Quran 3:14
زُيِّنَ لِلنَّاسِ حُبُّ ٱلشَّهَوَٰتِ مِنَ ٱلنِّسَآءِ وَٱلْبَنِينَ وَٱلْقَنَـٰطِيرِ ٱلْمُقَنطَرَةِ مِنَ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلْخَيْلِ ٱلْمُسَوَّمَةِ وَٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ وَٱلْحَرْثِ ۗ ذَٰلِكَ مَتَـٰعُ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا ۖ وَٱللَّهُ عِندَهُۥ حُسْنُ ٱلْمَـَٔابِ
| EnglishTalal Itani | Adorned for the people is the love of desires, such as women, and children, and piles upon piles of gold and silver, and branded horses, and livestock, and fields. These are the conveniences of the worldly life, but with Allah lies the finest resort. |

| EnglishPickthall, 1930 | Beautified for mankind is love of the joys (that come) from women and offspring; and stored-up heaps of gold and silver, and horses branded (with their mark), and cattle and land. That is comfort of the life of the world. Allah! With Him is a more excellent abode. |
| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | İnsanlara: Kadınlar, oğullar, yüklerle altun ve gümüş yığınları, salma atlar, davarlar, ekinler kabilinden şehevat sevgisi bezendi; fakat bunlar Dünya hayatın geçici metâ'ı, halbuki Allah, akıbet güzelliği onun yanındadır. |
| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | L’amour des plaisirs, tels que les femmes, les enfants, les trésors entassés d’or et d’argent, les chevaux portant des marques imprimées, les troupeaux, les campagnes, tout cela paraît beau aux hommes, mais ce ne sont que des jouissances temporaires de ce monde ; mais la belle retraite est auprès de Dieu. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | Den menschen werd prikkel en begeerte tot vrouwen, kinderen, goud en zilver, edele paarden, kudden en akkers ingeplant; dit zijn allen slechts de genietingen van dit leven, doch de schoonste terugkeer is die tot God. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | L’amore dei piaceri, come le mogli, i figli, i tesori sotterrati di oro e di argento, i cavalli superbi, i bestiami, e le campagne, tutto ciò pare bello agli uomini. ma non sono che godimenti temporarj di questo mondo; il ritiro delizioso è vicino a Dio. |
