It is true thou wilt not be able to guide every one, whom thou lovest; but Allah guides those whom He will and He knows best those who receive guidance.

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

You [Prophet] cannot guide everyone you love to the truth; it is God who guides whoever He will: He knows best those who will follow guidance.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleemall-rights-reserved

Lo! thou (O Muhammad) guidest not whom thou lovest, but Allah guideth whom He will. And He is Best Aware of those who walk aright.

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

Indeed, [O Muḥammad], you do not guide whom you like, but Allāh guides whom He wills. And He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided.

Sen, sevdiğini doğru yola eriştiremezsin, ama Allah, dilediğini doğru yola eriştirir. Doğru yola girecekleri en iyi O bilir.

(Resulüm!) Sen sevdiğini hidayete eriştiremezsin; bilakis, Allah dilediğine hidayet verir ve hidayete girecek olanları en iyi O bilir.

إنك -أيها الرسول- لا تهدي هداية توفيق مَن أحببت هدايته، ولكن ذلك بيد الله يهدي مَن يشاء أن يهديه للإيمان، ويوفقه إليه، وهو أعلم بمن يصلح للهداية فيهديه.
