﴿فويل للذين يكتبون الكتاب بأيديهم ثم يقولون هذا من عند الله ليشتروا﴾ [البَقَرَة: 79]
| Dr Kamal Omar Then woe to those who write the book with their own hands and then say: “This is from Allah,” so that they may earn therewith a miserable sum. Woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for what they earn |
| Dr Laleh Bakhtiar And woe to those who write down the Book with their own hands. Again, they say: This is from God. Certainly, they exchange it for a little price. Then, woe to them for what their hands wrote down. And woe to them for what they earn |
| Dr Munir Munshey And misery is for (their scholars,) those who write a book with their own hands and then say, "This is from Allah!" In return for that, they acquire a petty price. Woe to them for what they write with their hands! Woe to them for what they earn with it |
| Edward Henry Palmer But woe to those who write out the Book with their hands and say 'this is from God;' to buy therewith a little price! and woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for what they gain |
| Farook Malik Woe to those who write the Book with their own hands and then say: "This is from Allah," so that they may sell it for a petty price! Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they have earned |
| George Sale And woe unto them who transcribe corruptly the book of the law with their hands, and then say, this is from God: That they may sell it for a small price. Therefore woe unto them because of that which their hands have written; and woe unto them for that which they have gained |
| Maududi So woe to their learned people, who write the law with their own hands and then say to the people, "This is from Allah," so that they might gain some paltry worldly end. (They do not see that) this writing of their hands will bring woe to them and what they gain thereby will lead to their ruin |
