And those who had coveted his position the day before began to say, ‘Ah! it is indeed Allah Who enlarges the provision for such of His servants as He pleases and straitens it for whom He pleases. Had not Allah been gracious to us, He would have caused it to swallow us up also. Ah! the ungrateful never prosper.’

اور ان لوگوں نے ‘ جنہوں نے ایک دن پہلے تک اس کے مقام (کو حاصل کرنے) کی تمنّا کی تھی‘ اس حالت میں صبح کی کہ وہ کہہ رہے تھے وائے حسرت! اللہ اپنے بندوں میں سے جس کےلئے چاہے رزق کشادہ کر دیتا ہے اور (جس کےلئے چاہے) تنگ بھی کر دیتا ہے۔ اگر ہم پر اللہ نے احسان نہ کیا ہوتا تو وہ ہمیں بھی دھنسا دیتا۔ وائے حسرت! کافر کامیاب نہیں ہوا کرتے۔
French
Et ceux qui la veille avaient convoité son rang, se mirent à dire : « Ah ! C’est assurément Allāh Qui accroît la provision pour qui Il veut d'entre Ses serviteurs, et Qui la réduit pour qui Il veut . Si Allāh n’avait pas été gracieux envers nous, certainement Il nous aurait fait engloutir aussi. Ah ! Les ingrats ne prospèrent jamais ! »
German
Und jene, die noch tags zuvor sich an seine Stelle gewünscht hatten, sprachen: "Ah sieh! es ist fürwahr Allah, Der die Mittel zum Unterhalt weitet und beschränkt, wem Er will unter Seinen Dienern. Wäre uns Allah nicht gnädig gewesen, Er hätte (die Erde) uns verschlingen lassen. Ah sieh! die Undankbaren haben nie Erfolg."

E quelli che il giorno prima avevano desiderato la sua condizione, incominciarono a dire: «Ah! È Allah, veramente, Colui che fa ampliare la provvista per chi Egli vuole tra i Suoi servi, e li limita per chi Egli vuole.
