EnglishTalal Itani

Allah has now lightened your burden, knowing that there is weakness in you. If there are a hundred steadfast among you, they will defeat two hundred; and if there are a thousand of you, they will defeat two thousand by Allah’s leave. Allah is with the steadfast.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Now hath Allah lightened your burden, for He knoweth that there is weakness in you. So if there be of you a steadfast hundred they shall overcome two hundred, and if there be of you a thousand (steadfast) they shall overcome two thousand by permission of Allah. Allah is with the steadfast.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Şimdi Allah sizden yükü hafifletti ve bildi ki sizde bir za'f var, şimdi sizden sabredecek yüz kişi olursa iki yüze galebe ederler, sizden bin olursa Allahın izniyle iki bine galebe ederler, ve Allah sabredenlerledir

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Voilà que Dieu vous allège votre tache ; il sait combien vous êtes faibles. Cent hommes fermes d’entre vous vaincront deux cents ennemis, et mille triompheront de deux mille par la permission de Dieu, qui est avec les hommes fermes.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

God heeft uwe taak gemakkelijk gemaakt; want hij weet dat gij zwak waart. Indien er een honderd van u zijn die volharden, zullen zij twee honderd overwinnen, en indien er duizend van u zijn zullen zij tweeduizend overwinnen, door Gods verlof; want God is met hen die volharden.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Ma Dio vi alleggerirà il vostro lavoro, sa quanto siete deboli. Cento uomini di voi decisi vinceranno duecento nemici, è mille trionferanno di duemila col permesso di Dio che è cogl’intrepidi.
