27:36 falam-maa jaa-a sulaymaana qaala atumid-duunani bimaalin fa maa aataaniyal-laahu khayrum mim-maa aataakum* bal antum bi hadiy-yatikum tafraHuun
Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
So when the envoy came to Sulaiman, he said,
"Are you helping me with wealth? What Allah has bestowed upon me is better
than what He has given you; rather it is you who are delighted at your
gift."
Yusuf Ali:
Now when (the embassy) came to Solomon, he said: "Will ye give me abundance in wealth? But that which Allah has given me is better than that which He has given you! Nay it is ye who rejoice in your gift!
Pickthal:
So when (the envoy) came unto Solomon, (the King) said: What! Would ye help me with wealth? But that which Allah hath given me is better than that which He hath given you. Nay it is ye (and not I) who exult in your gift.
