Quran 2:266
أَيَوَدُّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَن تَكُونَ لَهُۥ جَنَّةٌ مِّن نَّخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَابٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ لَهُۥ فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ وَأَصَابَهُ ٱلْكِبَرُ وَلَهُۥ ذُرِّيَّةٌ ضُعَفَآءُ فَأَصَابَهَآ إِعْصَارٌ فِيهِ نَارٌ فَٱحْتَرَقَتْ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمُ ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَفَكَّرُونَ
| EnglishTalal Itani | Would any one of you like to have a garden of palms and vines, under which rivers flow—with all kinds of fruit in it for him, and old age has stricken him, and he has weak children—then a tornado with fire batters it, and it burns down? Thus Allah makes clear the signs for you, so that you may reflect. |

| EnglishPickthall, 1930 | Would any of you like to have a garden of palm-trees and vines, with rivers flowing underneath it, with all kinds of fruit for him therein; and old age hath stricken him and he hath feeble offspring; and a fiery whirlwind striketh it and it is (all) consumed by fire. Thus Allah maketh plain His revelations unto you, in order that ye may give thought. |
| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | Arzu eder mi hiç biriniz ki kendisinin hurmalık ve üzümlüklerden bir bağçesi, olsun, altından çaylar akıyor, içinde her türlü mahsulâtı bulunuyor, üstüne de ıhtiyarlık çökmüş ve elleri irmez, gücleri yetmez bir takım zürriyyeti var, derken ona ateşli bir bora isabet ediversin de o bağçe yanıversin? İşte Allah âyetlerini böyle anlatıyor gerek ki düşünesiniz |
| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | Quelqu’un de vous voudrait-il avoir un jardin planté de palmiers et de vignes, arrosé par des courants d’eau, riche en toute espèce de fruits, et qu’au milieu de ces jouissances la vieillesse le surprenne, qu’il ait des enfants en bas âge ; et qu’un tourbillon gros de flammes consume ce jardin ? C’est ainsi que Dieu vous explique ses enseignements ; peut-être les méditerez-vous. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | Begeert een uwer een tuin te hebben met palmboomen en wijnstokken, door beken besproeid, waarin alle soorten van vruchten voorkomen; dat door hem een hooge ouderdom worde bereikt; dat hij kinderen hebbe die hem gelijk zijn, en dat een vreeselijke storm met vlammen dien tuin verwoeste? Zoo verklaart God u zijne teekens, opdat gij zoudt nadenken. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | Alcuno di voi vorrebb’egli avere un giardino piantato di palme e viti bagnato da acque correnti, ricco di ogni specie di frutti, e in mezzo a questi godimenti divenire subito vecchio, lasciare dei figli nella fanciullezza, e che un grosso turbine di fiamme consumasse questo giardino? Così Dio spiega i suoi insegnamenti; forse li mediterete. |
