Or do they have gods to defend them other than Us? They are unable [even] to help themselves, nor can they be protected from Us.

அல்லது, (நம்முடைய வேதனையிலிருந்து) நம்மையன்றி அவர்களைக் காப்பாற்றும் தெய்வங்கள் அவர்களுக்கு இருக்கின்றனவா? அவர்கள் தமக்குத்தாமே உதவிசெய்ய சக்தியற்றவர்கள். மேலும் அவர்கள் நம்மிடமிருந்து காப்பாற்றப்படுபவர்களும் அல்லர்.

එසේ නැතහොත්, අපගෙන් තොරව ඔවුන් වළක්වාලන දෙවිවරුන් ඔවුනට වෙත් ද? තමන්ට ම උපකාර කිරීමට පවා ඔවුහු හැකියාව නො දරති. තවද ඔවුහු අපගෙන් ආරක්ෂා කරනු නො ලබති.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
کیا ہمارے سوا ان کے اور معبود ہیں جو انہیں مصیبتوں سے بچا لیں۔ کوئی بھی خود اپنی مدد کی طاقت نہیں رکھتا اور نہ کوئی ہماری طرف سے رفاقت دیا جاتا ہے.
JapaneseRyoichi Mita
それともかれらには,われ以外にかれらを守護出来る神々があるのか。かれら(神々)は,自分自身も助けられず,またわれから防ぎおおせない。
ChineseMa Jian
除我之外,难道他们有许多神明保护他们吗?他们所崇拜的神明,不能自卫,他们对我(的刑罚)也不蒙庇护。

Tafsir of 21:43

The Lessons to be learned from Those Who mocked the Messengers in the Past Allah says consoling His Messenger for the pain and insult caused by the mockery and disbelief of the idolators, وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِىءَ بِرُسُلٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِالَّذِينَ سَخِرُواْ مِنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ (Indeed (many) Messengers were mocked before you, but the scoffers were surrounded by what they used to mock.) meaning, the punishment which they thought would never come to pass.

Surely, there has reached you the information (news) about the Messengers (before you)) 6:34. Then Allah menitons His favor for His creatures; He protects them by night and by day, taking care of them and watching over them with His Eye that never sleeps.…
