Translations of Quran 9:79
EnglishTalal Itani

Those who criticize the believers who give charity voluntarily, and ridicule those who find nothing to give except their own efforts—Allah ridicules them. They will have a painful punishment.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Those who point at such of the believers as give the alms willingly and such as can find naught to give but their endeavours, and deride them - Allah (Himself) derideth them. Theirs will be a painful doom.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Sadakatta bulunanlara bir türlü, ve güçlerinin yetebildiğinden başkasını bulamıyanlara diğer türlü lâf atarak bunlarla eğlenenler, Allah onları maskaraya çevirdikten başka bir de kendileri için elîm bir azab var

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Quant à ceux qui calomnient les croyants à propos des aumônes surérogatoires, ou parce qu’ils ne peuvent les acquitter, qu’avec beaucoup de peine, — ceux qui raillent, Dieu les raillera à son tour. Un châtiment douloureux les attend.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Zij die de geloovigen belasteren wegens de onverplichte aalmoezen, of omdat dezen daaraan niet dan met veel moeite kunnen voldoen, en hen daarom bespotten, God zal hen bespotten en zij zullen eene gestrenge straf ondergaan.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

In quanto a quei che calunniano i fedeli per le elemosine eccessive, o perchè non possono pagarle che a forza di lavoro; quei che li burlano, Dio li burlerà anch’egli. Un gastigo doloroso li attende.
