مَّثَلُ ٱلْجَنَّةِ ٱلَّتِى وُعِدَ ٱلْمُتَّقُونَ ۖ فِيهَآ أَنْهَـٰرٌ مِّن مَّآءٍ غَيْرِ ءَاسِنٍ وَأَنْهَـٰرٌ مِّن لَّبَنٍ لَّمْ يَتَغَيَّرْ طَعْمُهُۥ وَأَنْهَـٰرٌ مِّنْ خَمْرٍ لَّذَّةٍ لِّلشَّـٰرِبِينَ وَأَنْهَـٰرٌ مِّنْ عَسَلٍ مُّصَفًّى ۖ وَلَهُمْ فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ وَمَغْفِرَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِمْ ۖ كَمَنْ هُوَ خَـٰلِدٌ فِى ٱلنَّارِ وَسُقُوا۟ مَآءً حَمِيمًا فَقَطَّعَ أَمْعَآءَهُمْ

Translations of Quran 47:15
EnglishTalal Itani

The likeness of the Garden promised to the righteous: in it are rivers of pure water, and rivers of milk forever fresh, and rivers of wine delightful to the drinkers, and rivers of strained honey. And therein they will have of every fruit, and forgiveness from their Lord. Like one abiding in the Fire forever, and are given to drink boiling water, that cuts up their bowels?

EnglishPickthall, 1930

A similitude of the Garden which those who keep their duty (to Allah) are promised: Therein are rivers of water unpolluted, and rivers of milk whereof the flavour changeth not, and rivers of wine delicious to the drinkers, and rivers of clear-run honey; therein for them is every kind of fruit, with pardon from their Lord. (Are those who enjoy all this) like those who are immortal in the Fire and are given boiling water to drink so that it teareth their bowels?

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Korunanlara va'dolunan Cennetin temsili: onda ırmaklar var bir sudan ki bozulması yok, ırmaklar var bir südden ki tadı değişmez, ırmaklar var bir şarabdanki içenlere lezzet, ırmaklar var bir baldan ki safi süzme, hem onlara semerelerini (hasılâtın) her türlüsünden var, hem de Rablarından bir mağfiret var, hiç bunlar o ateşte muhalled olan ve kaynar bir mayı'den sulanıp da bağırsaklarını parçalamakta bulunan kimselere benzer mi?

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Voici le tableau du paradis qui a été promis aux hommes pieux : des ruisseaux dont l’eau ne se gâte jamais, des ruisseaux de lait dont le goût ne s’altérera jamais, des ruisseaux de vin, délices de ceux qui en boiront. Des ruisseaux de miel pur, toutes sortes de fruits, et le pardon des péchés. En sera-t-il ainsi de celui qui, condamné au séjour du feu, sera abreuvé d’une eau bouillante qui lui déchirera les entrailles ?

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Dit is de beschrijving van het paradijs, dat den vromen is beloofd, daarin zijn rivieren van water dat niet kan bederven, en rivieren van melk, welker smaak nooit verandert, en rivieren van wijn, behaaglijk voor hen, die er van drinken. En rivieren van gezuiverden honing, en daar zullen zij overvloed van alle soorten van vruchten hebben en vergiffenis van hunnen Heer vinden. Zal de mensch voor wien deze dingen zijn toebereid, evenals hij wezen, die voor altijd in het hellevuur moet wonen, en die met kokend water zal gelescht worden, dat hem de ingewanden zal verscheuren?

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Ecco il quadro del paradiso promesso agli uomini pii: fiumi di acqua che non si corrompe mai, fiumi di latte il di cui gusto non si altera mai, fiumi di vino dolce a berlo, Fiumi di miele puro, ogni sorta di frutta, ed il perdono dei peccati. Sarà egli così di chi, condannato a stare nel fuoco, sarà abbeverato con un’acqua bollente che gli straccerà i visceri.
