Translations of Quran 31:29
EnglishTalal Itani

Have you not seen how Allah merges the night into the day, and merges the day into the night? That He subjected the sun and the moon, each running for a stated term? And that Allah is Cognizant of everything you do?

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Hast thou not seen how Allah causeth the night to pass into the day and causeth the day to pass into the night, and hath subdued the sun and the moon (to do their work), each running unto an appointed term; and that Allah is Informed of what ye do?

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Görmedin mi? Allah geceyi gündüze sokuyor, gündüzü geceye sokuyor ve Şems-ü Kameri teshır etmiş hepsi müsemmâ bir ecele doğru cereyan ediyor ve filvakı' Allah, bütün yaptıklarınıza habîrdir

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Ne vois-tu pas que Dieu fait entrer le jour dans la nuit et la nuit dans le jour ? Il vous a assujetti le soleil et la lune ; l’un et l’autre poursuivent leur cours jusqu’au terme marqué. Dieu est instruit de tout ce que vous faites.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Ziet gij niet, dat God den dag door den nacht doet vervangen, en den dag aan den nacht doet opvolgen, en de zon en de maan dwingt u te dienen? Ieder dezer lichten legt zijne baan gedurende een bepaald tijdvak af, en God is wel bekend met hetgeen gij doet.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Non vedi che Dio fa entrare il giorno nella notte e la notte nel giorno? Vi ha soggettati il sole, e la luna; l’uno e l’altra seguono il loro corso fino all’epoca stabilita. Dio sa tutto ciò che fate.
