تَكَادُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتُ يَتَفَطَّرْنَ مِن فَوْقِهِنَّ ۚ وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ يُسَبِّحُونَ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّهِمْ وَيَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لِمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۗ أَلَآ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

Translations of Quran 42:5
EnglishTalal Itani

The heavens above them almost burst apart, while the angels glorify the praises of their Lord, and ask forgiveness for those on earth. Allah is indeed the Forgiver, the Merciful.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Almost might the heavens above be rent asunder while the angels hymn the praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those on the earth. Lo! Allah, He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Ki Gökler hemen hemen üstlerinden çatlıyacak gibi titreşiyorlar, Melekler hamd ile rablarına tesbih ediyorlar ve Yerdeki kimse için mağrifet diliyorlar, uyan Allahdır ancak öyle gafur, öyle rahîm

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Peu s’en faut que les cieux ne se fendent à leur voûte, de respect devant lui ; les anges célèbrent ses louanges et implorent son pardon pour les habitants de la terre. Certes, Dieu est l’Indulgent, le Miséricordieux.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Er is weinig toe noodig, dat de hemelen door de ontzaglijkheid zijner majesteit, vaneen worden gescheurd; de engelen verkondigen den lof van hunnen Heer, en vragen vergiffenis voor hen, die op de aarde wonen. Is God niet de Vergever van zonden, de Barmhartige?

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Poco manca che i cieli non si aprano (per rispetto dinanzi a lui); gli angeli celebrano le sue lodi, ed implorano il suo perdono per gli abitanti della terra. Certamente Dio è l’Indulgente, il Misericordioso.
