Quran 16:61
وَلَوْ يُؤَاخِذُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلنَّاسَ بِظُلْمِهِم مَّا تَرَكَ عَلَيْهَا مِن دَآبَّةٍ وَلَـٰكِن يُؤَخِّرُهُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى ۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَجَلُهُمْ لَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ سَاعَةً ۖ وَلَا يَسْتَقْدِمُونَ
| EnglishTalal Itani | If Allah were to hold mankind for their injustices, He would not leave upon it a single creature, but He postpones them until an appointed time. Then, when their time arrives, they will not delay it by one hour, nor will they advance it. |

| EnglishPickthall, 1930 | If Allah were to take mankind to task for their wrong-doing, he would not leave hereon a living creature, but He reprieveth them to an appointed term, and when their term cometh they cannot put (it) off an hour nor (yet) advance (it). |
| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | Maamafih Allah insanları zulümleriyle muahaze ediverse idi Yer yüzünde bir deprenen bırakmazdı, velâkin onları mukadder bir ecele kadar te'hır eder, ecelleri geldiği vakıt da bir saat ne geriletebilirler, ne öne geçebilirler |
| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | Si Dieu voulait châtier les hommes de leur perversité, il ne laisserait aucune créature vivante sur la terre ; mais il leur accorde un délai jusqu’au terme marqué. Lorsque le terme sera arrivé, ils ne sauront ni le retarder ni l’avancer d’un seul instant. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | Indien God de menschen voor hunne onrechtvaardigheid zou straffen, zou hij geen levend wezen op aarde laten; maar hij geeft hen uitstel tot een bepaalden tijd; en als hun tijd zal gekomen zijn, zullen zij geen uur uitstel ontvangen, en hunne straf zal ook niet vervroegd worden. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | Se Dio volesse gastigare gli uomini della loro perversità, non lascerebbe in vita alcuna creatura sulla terra; ma invece accorda una dilazione fino al tempo fissato. Allorchè questo tempo sarà giunto, non sapranno nè ritardarlo nè anticiparlo di un solo istante. |
