Translations of Quran 9:52
EnglishTalal Itani

Say, “Are you expecting for us anything other than one of the two excellences? As for us: we are expecting that Allah will afflict you with a punishment from Himself, or at our hands. So wait, we are waiting with you.”

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Say: Can ye await for us aught save one of two good things (death or victory in Allah's way)? while we await for you that Allah will afflict you with a doom from Him or at our hands. Await then! Lo! We are awaiting with you.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

De ki: siz, bize ancak iki güzelliğin birini gözetebilirsiniz, biz ise size Allahın kendi tarafından veya bizim ellerimizle bir azâb indirmesini gözetiyoruz, onun için gözetin çünkü biz beraberinizde gözetiyoruz

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Dis-leur : Qu’attendez-vous ? Que, sur deux belles destinées, il leur en arrive une : la victoire ou le martyre ? Quant à nous, nous attendons que Dieu vous inflige un châtiment par lui-même ou par nos mains. Eh bien ! Attendez ; nous attendrons aussi pour vous.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Zeg: Verwacht gij dat ons iets anders zal overkomen, dan een der twee uitmuntendste dingen, overwinning of martelaarschap? Maar wij verwachten omtrent u, dat God u eene straf oplegt, hetzij van hem zelven of door onze handen. Wacht dus, om te zien wat het einde zal zijn; want wij zullen op u wachten.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Di’ loro: Che aspettate? che di due belli (destini) ce ne arrivi uno? In quanto a noi aspettiamo che Dio vi visiti col suo gastigo, o col gastigo operato colle nostre mani. E bene! aspettate; aspetteremo ancora noi.
