Make trial of orphans until they reach the age of marriage; if then ye find sound judgment in them, release their property to them; but consume it not wastefully, nor in haste against their growing up. If the guardian is well-off, Let him claim no remuneration, but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable. When ye release their property to them, take witnesses in their presence: But all-sufficient is Allah in taking account.
Mufti Taqi Usmani
Test the orphans until they reach the marriageable age. Then, if you perceive in them proper understanding, hand their property over to them, and do not consume it extravagantly and hastily, lest they should grow up. Whoever is rich should abstain (from using it for himself), and whoever is poor may have from it (to the extent of his necessary need) with fairness. So, when you hand their property over to them, make witnesses upon them. Allah is sufficient for reckoning
Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall
Prove orphans till they reach the marriageable age; then, if ye find them of sound judgment, deliver over unto them their fortune; and devour it not squandering and in haste lest they should grow up. Whoso (of the guardians) is rich, let him abstain generously (from taking of the property of orphans); and whoso is poor let him take thereof in reason (for his guardianship). And when ye deliver up their fortune unto orphans, have (the transaction) witnessed in their presence. Allah sufficeth as a Reckoner.
Sahih International
And test the orphans [in their abilities] until they reach marriageable age. Then if you perceive in them sound judgement, release their property to them. And do not consume it excessively and quickly, [anticipating] that they will grow up. And whoever, [when acting as guardian], is self-sufficient should refrain [from taking a fee]; and whoever is poor - let him take according to what is acceptable. Then when you release their property to them, bring witnesses upon them. And sufficient is Allah as Accountant.

Et éprouvez (la capacité) des orphelins jusqu'à ce qu'ils atteignent (l'aptitude) au mariage; et si vous ressentez en eux une bonne conduite, remettez-leur leurs biens. Ne les utilisez pas (dans votre intérêt) avec gaspillage et dissipation, avant qu'ils ne grandissent. Quiconque est aisé devrait s'abstenir de se payer lui-même de cet héritage qui lui est confié. S'il est pauvre, alors qu'il y puise une quantité convenable, à titre de rémunération de tuteur.) est aisé, qu'il s'abstienne d'en prendre lui-même. S'il est pauvre, alors qu'il en utilise raisonnablement: et lorsque vous leur remettez leurs biens, prenez des témoins à leur encontre. Mais Allah suffit pour observer et compter.
Испытывайте сирот, пока они не достигнут брачного возраста. Если обнаружите в них зрелый разум, то отдавайте им их имущество. Не пожирайте его, расточительствуя, в спешке, пока они не вырастут. Кто богат, пусть воздержится, а кто беден, пусть ест по справедливости. Когда вы отдаете им их имущество, то делайте это в присутствии свидетелей. Но довольно того, что Аллах ведет счет.
Portugese
Custodiai os órfãos, até que cheguem a idades núbeis. Se porventura observardes amadurecimento neles, entregai-lhes, então, os patrimônios; porém, abstende-vos de consumi-los desperdiçada e apressadamente, (temendo) que alcancem a maioridade. Quem for rico, que se abstenha de usá-los; mas, quem for pobre, que disponha deles com moderação.
German
Und prüft die Waisen, bis sie die Ehereife erreicht haben; und wenn ihr in ihnen Vernunft wahrnehmt, so händigt ihnen ihr Gut aus. Und zehrt nicht auf verschwenderisch und in Eile (in der Erwartung), daß sie nicht großjährig würden. Und wer (als Vormund) reich ist, der soll sich zurückhalten, und wer arm ist, der soll nach Billigkeit zehren. Und wenn ihr ihnen ihr Gut aushändigt, lasset dies vor ihnen bezeugen. Es genügt jedoch, daß Allah die Rechenschaft vornimmt.
