TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Hakıkaten Karûn Musânın kavminden idi de onlara karşı bağyetmiş idi, ona öyle hazîneler vermiştik ki anahtarları cidden güçlü kuvvetli bir bölüğe ağır geliyordu, o vakıt kavmı ona şöyle demişti: güvenme çünkü Allah güvenenleri sevmez

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Karoun était du peuple de Moïse ; mais il agissait iniquement envers ses concitoyens. Nous lui avions donné tant de trésors, que leurs clefs auraient pu à peine être portées par une troupe d’hommes robustes. Ses concitoyens lui disaient ; Ne te glorifie pas de tes trésors, car Dieu n’aime point les glorieux.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Karoen behoorde tot het volk van Mozes, maar hij gedroeg zich onbeschaamd omtrent zijne stamgenooten, want wij hadden hem zoo veel schats gegeven, dat het dragen zijner sleutels onderscheidene sterke mannen vorderde. Toen zijn volk tot hem zeide: Praal niet buitensporig; want God bemint dengene niet, die overmatig op hunne rijkdommen bogen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Karun era del popolo di Mosè; ma agiva iniquamente verso i suoi concittadini. Gli avevamo dato tanti tesori, che le loro chiavi avrebbero potuto appena esser portate da una turba d’uomini robusti. I suoi concittadini gli dicevano: Non ti gloriare de’ tuoi tesori, perchè Dio non ama chi si gloria.
