How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 12:20 — the whole verse this word appears in — not this word alone. The correspondence is verse-level: no word-level alignment of translations exists for these editions, so we do not claim which English word renders this Arabic word. Compare the editions →

Translation · Marmaduke Pickthall (1930)Public Domain
And they sold him for a paltry price - for some dirhems counted down, and at no high rate did they value him

and they sold by a price a paltry dirhams numbered and they were in it from those attaching little worths

Generated from a table of word-by-word decisions, not written as prose. Arabic word order is preserved, so it reads stiffly and is not a substitute for a translation written by a person. Every verse is rendered, but the whole remains under review: words marked as judgement rest on weaker evidence than the rest and are flagged in place. No tafsir, hadith or existing translation was consulted.
