Sahih International
And of His signs is that you see the earth stilled, but when We send down upon it rain, it quivers and grows. Indeed, He who has given it life is the Giver of Life to the dead. Indeed, He is over all things competent.

Yusuf Ali
And among His Signs in this: thou seest the earth barren and desolate; but when We send down rain to it, it is stirred to life and yields increase. Truly, He Who gives life to the (dead) earth can surely give life to (men) who are dead. For He has power over all things.

Abul Ala Maududi
And of His Signs is that you see the earth withered, then We send down water upon it, and lo! it quivers and swells. Surely He Who gives life to the dead earth will also give life to the dead. Surely He has power over everything.

Muhsin Khan
And among His Signs (in this), that you see the earth barren, but when We send down water (rain) to it, it is stirred to life and growth (of vegetations). Verily, He Who gives it life, surely, (He) is Able to give life to the dead (on the Day of Resurrection). Indeed! He is Able to do all things.

Pickthall
And of His portents (is this): that thou seest the earth lowly, but when We send down water thereon it thrilleth and groweth. Lo! He Who quickeneth it is verily the Quickener of the Dead. Lo! He is Able to do all things.

Dr. Ghali
And of His signs is that you see the earth submissive. Then when We send down water upon it, it shakes and swells. Surely He Who gives life to it is indeed He Who gives life to the dead; surely He is Ever-Determiner over everything.

Abdel Haleem
Another of His signs is this: you see the earth lying desolate, but when We send water down on to it, it stirs and grows. He who gives it life will certainly give life to the dead. He has power over everything.

Muhammad Junagarhi
اس اللہ کی نشانیوں میں سے (یہ بھی) ہے کہ تو زمین کو دبی دبائی دیکھتا ہے پھر جب ہم اس پر مینہ برساتے ہیں تو وه تر وتازه ہوکر ابھرنے لگتی ہے جس نے اسے زنده کیا وہی یقینی طور پر مُردوں کو بھی زنده کرنے واﻻ ہے، بیشک وه ہر (ہر) چیز پر قادر ہے
