der Wissen besitzt, steht einer, der (noch mehr) weiß.
Pickthall
Then he (Joseph) began the search with their bags before his brother's bag, then he produced it from his brother's bag. Thus did We contrive for Joseph. He could not have taken his brother according to the king's law unless Allah willed. We raise by grades (of mercy) whom We will, and over every lord of knowledge there is one more knowing.
Yusuf Ali
So he began (the search) with their baggage, before (he came to) the baggage of his brother: at length he brought it out of his brother's baggage. Thus did We plan for Joseph. He could not take his brother by the law of the king except that Allah willed it (so). We raise to degrees (of wisdom) whom We please: but over all endued with knowledge is one, the All - Knowing.
Sie sagten: "Wenn er stiehlt, so hat ein Bruder von ihm schon zuvor gestohlen." Aber Yusuf hielt es in seinem Innersten geheim und legte es ihnen nicht offen. Er sagte: "Ihr befindet euch in einer (noch) schlechteren Lage. Und Allah weiß sehr wohl, was ihr beschreibt."
Pickthall
They said: If he stealeth, a brother of his stole before. But Joseph kept it secret in his soul and revealed it not unto them. He said (within himself): Ye are in worse case, and Allah knoweth best (the truth of) that which ye allege.
Yusuf Ali
They said: "If he steals, there was a brother of his who did steal before (him)." But these things did Joseph keep locked in his heart, revealing not the secrets to them. He (simply) said (to himself): "Ye are the worse situated; and Allah knoweth best the truth of what ye assert!"
Sie sagten: "O hoher Herr, er hat einen Vater, einen hochbetagten Greis. So nimm einen von uns an seiner Stelle. Wir sehen, daß du zu den Gutes Tuenden gehörst."
Pickthall
They said: O ruler of the land! Lo! he hath a very aged father, so take one of us instead of him. Lo! we behold thee of those who do kindness.
Yusuf Ali
They said: "O exalted one! Behold! he has a father, aged and venerable, (who will grieve for him); so take one of us in his place; for we see that thou art (gracious) in doing good."
Er sagte: "Allah schütze uns (davor), daß wir einen anderen nehmen als denjenigen, bei dem wir unsere Sachen gefunden haben! Wir würden sonst wahrlich zu den Ungerechten gehören."
Pickthall
He said: Allah forbid that we should seize save him with whom we found our property; then truly we should be wrong - doers.
Yusuf Ali
He said: "Allah forbid that we take other than him with whom we found our property: indeed (if we did so), we should be acting wrongfully.
Als sie die Hoffnung an ihm aufgegeben hatten, zogen sie sich zurück zu einem vertraulichen Gespräch. Der Älteste von ihnen sagte: "Wißt ihr (denn) nicht, daß euer Vater von euch ein verbindliches Versprechen vor Allah entgegengenommen hat und daß ihr zuvor (eure Pflicht) gegenüber Yusuf vernachlässigt habt? Ich werde das Land nicht verlassen, bis mein Vater es mir erlaubt oder Allah ein Urteil für mich fällt. Er ist der Beste derer, die Urteile fällen.
Pickthall
So, When they despaired of (moving) him, they conferred together apart. The eldest of them said: Know ye not how your father took an undertaking from you in Allah's name and how ye failed in the case of Joseph aforetime ? Therefore I shall not go forth from the land until my father giveth leave or Allah judgeth for me. He is the Best of Judges.
Yusuf Ali
Now when they saw no hope of his (yielding), they held a conference in private. The leader among them said: "Know ye not that your father did take an oath from you in Allah's name, and how, before this, ye did fail in your duty with Joseph? Therefore will I not leave this land until my father permits me, or Allah commands me; and He is the best to command.
Kehrt zu eurem Vater zurück und sagt: ,O unser Vater, dein Sohn hat gestohlen, und wir bezeugen nur das, was wir wissen, und wir sind nicht Hüter über das Verborgene.
Pickthall
Return unto your father and say: O our father! Lo! thy son hath stolen. We testify only to that which we know; we are not guardians of the Unseen.
Yusuf Ali
"Turn ye back to your father, and say, 'O our father! behold! thy son committed theft! we bear witness only to what we know, and we could not well guard against the unseen!
Er sagte: "Nein! Vielmehr habt ihr selbst euch etwas eingeredet. (Es gilt) schöne Geduld (zu üben). Aber vielleicht wird Allah sie mir alle wiederbringen. Er ist ja der Allwissende und Allweise."
Pickthall
(And when they came unto their father and had spoken thus to him) he said: Nay, but your minds have beguiled you into something. (My course is) comely patience! It may be that Allah will bring them all unto me. Lo! He, only He, is the Knower, the Wise.
Yusuf Ali
Jacob said: "Nay, but ye have yourselves contrived a story (good enough) for you. So patience is most fitting (for me). Maybe Allah will bring them (back) all to me (in the end). For He is indeed full of knowledge and wisdom."
O meine Kinder, geht und erkundigt euch über Yusuf und seinen Bruder. Und gebt nicht die Hoffnung auf das Erbarmen Allahs auf. Es gibt die Hoffnung auf das Erbarmen Allahs nur das ungläubige Volk auf."
Pickthall
Go, O my sons, and ascertain concerning Joseph and his brother, and despair not of the Spirit of Allah. Lo! none despaireth of the Spirit of Allah save disbelieving folk.
Yusuf Ali
"O my sons! go ye and enquire about Joseph and his brother, and never give up hope of Allah's Soothing Mercy: truly no one despairs of Allah's Soothing Mercy, except those who have no faith."
Als sie (wieder) bei ihm eintraten, sagten sie: "O hoher Herr, Unheil ist uns und unseren Angehörigen widerfahren. Und wir haben (nur) Ware von geringem Wert gebracht. So gib uns (dennoch) volles Maß und gib (es) uns als Almosen. Allah vergilt denjenigen, die Almosen geben."
Pickthall
And when they came (again) before him (Joseph) they said: O ruler! Misfortune hath touched us and our folk, and we bring but poor merchandise, so fill for us the measure and be charitable unto us. Lo! Allah will requite the charitable,
Yusuf Ali
Then, when they came (back) into (Joseph's) presence they said: "O exalted one! distress has seized us and our family: we have (now) brought but scanty capital: so pay us full measure, (we pray thee), and treat it as charity to us: for Allah doth reward the charitable."
Sie sagten: "Bist du denn wirklich Yusuf?" Er sagte: "Ich bin Yusuf, und das ist mein Bruder. Allah hat uns eine Wohltat erwiesen. Gewiß, wer gottesfürchtig und standhaft ist -- gewiß, Allah läßt den Lohn der Gutes Tuenden nicht verlorenge hen."
Pickthall
They said: Is it indeed thou who art Joseph ? He said: I am Joseph and this is my brother. Allah hath shown us favour. Lo! he who wardeth off (evil) and endureth (findeth favour); for lo! Allah loseth not the wages of the kindly.
Yusuf Ali
They said: "Art thou indeed Joseph?" He said, "I am Joseph, and this is my brother: Allah has indeed been gracious to us (all): behold, he that is righteous and patient, - never will Allah suffer the reward to be lost, of those who do right."
Geht mit diesem meinem Hemd und legt es auf das Gesicht meines Vaters, so wird er sein Augenlicht (wieder)erlangen. Und bringt eure Angehörigen allesamt zu mir."
Pickthall
Go with this shirt of mine and lay it on my father's face, he will become (again) a seer; and come to me with all your folk.
Yusuf Ali
"Go with this my shirt, and cast it over the face of my father: he will come to see (clearly). Then come ye (here) to me together with all your family."
Als nun die Karawane aufgebrochen war, sagte ihr Vater: "Wahrlich, ich nehme Yusufs Geruch war. Wenn ihr mich nur nicht bezichtigen würdet, Unsinn zu reden!"
Pickthall
When the caravan departed their father had said: Truly I am conscious of the breath of Joseph, though ye call me dotard.
Yusuf Ali
When the caravan left (Egypt), their father said: "I do indeed scent the presence of Joseph: Nay, think me not a dotard."
Als nun der Frohbote kam, legte er es auf sein Gesicht, und da hatte er sein Augenlicht wiedererlangt. Er sagte: "Habe ich euch nicht gesagt, daß ich von Allah her weiß, was ihr nicht wißt?"
Pickthall
Then, when the bearer of glad tidings came, he laid it on his face and he became a seer once more. He said: Said I not unto you that I know from Allah that which ye know not ?
Yusuf Ali
Then when the bearer of the good news came, He cast (the shirt) over his face, and he forthwith regained clear sight. He said: "Did I not say to you, 'I know from Allah that which ye know not?'"
Als sie nun bei Yusuf eintraten, zog er seine Eltern an sich und sagte: "Betretet Ägypten, wenn Allah will, in Sicherheit."
Pickthall
And when they came in before Joseph, he took his parents unto him, and said: Come into Egypt safe, if Allah will!
Yusuf Ali
Then when they entered the presence of Joseph, he provided a home for his parents with himself, and said: "Enter ye Egypt (all) in safety if it please Allah."
Und er hob seine Eltern auf den Thron empor. Und sie fielen vor ihm ehrerbietig nieder. Er sagte: "O mein lieber Vater, das ist die Deutung meines (Traum)gesichts von zuvor. Mein Herr hat es wahrgemacht. Und Er hat mir Gutes erwiesen, als Er mich aus dem Gefängnis herauskommen ließ und euch aus dem nomadischen Leben hierherbrachte, nachdem der Satan zwischen mir und meinen Brüdern (zu Zwietracht) aufgestachelt hatte. Gewiß, mein Herr ist feinfühlig (in der Durchführung dessen), was Er will. Er ist ja der Allwissende und Allweise.
Pickthall
And he placed his parents on the dais and they fell down before him prostrate, and he said: O my father! This is the interpretation of my dream of old. My Lord hath made it true, and He hath shown me kindness, since He took me out of the prison and hath brought you from the desert after Satan had made strife between me and my brethren. Lo! my Lord is tender unto whom He will. He is the Knower, the Wise.
Yusuf Ali
And he raised his parents high on the throne (of dignity), and they fell down in prostration, (all) before him. He said: "O my father! this is the fulfilment of my vision of old! Allah hath made it come true! He was indeed good to me when He took me out of prison and brought you (all here) out of the desert, (even) after Satan had sown enmity between me and my brothers. Verily my Lord understandeth best the mysteries of all that He planneth to do, for verily He is full of knowledge and wisdom.
Mein Herr, Du hast mir etwas von der Herrschaft gegeben und mich etwas von der Deutung der Sprüche gelehrt. (O Du) Erschaffer der Himmel und der Erde, Du bist mein Schutzherr im Diesseits und Jenseits. Berufe mich als (Dir) ergeben ab und nimm mich unter die Rechtschaffenen auf."
Pickthall
O my Lord! Thou hast given me (something) of sovereignty and hast taught me (something) of the interpretation of events - Creator of the heavens and the earth! Thou art my Protecting Guardian in the world and the Hereafter. Make me to die muslim (unto Thee), and join me to the righteous.
Yusuf Ali
"O my Lord! Thou hast indeed bestowed on me some power, and taught me something of the interpretation of dreams and events, - O Thou Creator of the heavens and the earth! Thou art my Protector in this world and in the Hereafter. Take Thou my soul (at death) as one submitting to Thy will (as a Muslim), and unite me with the righteous."
Dies gehört zu den Nachrichten vom Verborgenen, das Wir dir (als Offenbarung) eingeben. Denn du warst nicht bei ihnen, als sie sich einigten, indem sie Ränke schmiedeten.
Pickthall
This is of the tidings of the Unseen which We inspire in thee (Muhammad). Thou wast not present with them when they fixed their plan and they were scheming.
Yusuf Ali
Such is one of the stories of what happened unseen, which We reveal by inspiration unto thee; nor wast thou (present) with them then when they concerted their plans together in the process of weaving their plots.
Glauben sie denn, sicher zu sein davor, daß eine überdeckende Strafe von Allah über sie kommt oder daß plötzlich die Stunde über sie kommt, ohne daß sie merken?
Pickthall
Deem they themselves secure from the coming on them of a pall of Allah's punishment, or the coming of the Hour suddenly while they are unaware ?
Yusuf Ali
Do they then feel secure from the coming against them of the covering veil of the wrath of Allah, - or of the coming against them of the (final) Hour all of a sudden while they perceive not?
Sag: Das ist mein Weg: Ich rufe zu Allah aufgrund eines sichtbaren Hinweises, ich und diejenigen, die mir folgen. Preis sei Allah! Und ich gehöre nicht zu den Götzendienern.
Pickthall
Say: This is my Way: I call on Allah with sure knowledge. I and whosoever followeth me - Glory be to Allah! - and I am not of the idolaters.
Yusuf Ali
Say thou: "This is my way: I do invite unto Allah, - on evidence clear as the seeing with one's eyes, - I and whoever follows me. Glory to Allah! and never will I join gods with Allah!"
Und Wir haben vor dir nur Männer gesandt von den Bewohnern der Städte, denen Wir (Offenbarungen) eingaben. Sind sie denn nicht auf der Erde umhergereist, so daß sie schauen (konnten), wie das Ende derjenigen war, die vor ihnen waren? Die Wohnstätte des Jenseits ist wahrlich besser für diejenigen, die gottesfürchtig sind. Begreift ihr denn nicht?
Pickthall
We sent not before thee (any messengers) save men whom We inspired from among the folk of the townships - Have they not travelled in the land and seen the nature of the consequence for those who were before them ? And verily the abode of the Hereafter, for those who ward off (evil), is best. Have ye then no sense ? -
Yusuf Ali
Nor did We send before thee (as messengers) any but men, whom we did inspire, - (men) living in human habitations. Do they not travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those before them? But the home of the hereafter is best, for those who do right. Will ye not then understand?
Erst dann, als die Gesandten die Hoffnung aufgegeben hatten und sie meinten, daß sie belogen worden seien, kam Unsere Hilfe zu ihnen. Und so wird errettet, wen Wir wollen. Aber vom übeltätigen Volk wird Unsere Gewalt nicht abgewandt.
Pickthall
Till, when the messengers despaired and thought that they were denied, then came unto them Our help, and whom We would was saved. And Our wrath cannot be warded from the guilty.
Yusuf Ali
(Respite will be granted) until, when the messengers give up hope (of their people) and (come to) think that they were treated as liars, there reaches them Our help, and those whom We will are delivered into safety. But never will be warded off our punishment from those who are in sin.
In ihren Geschichten ist wahrlich eine Lehre für diejenigen, die Verstand besitzen. Es ist keine Aussage, die ersonnen wird, sondern die Bestätigung dessen, was vor ihm war, und die ausführliche Darlegung aller Dinge und eine Rechtleitung und Barmherzigkeit für Leute, die glauben.
Pickthall
In their history verily there is a lesson for men of understanding. It is no invented story but a confirmation of the existing (Scripture) and a detailed explanation of everything, and a guidance and a mercy for folk who believe.
Yusuf Ali
There is, in their stories, instruction for men endued with understanding. It is not a tale invented, but a confirmation of what went before it, - a detailed exposition of all things, and a guide and a mercy to any such as believe.
