Translations of Quran 3:120
EnglishTalal Itani

If something good happens to you, it upsets them; but if something bad befalls you, they rejoice at it. But if you persevere and maintain righteousness, their schemes will not harm you at all. Allah comprehends what they do.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

If a lucky chance befall you, it is evil unto them, and if disaster strike you they rejoice thereat. But if ye persevere and keep from evil their guile will never harm you. Lo! Allah is Surrounding what they do.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Size bir iyilik dokunursa fenalarına gider, başınıza bir musibet gelirse onunla ferahlanırlar, ve eğer siz sabırlı olur ve iyi korunursanız onların hıyleleri size hiç bir zarar vermez, çünkü Allah onları kendi amellerile kuşatmıştır.

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Le bien qui vous arrive les afflige ; qu’il vous arrive un malheur, ils sont remplis de joie. Mais si vous avez de la patience et là crainte de Dieu, leurs artifices ne pourront vous nuire, car Dieu embrasse de sa science toutes leurs actions.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Als het u goed gaat, zullen zij bedroefd zijn, en indien u een ongeluk overkomt, zijn zij van vreugde vervuld. Indien gij echter geduldig zijt en God vreest dan zullen hunne listen u niet schaden; want God weet wat zij doen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Se avete del bene ne sono afflitti, se vi accade una disgrazia ne sono pieni di contento; ma se avrete pazienza e timor di Dio, i loro artifizi non potranno nuocervi, poichè Iddio è padrone delle loro azioni.
