Quran 18:77
فَٱنطَلَقَا حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَتَيَآ أَهْلَ قَرْيَةٍ ٱسْتَطْعَمَآ أَهْلَهَا فَأَبَوْا۟ أَن يُضَيِّفُوهُمَا فَوَجَدَا فِيهَا جِدَارًا يُرِيدُ أَن يَنقَضَّ فَأَقَامَهُۥ ۖ قَالَ لَوْ شِئْتَ لَتَّخَذْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا

| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | Bunun üzerine yine gittiler, nihayet bir karyenin ehline vardılar ki bunları müsafir etmekten imtina ettiler, derken orada yıkılmak isteyen bir divar buldular, tuttu onu doğrultuverdi, isteseydin, dedi: her halde buna karşı bir ücret alırdın |
| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | Ils partirent, et ils marchèrent jusqu’à ce qu’ils fussent arrivés aux portes d’une ville. Ils demandèrent l’hospitalité aux habitants ; ceux-ci refusèrent de les recevoir. Les deux voyageurs s’aperçurent que le mur de la ville menaçait ruine. L’inconnu le releva. — Si tu avais voulu, lui dit Moïse, tu aurais pu te faire donner une récompense. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | Zij gingen dus verder, tot zij bij de inwoners van zekere stad kwamen, en zij vroegen die inwoners om voedsel; doch deze weigerde hen te ontvangen. En zij vonden daar een muur staan, die op het punt was van om te storten, en hij zette dien overeind. Daarop zeide Mozes tot hem: Indien gij hadt gewild, zoudt gij zeker eene belooning daarvoor hebben ontvangen. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | Partirono, e camminarono finch’arrivarono alle porte d’una città. Domandarono ospitalità agli abitanti; che ricusarono di riceverli. I due viaggiatori s’avvidero che il muro della città minacciava ruina. L’incognito lo riedificò. Se tu avessi voluto, gli disse Mosè, avresti potuto reclamarne una ricompensa. |
