وَٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا صُمٌّ وَبُكْمٌ فِى ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ ۗ مَن يَشَإِ ٱللَّهُ يُضْلِلْهُ وَمَن يَشَأْ يَجْعَلْهُ عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ
Wa a lla th eena ka thth aboo bi a y a tin a s ummun wabukmun fee a l thth ulum a ti man yashai All a hu yu d lilhu waman yasha yajAAalhu AAal a s ir at in mustaqeem in
And they who give the lie to Our messages are deaf and dumb, in darkness deep. Whomever God wills, He lets go astray; and whomever He wills, He places upon a straight way.32
  - Mohammad Asad

See note [4] on 14:4 .

Those who deny Our Revelations are deaf and dumb, living in many layers of darkness. Allah confounds whom He will, and guides to the Right Way whom He pleases.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Those who deny Our signs are 'wilfully' deaf and dumb- lost in darkness. Allah leaves whoever He wills to stray and guides whoever He wills to the Straight Way.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Those who deny our revelations are deaf and dumb in darkness. Whom Allah will He sendeth astray, and whom He will He placeth on a straight path.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Those who reject Our Signs are deaf and dumb in the midst of darkness profound: whom Allah willeth He leaveth to wander whom He willeth He placeth on the way that is straight. 860
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The limited free will of man makes a little difference. If he sees the Signs but shuts his ears to the true Message, and refuses (like a dumb thing) to speak out the Message which all Nature proclaims, then according to the Plan ( of his limited free-will) he must suffer and wander, just as, in the opposite case, he will receive grace and salvation.
