Translations of Quran 9:107
EnglishTalal Itani

Then there are those who establish a mosque to cause harm, and disbelief, and disunity among the believers, and as an outpost for those who fight Allah and His Messenger. They will swear: “Our intentions are nothing but good.” But Allah bears witness that they are liars.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

And as for those who chose a place of worship out of opposition and disbelief, and in order to cause dissent among the believers, and as an outpost for those who warred against Allah and His messenger aforetime, they will surely swear: We purposed naught save good. Allah beareth witness that they verily are liars.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Bir de şunlar var ki tuttular bir mescid yaptılar, inadına ızrar için, küfr için, mü'minlerin arasına tefrıka sokmak için, ve bundan evvel Allaha ve Resulüne harbeden herife bir pusu yapıvermek için, bununla beraber husni niyyetten başka bir muradımız yoktu diye yemin de edecekler, fakat Allah şâhid ki bunlar şeksiz şüphesiz yalancıdırlar

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Il en est qui ont bâti un temple pour nuire aux croyants, et par infidélité, dans le but de désunir les croyants et afin que ce temple soit un lieu d’embuscade pour ceux qui font la guerre à Dieu et à son apôtre. Ils jureront en disant : Nous n’avons voulu que le bien. Dieu est témoin qu’ils mentent.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Er zijn sommigen die een tempel hebben gebouwd om de geloovigen te schaden en ongeloof voort te planten; om verdeeling tusschen de ware geloovigen te zaaien en als eene hinderlaag voor hen, die in vroegeren tijd tegen God en zijn gezant hebben gestreden; en zij zweren, zeggende: Waarlijk, wij hebben geen ander doel dan goed te handelen; maar God is getuige, dat zij zekerlijk liegen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Vi sono di quei che han fabbricato un tempio per nuocere ai credenti, per infedeltà, nello scopo di disunire i credenti e per servire d’insidia a coloro che fanno la guerra a Dio, ed al suo apostolo. Giureranno dicendo: Noi non abbiamo voluto che il bene. Dio è testimonio che mentiscono.
