Generally Accepted Translations of the Meaning
Muhammad Asad And they have been succeeded by [new] generations who - [in spite of] having inherited the divine writ-clutch but at the fleeting good of this lower world and say, "We shall be forgiven, the while they are ready, if another such fleeting good should come their way, to clutch at it [and sin again]. Have they not been solemnly pledged through the divine writ not to attribute unto God aught but what is true, and [have they not] read again and again all that is therein? Since the life in the hereafter is the better [of the two] for all who are conscious of God -will you not, then, use your reason zoom
M. M. Pickthall And a generation hath succeeded them who inherited the scriptures. They grasp the goods of this low life (as the price of evil-doing) and say: It will be forgiven us. And if there came to them (again) the offer of the like, they would accept it (and would sin again). Hath not the covenant of the Scripture been taken on their behalf that they should not speak aught concerning Allah save the truth? And they have studied that which is therein. And the abode of the Hereafter is better, for those who ward off (evil). Have ye then no sense zoom
Yusuf Ali (Saudi Rev. 1985) After them succeeded an (evil) generation: They inherited the Book, but they chose (for themselves) the vanities of this world, saying (for excuse): "(Everything) will be forgiven us."

But best for the righteous is the home in the Hereafter. Will ye not understand zoom
Shakir Then there came after them an evil posterity who inherited the Book, taking only the frail good of this low life and saying: It will be forgiven us.

Do you not then understand zoom
Wahiduddin Khan They were succeeded by generations who inherited the Scripture and took to the fleeting gains of this world, saying, We shall certainly be forgiven.

And they have studied whatever is in it. Surely the Home of the Hereafter is better for those who fear Him. Will you not understand zoom
Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar Then, after that succeeded successors who inherited the Book. They take advantage of this nearer world, and they say: We will be forgiven.

And studied they not what is in it, and know that the Last Abode is better for those who are Godfearing? Will you not, then, be reasonable? zoom
T.B.Irving Successors replaced them afterward who inherited the Book, taking on the show of this lowly place and saying: ´It will be forgiven us.´ If a show like it were give them (again), they would accept it.

Safi Kaskas They have been succeeded by generations who, [in spite of] having inherited the Book, hold onto the momentary treasures of this world [in preference to the Hereafter] and say, "We will be forgiven".

Didn't they make a commitment based on the Book, not to say anything about God that was not the Truth and [haven't they] studied its contents well? Since the life in the Hereafter is the better [of the two] for all who are mindful of God, will you not use your common sense? zoom
Abdul Hye Then after them evil successors succeeded who inherited the book, but they chose goods of this low life (evil pleasures of the world) saying (as excuse): “We shall be forgiven.” If similar offer (evil pleasures of the world) comes to them, they would again seize them.

Aisha Bewley An evil generation has succeeded them, inheriting the Book, taking the goods of this lower world, and saying, ´We will be forgiven.´ But if similar goods come to them again they still take them.

Ali Ünal And there have succeeded after them new generations who inherited the Book, taking the gains of this low life (for which they sell it), and saying: "We will be forgiven."

Was there not taken from them the promise concerning the Book that they should say of God nothing but the truth? and they (are people who) have studied and taught what is therein. But the abode of the Hereafter is better for those who keep from disobedience to God in reverence for Him and piety. Will you not, then, reason and understand zoom
Ali Quli Qara'i Then they were succeeded by an evil posterity which inherited the Book: they grab the transitory gains of this lower world, and say, ‘It will be forgiven us.’ And if similar transitory gains were to come their way, they would grab them too.

Muhammad Sarwar Their descendants who inherited the Book gained (by bribery only) worthless things from the worldly life saying, "We shall be forgiven (for what we have done).

Shabbir Ahmed But, the succeeding generations that inherited the Scripture, did no better. They became more materialistic, falling for instant gains.

Dr. Kamal Omar Then succeeded after them a generation: they inherited Al-Kitab.

Non-Muslim and/or Orientalist works
Arthur John Arberry And there succeeded after them a succession who inherited the Book, taking the chance goods of this lower world, and saying, 'It will be forgiven us'; and if chance goods the like of them come to them, they will take them.

Edward Henry Palmer But there succeeded them successors who inherited the Book! They take the goods of this lower world and say, 'It will be forgiven us.'

John Medows Rodwell And they have had successors to succeed them: they have inherited the Book: they have received the passing good things of this lower world, and say, "It will be forgiven us." Yet if the like good things came to them again, they would again receive them.

But the mansion of the next world hath more value for those who fear God - Do ye not then comprehend? zoom
N J Dawood (2014) Then others succeeded them who inherited the Book and took to these nether vanities. ‘We shall be forgiven,‘ they said.

New and/or Partial Translations, and works in progress
Linda “iLHam” Barto After them another generation came. They inherited the (Bible), but they preferred the vanities of this world. They said, “We will be forgiven.” Whenever similar vanities came their way, they would seize them. Was a promise not taken from them in the (Bible) that they would not ascribe to Allah anything but the truth? They studied what is in (the Bible). The home of the hereafter is best for the righteous. Why won’t they understand? zoom
Sayyid Qutb They were succeeded by generations who inherited the Book. Yet these are keen to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of this lower world and say, “We shall be forgiven.” Should some similar pleasures come their way, they would certainly be keen to indulge them. Have they not solemnly pledged through their Scriptures to say nothing but the truth about God? And have they not studied well what is in [the Scriptures]? Surely the life in the hereafter is better for all who are God-fearing. Will you not use your reason? zoom
Ahmed Hulusi And following them were new generations who inherited the knowledge of the reality... They were living to attain the wealth of this base worldly life and were claiming, “We will be forgiven anyhow.” If they were offered an equal amount of worldly goods, they would have taken that too... Was a covenant not taken from them that they would not say things about Allah not based on the Truth? Did they not take a lesson from it and study what is in it? The eternal life to come is better for the protected ones... Will you not use your reason? zoom
Sayyed Abbas Sadr-Ameli Then there succeeded after them (an evil) posterity (who) inherited the Book (Turah) , taking the transitory goods of this lower world, and saying: ' It will be forgiven us '. And if similar transitory goods were to come to them (again) , they would take them, too. Was not the covenant of the Book taken with them that they should not attribute anything to Allah except the truth? And they have studied what is in it, while the abode of the Hereafter is better for those who keep from evil.Have you then no sense ? zoom
Al-muntakhab fi tafsir al-Qur'an al-Karim Then, there came their successors on whom the weight of AL-Tawrah had devolved and the responsibility of subscribing to its precept had fallen. Yet they chose to go by the world and its vanities, and unmerited forgiveness haunted their imagination; They said: "We will be forgiven our iniquities", and in vanity they wasted their days. Every opportunity favourable to a wicked end or purpose gave them occasion to a burst of merriment. Do they not recall to the mind that they did subscribe to the covenant Allah had revealed in AL-Tawrah which they have carefully studied; the covenant forbidding them to relate to Allah but the truth and emphasizing that the Hereafter is infinitely far better and more advantageous to those who entertain the profound reverence dutiful to Allah. Can you - people- not reflect zoom
Mir Aneesuddin Then successors who succeeded after them inherited the book, they accepted the apparent good of this low (life) and said, "We will be forgiven." And if a similar apparent good (again) comes to them they would accept it. Was not a pledge taken from them (through) the book, that they should not say anything about Allah except the truth? And they read that which is in the (book). And the home of the hereafter is better for those who guard (against evil). Will you not then understand? zoom
