Yusuf Ali
If Allah were to punish men for their wrong-doing, He would not leave, on the (earth), a single living creature: but He gives them respite for a stated Term: When their Term expires, they would not be able to delay (the punishment) for a single hour, just as they would not be able to anticipate it (for a single hour).
Sahih International
And if Allah were to impose blame on the people for their wrongdoing, He would not have left upon the earth any creature, but He defers them for a specified term. And when their term has come, they will not remain behind an hour, nor will they precede [it].
Shakir
And if Allah had destroyed men for their iniquity, He would not leave on the earth a single creature, but He respites them till an appointed time; so when their doom will come they shall not be able to delay (it) an hour nor can they bring (it) on (before its time).
Pickthall
If Allah were to take mankind to task for their wrong-doing, he would not leave hereon a living creature, but He reprieveth them to an appointed term, and when their term cometh they cannot put (it) off an hour nor (yet) advance (it).
محمد جالندھری
اور اگر خدا لوگوں کو ان کے ظلم کے سبب پکڑنے لگے تو ایک جاندار کو زمین پر نہ چھوڑے لیکن ان کو ایک وقت مقرر تک مہلت دیئے جاتا ہے۔ جب وہ وقت آجاتا ہے تو ایک گھڑی نہ پیچھے رہ سکتے ہیں نہ آگے بڑھ سکتے ہیں
