Translation

EN

And behold, We said to the angels: "Bow down to Adam" and they bowed down. Not so Iblis: he refused and was haughty: He was of those who reject Faith.

When We told the angels, ‘Bow down before Adam,’ they all bowed. But not Iblis, who refused and was arrogant: he was one of the disobedient.

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

And when We said unto the angels: Prostrate yourselves before Adam, they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. He demurred through pride, and so became a disbeliever.

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

And [mention] when We said to the angels, "Prostrate before Adam"; so they prostrated, except for Iblees. He refused and was arrogant and became of the disbelievers.

Meleklere, "Adem'e secde edin" demiştik, İblis müstesna hepsi secde ettiler, o ise kaçındı, büyüklük tasladı ve inkar edenlerden oldu.

Ve o zaman meleklere: "Âdem'e secde edin!" dedik, hemen secde ettiler. Yalnız İblis dayattı, kibrine yediremedi, inkârcılardan oldu.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

Hani meleklere “Âdem için (Allah’a) secde edin.” demiştik; onlar da hemen secde etmişti. İblis hariç. (Çünkü o) yüz çevirmiş, kibirlenmiş ve kâfirlerden olmuştu.

واذكر -أيها الرسول- للناس تكريم الله لآدم حين قال سبحانه للملائكة: اسجدوا لآدم إكرامًا له وإظهارًا لفضله، فأطاعوا جميعًا إلا إبليس امتنع عن السجود تكبرًا وحسدًا، فصار من الجاحدين بالله، العاصين لأمره.
