Translations of Quran 64:6
EnglishTalal Itani

That is because their messengers came to them with clear explanations, but they said, “Are human beings going to guide us?” So they disbelieved and turned away. But Allah is in no need. Allah is Independent and Praiseworthy.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

That was because their messengers (from Allah) kept coming unto them with clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty), but they said: Shall mere mortals guide us? So they disbelieved and turned away, and Allah was independent (of them). Allah is Absolute, Owner of Praise.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Çünkü onlara Peygamberleri beyyinelerle geliyordu da onlar bizi bir beşer mi yola getirecek? Deyip küfr etmişler ve aksine gitmişlerdi, Allah da müstağni olduğunu gösterdi, öyle ya Allah ganîdir hamîddir.

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Car, lorsque des apôtres vinrent à eux, accompagnés de signes évidents, ils disaient : Un homme comme nous nous enseignerait la voie ! Et ils ne croyaient pas, et ils tournaient le dos aux avertissements. Dieu peut bien se passer d’eux ; il est riche et plein de gloire.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Dit zullen zij ondergaan, omdat hunne gezanten met duidelijke bewijzen hunner zending tot hen kwamen, en zij zeiden: zullen menschen ons leiden? Daarom geloofden zij niet en wenden zich af. Maar God had niemand noodig; want God is zich zelven toereikend en waardig geprezen te worden.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Poichè quando vennero a loro gli apostoli accompagnati da segni evidenti, dicevano: Un uomo (come noi) e’ insegnerà la via? E non credevano, e volgevano il tergo agli avvertimenti. Dio può fare a meno di essi; egli è ricco e pieno di gloria.
