translator's name verse
Arberry If you do good openly or in secret or pardon an evil, surely God is All-pardoning, All-powerful.
Maududi (Even though you have the right to speak evil if you are wronged), if you keep doing good -whether openly or secretly -or at least pardon the evil (then that is the attribute of Allah). Allah is All-Pardoning and He has all the power to chastise.
Pickthall If ye do good openly or keep it secret, or forgive evil, lo! Allah is ever Forgiving, Powerful.
Sahih If [instead] you show [some] good or conceal it or pardon an offense - indeed, Allah is ever Pardoning and Competent.
Yusuf Ali Whether ye publish a good deed or conceal it or cover evil with pardon, verily Allah doth blot out (sins) and hath power (in the judgment of values).
