Translations of Quran 71:7
EnglishTalal Itani

Whenever I called them to Your forgiveness, they thrust their fingers into their ears, and wrapped themselves in their garments, and insisted, and became more and more arrogant.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

And lo! whenever I call unto them that Thou mayst pardon them they thrust their fingers in their ears and cover themselves with their garments and persist (in their refusal) and magnify themselves in pride.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Ve ben onları mağfiret buyurman için her da'vet ettiğimde onlar parmaklarını kulaklarına tıkadılar ve esvablarına büründüler ve ısrar ettiler ve kibirlendikçe kibirlendiler.

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Toutes les fois que je les appelais à se repentir, afin que tu pusses leur pardonner, ils se bouchaient les oreilles de leurs doigts et s’enveloppaient de leurs vêtements ; ils persévérèrent dans leur erreur et s’enflèrent d’orgueil.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

En wanneer ik hen tot het ware geloof riep, opdat gij hun zoudt vergeven, staken zij hunne vingers in hunne ooren, en bedekten zich met hunne kleederen; zij volhardden in hunne ongeloovigheid, en versmaadden mijn raad hoovaardig.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Ogni qual volta li ho invitati (al tuo culto) affinchè tu potessi perdonarli, si turavano le orecchia colle dita, e s’avviluppavano nelle loro vesti; perseverarono (nell’errore) e si gonfiarono d’orgoglio.
