﴿قَدۡ قَالَهَا ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَمَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يَكۡسِبُونَ ﴾

Abdel Haleem Those who lived before them said the same. What they did was of no use to them |
Abdul Hye Surely, those before them said it, yet all that they had earned did not avail them |
Abdullah Yusuf Ali Thus did the (generations) before them say! But all that they did was of no profit to them |
Abdul Majid Daryabadi Surely those who were before them said it, yet there availed them not that which they had been earning |
Ahmed Ali Those before them had also said so, and yet nothing of what they did availed them in the least |
Aisha Bewley Those who came before them also said that, but what they earned did not avail them |
A. J. Arberry So said those that were before them; but that they earned did not avail them |
Ali Quli Qarai Those who were before them [also] said that, but what they used to earn did not avail them |
