Translations of Quran 59:16
EnglishTalal Itani

Like the devil, when he says to the human being, “Disbelieve.” But when he has disbelieved, he says, “I am innocent of you; I fear Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.”

EnglishPickthall, 1930

(And the hypocrites are) on the likeness of the devil when he telleth man to disbelieve, then, when he disbelieveth saith: Lo! I am quit of thee. Lo! I fear Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Tıbkı Şeytanın meseli gibi ki hani insana küfret dedi de küfredince ben dedi senden beriyim, çünkü ben âlemlerin rabbi olan Allahdan korkarım

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Ils agissent comme Satan, quand il dit à l’homme : Sois incrédule ; et lorsque l’homme devint incrédule, il s’écria : Je ne suis pour rien dans ce que tu fais, car je crains Dieu, maître de l’univers

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Zoo hebben de huichelaars de Joden bedrogen; gelijk de duivel, toen hij tot een mensch zeide: Wees een ongeloovige! En toen hij een ongeloovige was geworden, riep hij: Waarlijk, ik ben onschuldig aan u; want ik vrees God, den Heer van alle schepselen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Agiscono come Satana quando disse all’uomo: Sii incredulo, e quando l’uomo divenne incredulo, gridò: Io non sono in nulla in ciò che tu fai, giacchè io temo Dio padrone dell’universo.
