Translations of Quran 11:28
EnglishTalal Itani

He said, “O my people, have you considered? If I stand on clear evidence from my Lord, and He has given me a mercy from Himself, but you were blind to it, can we compel you to accept it, even though you dislike it?”

EnglishPickthall, 1930

He said: O my people! Bethink you, if I rely on a clear proof from my Lord and there hath come unto me a mercy from His presence, and it hath been made obscure to you, can we compel you to accept it when ye are averse thereto?

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Ey kavmim! dedi: söyleyin bakayım reyiniz nedir? Eğer ben rabbımdan (bir beyyine) açık bir bürhan üzerinde isem ve bana tarafından bir rahmet bahşetmiş de size onu görecek göz verilmemiş ise biz size onu istemediğiniz halde ilzam mı edeceğiz?

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

O mon peuple ! Reprit Noé, qu’en pensez-vous ? Si je ne fais que suivre la révélation de Dieu et la grâce qui me vient de lui, et que vous ne voyez pas, faut-il que je vous l’impose malgré vous ?

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Noach zeide: O mijn volk: zeg mij: Indien ik eene duidelijke verklaring van mijnen Heer heb ontvangen en hij mij zijne genade heeft geschonken, en deze voor u verborgen is, willen wij u die dan opdringen, terwijl gij er afkeerig van zijt?

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Popolo mio, rispose Noè, che ne pensate? Se io seguo la rivelazione di Dio, e la grazia che mi viene da lui, che voi non vedete, dovrò io imporvi di fare altrettanto malgrado voi?
