Translation

EN

They may hide (Their crimes) from men, but they cannot hide (Them) from Allah, seeing that He is in their midst when they plot by night, in words that He cannot approve: And Allah Doth compass round all that they do.

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

They try to hide themselves from people, but they cannot hide from God. He is with them when they plot at night, saying things that do not please Him: He is fully aware of everything they do.

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

They seek to hide from men and seek not to hide from Allah. He is with them when by night they hold discourse displeasing unto Him. Allah ever surroundeth what they do.

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

They conceal [their evil intentions and deeds] from the people, but they cannot conceal [them] from Allāh, and He is with them [in His knowledge] when they spend the night in such as He does not accept of speech. And ever is Allāh, of what they do, encompassing.

Allah'ın razı olmadığı sözü gece kurarlarken, onu, insanlardan gizliyorlar da kendileriyle beraber olan Allah'dan gizlemiyorlar. Allah işlediklerinin hepsini bilmektedir.

Bunlar, insanlardan (hainliklerini) gizlerler de, Allah'tan gizlemezler. Oysa O, geceleyin istemediği şeyi kurarlarken onların yanı başlarındadır. Allah, onların yaptıklarını (ilmiyle) kuşatmıştır.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

İnsanlardan gizlerler de Allah’tan gizleyemezler. (Oysa) geceleyin, O’nun razı olmadığı sözü düzüp kurarken, O onlarla beraberdir. Allah onların yaptıklarını çepeçevre kuşatandır.

يستترون من الناس خوفًا من اطلاعهم على أعمالهم السيئة، ولا يستترون من الله تعالى ولا يستحيون منه، وهو عزَّ شأنه معهم بعلمه، مطلع عليهم حين يدبِّرون -ليلا- ما لا يرضى من القول، وكان الله -تعالى- محيطًا بجميع أقوالهم وأفعالهم، لا يخفى عليه منها شيء.
