They said: "O Shu'aib! much of what thou sayest we do not understand! In fact among us we see that thou hast no strength! Were it not for thy family, we should certainly have stoned thee! for thou hast among us no great position!"

They said, ‘Shuayb, we do not understand much of what you say, and we find you very weak in our midst. But for your family, we would have stoned you, for you have no great status among us.’

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

They said: O Shu'eyb! We understand not much of that thou tellest, and lo! we do behold thee weak among us. But for thy family, we should have stoned thee, for thou art not strong against us.

"Ey Şuayb! Söylediklerinin çoğunu anlamıyor ve doğrusu seni aramızda güçsüz görüyoruz. Eğer taraftarların olmasaydı seni taşlardık. Esasen bizim gözümüzde pek itibarın da yoktur" dediler.

Dediler ki: "Ey Şu'ayb! Biz senin söylediklerinin çoğundan birşey anlamıyoruz. Ayrıca seni içimizde çok zayıf biri olarak görüyoruz. Eğer akrabaların olmasaydı mutlaka seni recmederdik (taşa tutardık). Senin bize hiçbir üstünlüğün yoktur."

(Medyenliler) şöyle demişti: “Ey Şuayb! Söylediklerinin çoğunu anlamıyoruz ve içimizde seni cidden zayıf görüyoruz! Kabilen olmasaydı seni mutlaka kovardık. Sen asla bize göre güçlü değilsin.”

قالوا: يا شعيب ما نفقه كثيرًا مما تقول، وإننا لَنراك فينا ضعيفًا لست من الكبراء ولا من الرؤساء، ولولا مراعاة عشيرتك لقتلناك رَجْما بالحجارة -وكان رهطه من أهل ملتهم-، وليس لك قَدْر واحترام في نفوسنا.
