If you were to obey most of those on earth, they would divert you from Allah’s path. They follow nothing but assumptions, and they only conjecture.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

If thou obeyedst most of those on earth they would mislead thee far from Allah's way. They follow naught but an opinion, and they do but guess.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Yerdekilerin ekserisine uyarsan seni Allah yolundan saptırırlar, onlar sırf zann ardında gider ve sade atarlar.

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Si tu obéis au plus grand nombre de ceux qui habitent ce pays-ci, ils s’écarteront du sentier de Dieu ; ils ne suivent que des opinions et ne sont que des menteurs.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Maar indien gij het grootste deel gelooft van hen, die op de aarde zijn, zullen zij u van Gods weg afleiden; zij volgen slechts een onzeker gevoelen en spreken niets dan leugen.

Se tu segui il maggior numero di quei che abitano il paese, sarai allontanato dal sentiere di Dio. Essi non seguono che delle opinioni, e non sono che bugiardi.
