Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Allah disdains not to use the similitude of things, lowest as well as highest. Those who believe know that it is truth from their Lord; but those who reject Faith say: "What means Allah by this similitude?" By it He causes many to stray, and many He leads into the right path; but He causes not to stray, except those who forsake (the path),-
Mufti Taqi Usmani
Indeed, Allah does not feel shy in citing any parable, be it that of a gnat or of something above it (in meanness). Now, as for those who believe, they know it is the truth from their Lord; while those who disbelieve say, .What could Allah have meant by this parable?. By this He lets many go astray, and by this He makes many find guidance. But He does not let anyone go astray thereby except those who are sinful
Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall
Lo! Allah disdaineth not to coin the similitude even of a gnat. Those who believe know that it is the truth from their Lord; but those who disbelieve say: What doth Allah wish (to teach) by such a similitude? He misleadeth many thereby, and He guideth many thereby; and He misleadeth thereby only miscreants;
Sahih International
Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did Allah intend by this as an example?" He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient,

Certes, Allah ne se gêne point de citer en exemple n'importe quoi: un moustique ou quoi que ce soit au-dessus; quant aux croyants, ils savent bien qu'il s'agit de la vérité venant de la part de leur Seigneur; quant aux infidèles, ils se demandent "Qu'a voulu dire Allah par un tel exemple?". Par cela, nombreux sont ceux qu'Il égare et nombreux sont ceux qu'Il guide; mais Il n'égare par cela que les pervers,
Воистину, Аллах не смущается приводить притчи о комаре или том, что больше него. Те, которые уверовали, знают, что это – истина от их Господа. Те же, которые не уверовали, говорят: «Чего хотел Аллах, когда приводил эту притчу?» Посредством нее Он многих вводит в заблуждение, а многих наставляет на прямой путь. Однако Он вводит в заблуждение посредством нее только нечестивцев,
Portugese
Deus não Se furta em exemplificar com um insignificante mosquito ou com algo maior ou menor do que ele. E os fiéis sabem que esta é a verdade emanada de seu Senhor. Quanto aos incrédulos, asseveram: Que quererá significar Deus com tal exemplo? Com isso desvia muitos e encaminha muitos outros. Mas, com isso, só desvia os depravados.
German
Wahrlich, Allah schämt sich nicht, irgendein Gleichnis zu prägen von einer Mücke oder von etwas Höherem. Nun diejenigen, die glauben, wissen, daß es die Wahrheit von ihrem Herrn ist. Diejenigen aber, die ungläubig sind, sagen: "Was wollte denn Allah mit einem solchen Gleichnis?" Er führt damit viele irre und leitet viele auch damit recht. Doch die Frevler führt Er damit irre
