EnglishTalal Itani

It was said to her, “Go inside the palace.” And when she saw it, she thought it was a deep pond, and she bared her legs. He said, “It is a palace paved with glass.” She said, “My Lord, I have done wrong to myself, and I have submitted with Solomon, to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.”

EnglishPickthall, 1930

It was said unto her: Enter the hall. And when she saw it she deemed it a pool and bared her legs. (Solomon) said: Lo! it is a hall, made smooth, of glass. She said: My Lord! Lo! I have wronged myself, and I surrender with Solomon unto Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Köşke gir denildi ona, derken onu görünce derin bir susandı ve paçalarından çemrendi, Süleyman, o dedi: mücellâ bir köşk, sırçadan, kadın ya rabb! Dedi: hakikaten ben evvel nefsime zulmetmişim, şimdi Süleymanın maiyyetinde teslim oldum Allaha, o rabbül'âlemine

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

On lui dit : Entrez dans ce palais. Et quand elle le vit, elle croyait que c’était une pièce d’eau, et se retroussa autour des jambes. C’est un palais pavé de cristal, répondit Salomon. — Seigneur, j’avais agi iniquement envers moi-même en adorant les idoles ; maintenant je me résigne, comme Salomon, à la volonté de Dieu, maître de l’univers.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Men zeide tot haar: Treed het paleis binnen, en toen zij het zag, dacht zij dat het een groot water was, en zij ontblootte hare beenen, door haar kleed op te lichten, om het te doorwaden. Daarop zeide Salomo tot haar: Waarlijk, dit is een paleis met glas geplaveid. Daarop zeide de koningin: O Heer! waarlijk, ik heb onrechtvaardig met mijne eigene ziel gehandeld en ik onderwerp mij met Salomo aan God, den Heer van alle schepselen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Le fu detto: Entrate in questo palazzo. E quando lo vide, credeva che fosse un lago d’acqua, e ritirò le gambe. Salomone disse: è un palazzo col pavimento di cristallo. Signore! io aveva agito iniquamente (adorando gl’idoli); ma ora mi rassegno, come Salomone, alla volontà di Dio, padrone dell’Universo.
