| AA | When We sent two of them they called them liars; so We sent a third to strengthen them. "We have been sent to you," they said. |
| NQ | When We sent to them two Messengers, they belied them both, so We reinforced them with a third, and they said: "Verily! We have been sent to you as Messengers." |
| PK | When We sent unto them twain, and they denied them both, so We reinforced them with a third, and they said: Lo! we have been sent unto you. |

| YU | When We (first) sent to them two messengers, they rejected them: But We strengthened them with a third: they said, "Truly, we have been sent on a mission to you." |
|
| 15. |
| AA | "You are only men like us," they replied; "Ar-Rahman has not sent down any thing. You are speaking only lies." |
| NQ | They (people of the town) said: "You are only human beings like ourselves, and the Most Beneficent (Allâh) has revealed nothing, you are only telling lies." |

| SH | They said: Our Lord knows that we are most surely messengers to you. |
| YU | They said: "Our Lord doth know that we have been sent on a mission to you: |
|
| 17. |
| AA | Our duty is to convey the message clearly." |
| NQ | "And our duty is only to convey plainly (the Message)." |
| PK | And our duty is but plain conveyance (of the message). |
| SH | And nothing devolves on us but a clear deliverance (of the message). |
| YU | "And our duty is only to proclaim the clear Message." |
|
| 18. |
| AA | They rejoined: "We feel you augur ill. If you do not desist, we shall stone you to death, and inflict a grievous punishment on you." |
| NQ | They (people) said: "For us, we see an evil omen from you, if you cease not, we will surely stone you, and a painful torment will touch you from us." |
| PK | (The people of the city) said: We augur ill of you. If ye desist not, we shall surely stone you, and grievous torture will befall you at our hands. |

| YU | The (people) said: "for us, we augur an evil omen from you: if ye desist not, we will certainly stone you. And a grievous punishment indeed will be inflicted on you by us." |
|
| 19. |
| AA | (The messengers) said: "The augury is within your own selves. Do you (consider it a bad omen) that you should be warned? You are a people guilty of excess." |
| NQ | They (Messengers) said: "Your evil omens be with you! (Do you call it "evil omen") because you are admonished? Nay, but you are a people Musrifûn (transgressing all bounds by committing all kinds of great sins, and by disobeying Allâh). |
| PK | They said: Your evil augury be with you! Is it because ye are reminded (of the truth)? Nay, but ye are froward folk! |
| SH | They said: Your evil fortune is with you; what! if you are reminded! Nay, you are an extravagant people. |
| YU | They said: "Your evil omens are with yourselves: (deem ye this an evil omen). If ye are admonished? Nay, but ye are a people transgressing all bounds!" |
|
| 20. |
| AA | Then a man came running from the other side of the city. "O my people," he said, "follow the messengers. |
| NQ | And there came running from the farthest part of the town, a man, saying: "O my people! Obey the Messengers; |
| PK | And there came from the uttermost part of the city a man running. He cried: O my people! Follow those who have been sent! |
| SH | And from the remote part of the city there came a man running, he said: O my people! follow the messengers; |
| YU | Then there came running, from the farthest part of the City, a man, saying, "O my people! Obey the messengers: |
|
| 21. |
| AA | Follow those who do not ask for any recompense of you, and are rightly guided. |
| NQ | "Obey those who ask no wages of you (for themselves), and who are rightly guided. |

| NQ | "And why should I not worship Him (Allâh Alone) Who has created me and to Whom you shall be returned. |
| PK | For what cause should I not serve Him Who hath created me, and unto Whom ye will be brought back? |
| SH | And what reason have I that I should not serve Him Who brought me into existence? And to Him you shall be brought back; |
| YU | "It would not be reasonable in me if I did not serve Him Who created me, and to Whom ye shall (all) be brought back. |
|
| 23. |
| AA | Should I take other gods apart from Him, who would neither be able to intercede for me nor save me if Ar-Rahman brings me harm? |
| NQ | "Shall I take besides Him âliha (gods), if the Most Beneficent (Allâh) intends me any harm, their intercession will be of no use for me whatsoever, nor can they save me? |
| PK | Shall I take (other) gods in place of Him when, if the Beneficent should wish me any harm, their intercession will avail me naught, nor can they save? |
| SH | What! shall I take besides Him gods whose intercession, If the Beneficent Allah should desire to afflict me with a harm, shall not avail me aught, nor shall they be able to deliver me? |
| YU | "Shall I take (other) gods besides Him? If (Allah) Most Gracious should intend some adversity for me, of no use whatever will be their intercession for me, nor can they deliver me. |
|
| 24. |
| AA | In that case I would surely be in clear error. |
| NQ | "Then verily, I should be in plain error. |
| PK | Then truly I should be in error manifest. |
| SH | In that case I shall most surely be in clear error: |
| YU | "I would indeed, if I were to do so, be in manifest Error. |
