Yusuf Ali
Set forth to them the similitude of the life of this world: It is like the rain which we send down from the skies: the earth´s vegetation absorbs it, but soon it becomes dry stubble, which the winds do scatter: it is (only) Allah who prevails over all things.

Sahih International
And present to them the example of the life of this world, [its being] like rain which We send down from the sky, and the vegetation of the earth mingles with it and [then] it becomes dry remnants, scattered by the winds. And Allah is ever, over all things, Perfect in Ability.

Shakir
And set forth to them parable of the life of this world: like water which We send down from the cloud so the herbage of the earth becomes tangled on account of it, then it becomes dry broken into pieces which the winds scatter; and Allah is the holder of power over all things.

Pickthall
And coin for them the similitude of the life of the world as water which We send down from the sky, and the vegetation of the earth mingleth with it and then becometh dry twigs that the winds scatter. Allah is able to do all things.

محمد جالندھری
اور ان سے دنیا کی زندگی کی مثال بھی بیان کردو (وہ ایسی ہے) جیسے پانی جسے ہم نے آسمان سے برسایا۔ تو اس کے ساتھ زمین کی روئیدگی مل گئی۔ پھر وہ چورا چورا ہوگئی کہ ہوائیں اسے اڑاتی پھرتی ہیں۔ اور خدا تو ہر چیز پر قدرت رکھتا ہے
