But if ye decide to take one wife in place of another, even if ye had given the latter a whole treasure for dower, Take not the least bit of it back: Would ye take it by slander and manifest wrong?
Mufti Taqi Usmani
If you want to take a wife in place of the one (you have), and you have given her plenty of wealth, then do not take any of it back. Would you take it through imputation and open sin?
Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall
And if ye wish to exchange one wife for another and ye have given unto one of them a sum of money (however great), take nothing from it. Would ye take it by the way of calumny and open wrong?
Sahih International
But if you want to replace one wife with another and you have given one of them a great amount [in gifts], do not take [back] from it anything. Would you take it in injustice and manifest sin?
French
Si vous voulez substituer une épouse à une autre, et que vous ayez donné à l'une un quintar, n'en reprenez rien. Quoi! Le reprendriez-vous par injustice et péché manifeste?
Если вы пожелали заменить одну жену другой и если одной из них вы подарили кантар, то ничего не берите себе из этого. Неужели вы станете отбирать это, поступая лживо и совершая очевидный грех?
Portugese
Se desejardes trocar da esposa, tendo-a dotado com um quintal, não lho diminuais em nada. Tomá-lo-íeis de volta, com uma falsa imputação e um delito flagrante?
German
Und wenn ihr eine Gattin gegen eine andere eintauschen wollt und ihr habt der einen ein Talent (als Brautgabe) gegeben, so nehmt nichts von ihm fort. Wollt ihr es etwa in Verleumdung und offenbarer Sünde fortnehmen?
Stumble It!
