Have they, perchance, handed down this [way of thinking] as a legacy unto one another? Nay, they are people filled with overweening arrogance!
  - Mohammad Asad
Have they transmitted this statement from one generation to the next? Nay, but they are all a rebellious people.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Have they passed this 'cliché' down to one another? In fact, they have 'all' been a transgressing people.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Have they handed down (the saying) as an heirloom one unto another? Nay, but they are froward folk.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Is this the legacy they have transmitted one to another? Nay they are themselves a people transgressing beyond bounds! 5030
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

There is a tradition of Evil as there is a tradition of Good. The ways of Evil in dealing with the teachers of Truth are similar in all ages. But such evil traditions would have no effect, were it not that the generation following them is itself ungodly, "transgressing beyond bounds."
