EnglishTalal Itani

Are you confident that He will not cause a tract of land to cave in beneath you, or unleash a tornado against you, and then you find no protector?

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Feel ye then secure that He will not cause a slope of the land to engulf you, or send a sand-storm upon you, and then ye will find that ye have no protector?

Ya çıktığınızda kara tarafında sizi yere geçirivermesinden veya üzerinize çakıllı bir rüzgâr salıvermesinden sonra da kendinize hiç vekîl bulamamanızdan emniyyete mi erdiniz?

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Êtes-vous sûrs qu’il ne vous fera pas engloutir par quelque partie de la terre s’entr’ouvrant sous vos pas, ou qu’il n’enverra pas contre vous un tourbillon qui vous ensevelira sous le sable, sans que vous puissiez alors trouver un protecteur ?

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Zijt gij dus zeker dat hij u niet door het droge land zal doen verzwelgen, of dat hij geen dwarrelwind tegen u zal zenden die het zand voortdrijft, ten einde u te overstelpen? Dan zult gij niemand vinden om u te beschermen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Siete voi sicuri che non vi farà ingojare da qualche parte della terra che s’aprirà sotto i vostri piedi, o che non manderà contro di voi un turbine che vi seppellirà sotto l’arena senza che possiate trovare allora un protettore?
