Surah Al-Baqarah (The Cow), verse 74 of 286 · Juz 1

ثُمَّ قَسَتْ قُلُوبُكُم مِّنۢ بَعْدِ ذَٰلِكَ فَهِىَ كَٱلْحِجَارَةِ أَوْ أَشَدُّ قَسْوَةً ۚ وَإِنَّ مِنَ ٱلْحِجَارَةِ لَمَا يَتَفَجَّرُ مِنْهُ ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ ۚ وَإِنَّ مِنْهَا لَمَا يَشَّقَّقُ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهُ ٱلْمَآءُ ۚ وَإِنَّ مِنْهَا لَمَا يَهْبِطُ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ ٱللَّهِ ۗ وَمَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَـٰفِلٍ عَمَّا تَعْمَلُونَ

Translations of Quran 2:74
EnglishTalal Itani

Then after that your hearts hardened. They were as rocks, or even harder. For there are some rocks from which rivers gush out, and others that splinter and water comes out from them, and others that sink in awe of Allah. Allah is not unaware of what you do.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Then, even after that, your hearts were hardened and became as rocks, or worse than rocks, for hardness. For indeed there are rocks from out which rivers gush, and indeed there are rocks which split asunder so that water floweth from them. And indeed there are rocks which fall down for the fear of Allah. Allah is not unaware of what ye do.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

sonra bunun arkasından kalbleriniz katılaştı, şimdi onlar taşlar gibi hattâ daha duygusuz, çünkü taşların öylesi var ki içinde nehirler kaynıyor, öylesi var ki çatlıyor da bağrından sular fışkırıyor ve öylesi var ki Allahın haşyetinden yerlerde yuvarlanıyor, sizler ise neler yapıyorsunuz Allah gafil değil

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Vos cœurs se sont endurcis depuis ; ils sont comme des rochers, et plus durs encore, car des rochers coulent des torrents ; les rochers se fendent et font jaillir l’eau ; il y en a qui s’affaissent par la crainte de Dieu, et certes Dieu n’est pas inattentif à vos actions.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Maar spoedig daarop werden uwe harten verhard; zij zijn als steenen en nog harder; want uit sommige steenen ontspringen bronnen, andere splijten en er vloeit water uit; andere zakken in elkander uit vreeze voor God; maar inderdaad, God is niet onbekend met uwe daden.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Ma i vostri cuori sono divenuti poi più duri; sono come scogli e più duri ancora, poichè gli scogli lasciano scorrere i torrenti, si aprono, e fanno scaturire le fontane; vi sono di coloro che si abbassano per timore di Dio, e certamente Dio osserva le vostre azioni.
