Translations of Quran 34:31
EnglishTalal Itani

Those who disbelieve say, “We will never believe in this Quran, nor in what came before it.” If you could only see the wrongdoers, captive before their Lord, throwing back allegations at one another. Those who were oppressed will say to those who were arrogant, “Were it not for you, we would have been believers.”

EnglishPickthall, 1930

And those who disbelieve say: We believe not in this Qur'an nor in that which was before it; but oh, if thou couldst see, when the wrong-doers are brought up before their Lord, how they cast the blame one to another; how those who were despised (in the earth) say unto those who were proud: But for you, we should have been believers.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Bununla beraber o küfredenler: «biz ne bu Kur'ana inanırız, ne de önündekine» dediler, fakat görsen o zalimler yakalanıp rablarının huzuruna durduruldukları zaman ba'zısı ba'zısına söz atarken, ki taraftan zebun edilenler, o büyüklük taslıyanlara şöyle diyorlardır: siz olmasa idiniz her halde biz mü'min olurduk

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Les incrédules disent. : Nous ne croirons ni à ce Koran ni aux livres envoyés avant lui. Si tu voyais les méchants, lorsqu’ils seront amenés devant leur Seigneur et se renverront mutuellement des reproches ! Les faibles de la terre diront aux puissants : Sans vous, nous aurions été croyants.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

De ongeloovigen zeggen: Wij zullen op geenerlei wijze in dezen Koran gelooven, noch in dat gene, wat vóór deze werd geopenbaard. Indien gij het slechts kondet zien, als de onrechtvaardigen voor hunnen Heer zullen worden geplaatst. Zij zullen elkander verwijtingen doen. De zwakken zullen tot de machtigen der aarde zeggen: Zonder u, zouden wij waarlijk ware geloovigen zijn geweest.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Gl’increduli dicono: Non crederemo nè a questo Corano, nè ai libri mandati prima. Se tu vedrai i malvagi quando saranno condotti dinanzi al loro Signore, si rimprovereranno scambievolmente. I deboli diranno ai potenti: Senza di voi noi saremmo stati credenti.
