Translations of Quran 35:39
EnglishTalal Itani

It is He who made you successors on earth. Whoever disbelieves, his disbelief will recoil upon him. The disbelief of the disbelievers adds only to their Lord’s disfavor of them. The disbelief of the disbelievers adds only to their perdition.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

He it is Who hath made you regents in the earth; so he who disbelieveth, his disbelief be on his own head. Their disbelief increaseth for the disbelievers, in their Lord's sight, naught save abhorrence. Their disbelief increaseth for the disbelievers naught save loss.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

O ki sizleri Yer yüzünde halîfeler kıldı, o halde kim küfrederse küfrü kendi aleyhinedir. Kâfirlere küfürleri rablarının kıtında buğzdan başka bir şey artırmaz kâfirlere küfürleri hasardan başka bir şey artırmaz

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

C’est lui qui vous constitue ses lieutenants sur la terre : quiconque ne croit pas portera la charge de son incrédulité ; elle ne fera qu’accroître la haine de Dieu contre les infidèles, elle ne fera que mettre le comble à leur ruine.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Hij is het, die u heeft gemaakt, om de plaats op de aarde te bekleeden. Wie ongeloovig zal wezen, op dien drukke zijn ongeloof, en hun ongeloof zal voor de ongeloovigen slechts nog meer verontwaardiging in de oogen des Heeren doen ontstaan, en hun ongeloof zal hunne verdoeming slechts vermeerderen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Egli vi costituisce suoi incaricati sulla terra; chi non crede porterà il peso della sua incredulità; essa non farà che crescere l’odio di Dio contro gl’infedeli, non farà che mettere il colmo alla loro ruina.
