وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا لُقْمَـٰنَ ٱلْحِكْمَةَ أَنِ ٱشْكُرْ لِلَّهِ ۚ وَمَن يَشْكُرْ فَإِنَّمَا يَشْكُرُ لِنَفْسِهِۦ ۖ وَمَن كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌ

EnglishSaheeh International
And We had certainly given Luqmān wisdom [and said], "Be grateful to Allāh." And whoever is grateful is grateful for [the benefit of] himself. And whoever denies [His favor] - then indeed, Allāh is Free of need and Praiseworthy.

இன்னும், நாம் லுஃக்மானுக்கு நிச்சயமாக ஞானத்தைக் கொடுத்தோம். "அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு நீர் நன்றி செலுத்தும்; ஏனென்றால் எவன் நன்றி செலுத்துகிறானோ அவன் தன(து நன்மை)க்காவே நன்றி செலுத்துகிறான்; இன்னும் எவன் நிராகரிக்கிறானோ (அவன் தன்னையே நட்டப்படுத்திக் கொள்கிறான்) - நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் (எவரிடத்தருந்தும்) தேவையில்லாதவன்; புகழப்படுபவன்".

තවද අල්ලාහ්ට කෘතවේදී වන්නට සැබැවින් ම අපි ලුක්මාන්ට ප්‍රඥාව පිරිනැමුවෙමු. තවද කවරෙකු කෘතවේදී වන්නේ ද එසේ ඔහු කෘතවේදී වනුයේ ඔහුට ම ය. තවද කවරෙකු ප්‍රතික්ෂේප කළේද එවිට නියත වශයෙන් ම අල්ලාහ් අවශ්‍යතාවන්ගෙන් තොර ය; ප්‍රශංසාලාභී ය.

اور ہم نے یقیناً لقمان کو حکمت دی تھی کہ تو اللہ تعالیٰ کا شکر کر ہر شکر کرنے واﻻ اپنے ہی نفع کے لئے شکر کرتا ہے جو بھی ناشکری کرے وه جان لے کہ اللہ تعالیٰ بے نیاز اور تعریفوں واﻻ ہے.

われは(以前に)ルクマーンに,アッラーに感謝するよう英知を授けた。誰でも感謝する者は,自分の魂のために感謝するのである。だが恩を忘れる者がいたところで,本当にアッラーには,何の問題もない。かれは讃美される方である。

我确已把智慧赏赐鲁格曼,(我说):你当感谢真主。感谢的人,只为自己而感谢,孤负的人,须知真主确是无求的,确是可颂的。
