Translations of Quran 40:56
EnglishTalal Itani

Those who dispute regarding Allah’s revelations without any authority having come to them—there is nothing in their hearts but the feeling of greatness, which they will never attain. So seek refuge in Allah; for He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Lo! those who wrangle concerning the revelations of Allah without a warrant having come unto them, there is naught else in their breasts save pride which they will never attain. So take thou refuge in Allah. Lo! He, only He, is the Hearer, the Seer.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Kendilerine gelmiş kat'î bir bürhan olmaksızın Allahın âyetlerinde mücadele edenler muhakkak ki onların sîynelerinde ancak yetişemiyecekleri bir kibir vardır sen hemen Allaha sığın, çünkü o, semî odur, basîr o

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Ceux qui disputent au sujet des signes de Dieu sans avoir reçu aucun argument à l’appui, qu’ont-ils dans leurs cœurs, si ce n’est l’orgueil ? Mais ils n’atteindront point leur but. Toi, Mohammed, cherche ton refuge auprès de Dieu, car il entend et voit tout

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Wat hen betreft, die de teekenen van God bestrijden, zonder dat hun een overtuigend bewijs werd geopenbaard, er is slechts trotschheid in hunne borsten; doch zij zullen hun verlangen niet verkrijgen; vlucht dus tot God, als een toevluchtsoord; want hij hoort en ziet alles.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Quei che disputano sui miracoli di Dio senz’avere ricevuto alcun argomento in appoggio, che cosa han mai nel loro cuore, se non orgoglio? Ma non giungeranno al loro scopo. Tu (o Maometto) cerca refugio presso Dio, poichè egli sente e vede tutto.
