Bethink thee of the leaders of the Children of Israel after Moses, how they said unto a prophet whom they had: Set up for us a king and we will fight in Allah's way. He said: Would ye then refrain from fighting if fighting were prescribed for you? They said: Why should we not fight in Allah's way when we have been driven from our dwellings with our children? Yet, when fighting was prescribed for them, they turned away, all save a few of them. Allah is aware of evil-doers.

Have you not regarded the elite of the Israelites after Moses, when they said to their prophet, [Appoint for us a king that we may fight in the way of Allah.] He said, [May it not be that you will not fight if fighting were prescribed for you?] They said, [Why should we not fight in the way of Allah, when we have been expelled from our homes and [separated from] our children?] So when fighting was prescribed for them, they turned back except a few of them, and Allah knows well the wrongdoers.

(Muhammad), remember that group of the Israelites after Moses who demanded a Prophet of their own to appoint a king for them who would lead them in the fight for the cause of God. Their Prophet then said, [What if you are ordered to fight and you disobey?] They said, [Why should we not fight for the cause of God when we and our sons have been expelled from our homes?] However, when they were ordered to fight, all refused except a few among them. God knows well the unjust.

Have you not considered the chiefs of the children of Israel after Musa, when they said to a prophet of theirs: Raise up for us a king, (that) we may fight in the way of Allah. He said: May it not be that you would not fight if fighting is ordained for you? They said: And what reason have we that we should not fight in the way of Allah, and we have indeed been compelled to abandon our homes and our children. But when fighting was ordained for them, they turned back, except a few of them, and Allah knows the unjust.

And for when came face to face with Jaloot and his army, they said, [Our Rabb! pour upon us endurance, and make firm our feet, and help us over the nation of the denying people.] [ 2 : 250 ]
Thus overpowered themby command ofthe Oneand killedDawood,Jaloot,and gave to (Dawood),the One,the kingdomand the wisdom,and taught himof whatHe desired;and if notchargedthe One,the people,some of themregarding others,it would corruptthe Earth,butthe Onepossessesgraceuponall the states of being.
So they routed them by Allah's leave and David slew Goliath; and Allah gave him the kingdom and wisdom, and taught him of that which He willeth. And if Allah had not repelled some men by others the earth would have been corrupted. But Allah is a Lord of Kindness to (His) creatures.
- Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
Thus they routed them with Allah]s will, and David killed Goliath, and Allah gave him kingdom and wisdom and taught him whatever He liked. Were it not for Allah]s repelling the people by means of one another, the earth would surely have been corrupted; but Allah is gracious to the world]s people.
- Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
They defeated their enemy through God's will. David slew Goliath and God granted David the kingdom and wisdom and also taught him whatever He wanted. Had God not made one group of people repel the other, the earth would have become full of corruption, but God is generous to His creatures.
- Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
So they put them to flight by Allah's permission. And Dawood slew Jalut, and Allah gave him kingdom and wisdom, and taught him of what He pleased. And were it not for Allah's repelling some men with others, the earth would certainly be in a state of disorder; but Allah is Gracious to the creatures.
- Shakir, Habib
⦿
And so by the command of God they defeated them. David killed Goliath, and God gave him kingship and wisdom, and imparted to him the knowledge of whatever He willed. Had it not been for God's repelling some people by means of others, the earth would have been filled with corruption. But God is bountiful to His creatures.

نتیجہ یہ ہوا کہ ان لوگوں نے جالوت کے لشکر کو خدا کے حکم سے شکست دے دی اور داؤد علیھ السّلامنے جالوت کو قتل کردیا اور اللہ نے انہیں ملک اور حکمت عطاکردی اور اپنے علم سے جس قدر چاہا دے دیا اور اگر اسی طرح خدا بعض کو بعض سے نہ روکتا رہتا تو ساری زمین میں فساد پھیل جاتا لیکن خدا عالمین پر بڑا فضل کرنے والا ہے
- Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
آخر کا ر اللہ کے اذن سے اُنہوں نے کافروں کو مار بھگایا اور داؤدؑ نے جالوت کو قتل کر دیا اور اللہ نے اسے سلطنت اور حکمت سے نوازا اور جن جن چیزوں کا چاہا، اس کو علم دیا اگر اس طرح اللہ انسانوں کے ایک گروہ کو دوسرے گروہ کے ذریعے ہٹاتا نہ رہتا، تو زمین کا نظام بگڑ جاتا، لیکن دنیا کے لوگوں پر اللہ کا بڑا فضل ہے (کہ وہ اِس طرح دفع فساد کا انتظام کرتا رہتا ہے)
- Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
تو انہوں نے ان کو بھگا دیا اللہ کے حکم سے، اور قتل کیا داؤد نے جالوت کو اور اللہ نے اسے سلطنت اور حکمت عطا فرمائی اور اسے جو چاہا سکھایا اور اگر اللہ لوگوں میں بعض سے بعض کو دفع نہ کرے تو ضرور زمین تباہ ہوجائے مگر اللہ سارے جہان پر فضل کرنے والا ہے،

⦿
پس ان لوگوں نے خدا کے حکم سے ان لوگوں (دشمنوں) کو شکست دے دی۔ اور داؤد (ع) نے جالوت کو قتل کر دیا۔ اور خدا نے انہیں سلطنت و حکمت عطا فرمائی۔ اور جس جس چیز کا چاہا علم عطا فرمایا۔ اور اگر خدا ایک گروہ کا دوسرے گروہ کے ذریعہ سے دفاع نہ کرے تو زمین تباہ و برباد ہو جائے۔ مگر خدا تمام جہانوں پر بڑا لطف و کرم کرنے والا ہے۔

Thus overpowered them by command of the One and killed Dawood, Jaloot, and gave to (Dawood), the One, the kingdom and the wisdom, and taught him of what He desired; and if not charged the One, the people, some of them regarding others, it would corrupt the Earth, but the One possesses grace upon all the states of being.

And if Allah had so wiled it, those who followed after them would not have fought one with another after the clear proofs had come unto them.

These are the apostles, some of whom We gave an advantage over others: of them are those to whom Allah spoke and some of them He raised in rank, and We gave Jesus, son of Mary, manifest proofs and strengthened him with the Holy Spirit.

We gave some of Our Messengers preference over others. To some of them God spoke and He raised the rank of some others. We gave authoritative proofs to Jesus, son of Mary, and supported him by the Holy Spirit. Had God wanted, the generations who lived after those Messengers would not have fought each other after the authority had come to them. But they differed among themselves, some of them believed in the authority and others denied it. They would not have fought each other had God wanted, but God does as He wills.

⦿
We have made some of these apostles to excel the others among them are they to whom Allah spoke, and some of them He exalted by (many degrees of) rank; and We gave clear miracles to Isa son of Marium, and strengthened him with the holy spirit. And if Allah had pleased, those after them would not have fought one with another after clear arguments had come to them, but they disagreed; so there were some of them who believed and others who denied; and if Allah had pleased they would not have fought one with another, but Allah brings about what He intends.
- Shakir, Habib
⦿
Of these messengers, We have given something additional among them. There are some to whom God spoke directly and others He exalted in rank. We gave Jesus, son of Mary clear signs, and strengthened him with the holy spirit. Had God pleased, those who succeeded them would not have fought against one another after the clear signs had come to them. But they disagreed among themselves; some believed, while others did not. Yet had God willed, they would not have fought against one another; but God does whatever He wills.

This website is a work of passion. It exists only for a couple of reasons:
1) I wanted to understand the Book without involving any second-party sources of guidance i.e. exegesis, or Asbab-e-Nuzul, or extra-Quranic ahadith, etc. 2) You must also know what the bare truth is, so we can work together.
Because the process must be transparent, the entire website is available for you to download. You can go through the code, and if you can make any improvements to this process, you are most welcome to. It is a humble request to update me regarding the improvements so I can also update myself.
Due Credits:
This website was possible by help of many people and forums who helped me to learn Arabic, Philosophy, Law, Psychology, and PHP and other Web scripts. To be honest, I do not even know the names of many but I did learn from them. Some of these people were already dead by the time I read their input.
The entire code of this website is available for the same reason, that what they taught me, I can only pay it forward.
The Arabic text of the Quran was obtained from Tanzil. The additional translations were also obtained from Tanzil from this link.
The social-sharing images of verses were obtained from Legacy Quran.com, and were then resized for proper social-media display.
