Quran 27:40
قَالَ ٱلَّذِى عِندَهُۥ عِلْمٌ مِّنَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ أَنَا۠ ءَاتِيكَ بِهِۦ قَبْلَ أَن يَرْتَدَّ إِلَيْكَ طَرْفُكَ ۚ فَلَمَّا رَءَاهُ مُسْتَقِرًّا عِندَهُۥ قَالَ هَـٰذَا مِن فَضْلِ رَبِّى لِيَبْلُوَنِىٓ ءَأَشْكُرُ أَمْ أَكْفُرُ ۖ وَمَن شَكَرَ فَإِنَّمَا يَشْكُرُ لِنَفْسِهِۦ ۖ وَمَن كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ رَبِّى غَنِىٌّ كَرِيمٌ
| EnglishTalal Itani | He who had knowledge from the Book said, “I will bring it to you before your glance returns to you.” And when he saw it settled before him, he said, “This is from the grace of my Lord, to test me, whether I am grateful or ungrateful. He who is grateful, his gratitude is to his own credit; but he who is ungrateful—my Lord is Independent and Generous.” |

| EnglishPickthall, 1930 | One with whom was knowledge of the Scripture said: I will bring it thee before thy gaze returneth unto thee. And when he saw it set in his presence, (Solomon) said: This is of the bounty of my Lord, that He may try me whether I give thanks or am ungrateful. Whosoever giveth thanks he only giveth thanks for (the good of) his own soul; and whosoever is ungrateful (is ungrateful only to his own soul's hurt). For lo! my Lord is Absolute in independence, Bountiful. |
| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | Nezdinde kitabdan bir ilim bulunan zat ise: ben dedi: onu sana gözünü kırpmadan evvel getiririm, derken onu yanında duruyor görünce: bu rabbımın fazlından, dedi: beni imtihan için ki şükür mü edeceğim? Yoksa küfran mı? Her kim şükr ederse sırf kendi lehine eder, her kim de küfranda bulunursa şübhe yok ki rabbım ganiydir kerîmdir |
| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | Un autre génie, celui qui avait la science du Livre, dit à Salomon : Je te l’apporterai avant que tu aies cligné de l’œil. Et lorsque Salomon vit le trône placé devant lui, il dit : C’est une marque de la faveur de Dieu ; il m’éprouve pour savoir si je serai reconnaissant ou ingrat. Quiconque est reconnaissant l’est à son avantage ; quiconque est ingrat, Dieu peut s’en passer, car il est riche et généreux. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | En een ander, die de kennis der schriften bezat, zeide; Ik zal u dien in een oogwenk brengen. En toen Salomo den troon voor zich zag geplaatst, zeide hij: Dit is eene gunst van mijn Heer, om mij te beproeven, of ik dankbaar of ondankbaar zal zijn, en hij die dankbaar is, is dankbaar in zijn eigen voordeel; maar indien iemand ondankbaar is, waarlijk, dan is mijn Heer zelfgenoegzaam en milddadig. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | (Un altro genio) quegli che aveva la scienza del Libro, disse a Salomone): Io te lo recherò prima che tu chiuda l’occhio. E quando Salomone vide il trono dinanzi a lui, disse: Questa è una prova del favor di Dio; ei vuol vedere se sarò ingrato. Chi e riconoscente lo è per suo bene; chi è ingrato, Dio è ricco e generoso, e non sa che fare di lui. |
