Translations of Quran 18:15
EnglishTalal Itani

“These people, our people, have taken to themselves gods other than Him. Why do they not bring a clear proof concerning them? Who, then, does greater wrong than he who invents lies and attributes them to Allah?”

EnglishPickthall, 1930

These, our people, have chosen (other) gods beside Him though they bring no clear warrant (vouchsafed) to them. And who doth greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie concerning Allah?

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Şunlar şu bizim kavmimiz olacaklar, tuttular ondan başka ilâhlar edindiler, onlara karşı açık bir bürhan getirselerdi ya, artık bir yalanı Allaha iftira edenden daha zalim kim olabilir?

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Nos concitoyens adorent d’autres divinités que Dieu ; Peuvent-ils nous montrer une preuve évidente en faveur de leur culte ? Et qui est plus coupable que celui qui a forgé un mensonge sur le compte de Dieu ?

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Deze onze medeburgers hebben andere goden buiten hem gekozen, hoewel zij geen duidelijk bewijs voor hen aanvoeren; en wie is onrechtvaardiger dan hij, die eene leugen tegen God uitdenkt.

I nostri concittadini adorano altre divinità; possono essi mostrare alcuna prova evidente in favore del loro culto? Havvi mai più colpevole di chi ha fabbricato una bugia riguardo a Dio?
