نَّحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ نَبَأَهُم بِٱلْحَقِّ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ فِتْيَةٌ ءَامَنُوا۟ بِرَبِّهِمْ وَزِدْنَـٰهُمْ هُدًى Qur’an Al-Kahf (18:13)
Na h nu naqu ss u AAalayka nabaahum bi a l h aqqi innahum fityatun a manoo birabbihim wazidn a hum hud a n
[And now] We shall truly relate to thee their story:13 Behold, they were young men who had attained to faith in their Sustainer: and [so] We deepened their consciousness of the right way14
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

I.e., without the many legendary embellishments which, in times past, have obscured the purport of this story or parable.

Lit., "We increased [or "advanced"] them in guidance".

Now We tell you their real story. They were young men who believed in their Rabb, and on them We had bestowed Our guidance.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
We relate to you 'O Prophet' their story in truth. They were youths who truly believed in their Lord, and We increased them in guidance.
  - Mustafa Khattab

We narrate unto thee their story with truth. Lo! they were young men who believed in their Lord, and We increased them in guidance.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall

We relate to thee their story in truth: they were youths who believed in their Lord and We advanced them in guidance: 2342
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Their Faith carried them higher and higher on the road to Truth. Faith is cumulative. Each step leads higher and higher, by the grace and mercy of Allah.
