فَقَـٰتِلْ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ لَا تُكَلَّفُ إِلَّا نَفْسَكَ ۚ وَحَرِّضِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۖ عَسَى ٱللَّهُ أَن يَكُفَّ بَأْسَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ أَشَدُّ بَأْسًا وَأَشَدُّ تَنكِيلًا

Translations of Quran 4:84
EnglishTalal Itani

So fight in the cause of Allah; you are responsible only for yourself. And rouse the believers. Perhaps Allah will restrain the might of those who disbelieve. Allah is Stronger in Might, and More Punishing.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

So fight (O Muhammad) in the way of Allah Thou art not taxed (with the responsibility for anyone) except thyself - and urge on the believers. Peradventure Allah will restrain the might of those who disbelieve. Allah is stronger in might and stronger in inflicting punishment.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Onun için Allah yolunda çarpış, ancak nefsinden başkasiyle mükellef değilsin, mü'minleri de çarpış, ancak nefsinden başkasiyle mükellef değilsin, mü'mileri de çarpışmağa teşvik et, me'muldur ki Allah a küfretmekte bulunanların tazyikını defetsin, Allah tazyikce de daha şiddetli tenkilce de daha şiddetlidir.

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Combats dans le sentier de Dieu, et n’impose des charges difficiles qu’à toi-même. Excite les croyants au combat. Dieu peut arrêter la violence des infidèles, il est plus fort qu’eux, et ses châtiments sont plus terribles.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Strijdt daarom voor Gods zaak, en legt niemand iets moeielijks op, behalve u zelven; spoort echter de godvruchtigen tot den strijd aan, misschien wil God den moed der ongeloovigen verkleinen; want God is sterker dan zij, en meer in staat te straffen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Combatti nel sentiere di Dio, e non imporre pesi difficili che a te stesso. Eccita i credenti alla guerra. Dio è pronto ad arrestare la violenza degl’infedeli. Egli è più forte di loro, ed i suoi castighi sono più terribili.
