وَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَكَ بِٱلسَّيِّئَةِ قَبْلَ ٱلْحَسَنَةِ وَقَدْ خَلَتْ مِن قَبْلِهِمُ ٱلْمَثُلَـٰتُ ۗ وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُو مَغْفِرَةٍ لِّلنَّاسِ عَلَىٰ ظُلْمِهِمْ ۖ وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَشَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ

Translations of Quran 13:6
EnglishTalal Itani

And they urge you to hasten evil before good, though examples have passed away before them. Your Lord is full of forgiveness towards the people for their wrongdoings, yet your Lord is severe in retribution.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

And they bid thee hasten on the evil rather than the good, when exemplary punishments have indeed occurred before them. But lo! thy Lord is rich in pardon for mankind despite their wrong, and lo! thy Lord is strong in punishment.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Bir de senden haseneden evvel seyyieyi isti'cal ediyorlar, halbuki önlerinde misal olacak ukubetler geçti ve hakıkat rabbın insanların zulümlerine karşı mağrifet sahibi, bununla beraber rabbın pek şedidül'ıkab

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Ils te solliciteront plutôt de hâter le mal que le bien (la colère plutôt que la miséricorde de Dieu). De semblables exemples ont déjà eu lieu avant eux. Certes Dieu est indulgent pour les hommes, malgré leur iniquité ; mais aussi il est terrible dans ses châtiments.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Zij zullen u vragen veeleer het kwade dan het goede te verhaasten; hoewel zij reeds voorbeelden van de goddelijke wraak hebben gezien. Waarlijk, de Heer bezit inschikkelijkheid omtrent de menschen, niettegenstaande hunne boosheid; maar de Heer is ook streng in het straffen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Ti pregheranno di affrettare piuttosto il male che il bene. Simili esempj si son verificati in passato. Certamente Dio è indulgente per gli uomini, malgrado la loro iniquità; ma è altrettanto terribile ne’ suoi gastighi.
