Translations of Quran 8:65
EnglishTalal Itani

O Prophet! Rouse the believers to battle. If there are twenty steadfast among you, they will defeat two hundred; and if there are a hundred of you, they will defeat a thousand of those who disbelieve; because they are a people who do not understand.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

O Prophet! Exhort the believers to fight. If there be of you twenty steadfast they shall overcome two hundred, and if there be of you a hundred (steadfast) they shall overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve, because they (the disbelievers) are a folk without intelligence.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Ey o Peygamber! Mü'minleri cihade teşvik eyle, eğer sizden sabredecek yirmi kişi olursa ikiyüze galebe ederler ve eğer sizden yüz kişi olursa o küfredenlerden birine galebe ederler, çünkü onlar hakkı ve akıbeti iyi idrâk etmez fıkıhsız bir kavmdirler

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

O prophète ! Excite les croyants au combat. Vingt hommes fermes d’entre eux terrasseront deux cents infidèles. Cent en mettront mille en fuite, parce que les infidèles ne comprennent rien.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

O profeet! zet de geloovigen tot oorlog aan; indien twintig uwer volhardend zijn, zullen zij twee honderd overwinnen, en indien er een honderd van u zijn, zullen zij duizend overwinnen van degenen die niet gelooven, daar zij een volk zijn dat niet begrijpt.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

O profeta! eccita i credenti a combattere. Venti uomini di loro intrepidi atterreranno duecento infedeli. Cento ne faranno fuggire mille perchè gl’infedeli sono senza saviezza.
