surah Ibrahim aya 4 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِهِ لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ ۖ فَيُضِلُّ اللَّهُ مَن يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي مَن يَشَاءُ ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ﴾
[ إبراهيم: 4]
14:4 And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language of his people to state clearly for them, and Allah sends astray [thereby] whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishWe did not send any messenger except that We sent him speaking the language of his people, so that they could easily understand what he brought from Allah.
We did not send him to compel them to have faith in Allah, for Allah misguides whoever He wills out of His justice, and guides whoever He wills through His grace.
He is the Mighty, whom no one can overpower, and the Wise in His creation and planning.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And We sent not a Messenger except with the language of his people, in order that he might make (the Message) clear for them. Then Allah misleads whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

Wama arsalna min rasoolin illa bilisani qawmihi liyubayyina lahum fayudillu Allahu man yashao wayahdee man yashao wahuwa alAAazeezu alhakeemu
Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
We sent not a messenger except (to teach) in the language of his (own) people, in order to make (things) clear to them. Now Allah leaves straying those whom He pleases and guides whom He pleases: and He is Exalted in power, full of Wisdom.
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
And We sent not a Messenger except with the language of his people, in order that he might make (the Message) clear for them. Then Allah misleads whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
14:4 And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language translate in arabic
وما أرسلنا من رسول إلا بلسان قومه ليبين لهم فيضل الله من يشاء ويهدي من يشاء وهو العزيز الحكيم
سورة: إبراهيم - آية: ( 4 ) - جزء: ( 13 ) - صفحة: ( 255 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
We never sent a Messenger, to a people, who did not master their tongue so that he makes himself understood, distinctly expressing all that is meant leaving nothing merely implied. There and then does Allah misguide whom He will and guides to His path of righteousness whom He will, and He is the AL-Aziz (the Almighty) and AL-Hakim (the Source of wisdom and wise mysterious dispensations)
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(14:4) Whenever We sent a Messenger' to convey Our Message, he delivered it in the language of his people so that he may make it plain to them. *5 Then Allah lets go astray whomsoever He wills and shows Guidance to whomsoever He desires: *6 `He is All-Powerful, All-Wise. *7
And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language meaning
*5) This implies two things: First, AIIah sent down His Message in the language of the people from among whom a Prophet was raised so that they might not have any excuse left that they could not understand the language of the Message. Secondly, this ruled out the presumption that a Messenger was ever given the Message in a different language merely for the sake of a miracle. For Allah considered it more important to make the people understand the Message and guide them rightly than to satisfy their curiosity. Obviously the purpose could best be served only if the Message was sent down to them in their own language by their Prophet and not in any other.
*6) That is, "Although the Messenger conveys the Message in the mother tongue of the people, which is understood by everyone of them, yet all of them are not guided aright. This happens because of the fact that aII of those who understand a Message do not necessarily accept it. For it is entirely with AIIah to show guidance by means of His Message to anyone He wills and to Iet go astray anyone inspite of it."
*7) As Allah is All-Powerful, no one is able by oneself to get guidance or to go astray, for none is completely independent but is under the power of AIlah. But as He is AlI-Wise, He does not use His power blindly so as to show guidance to anyone He wills and to Iet go astray anyone He desires without rhyme or reason. In fact, the one who gets guidance from Him gets it on merit and the one who is let go astray is deprived of guidance because he himself deliberately chooses deviation.
And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language meaning in Urdu
ہم نے اپنا پیغام دینے کے لیے جب کبھی کوئی رسول بھیجا ہے، اُس نے اپنی قوم ہی کی زبان میں پیغام دیا ہے تاکہ وہ انہیں اچھی طرح کھول کر بات سمجھائے پھر اللہ جسے چاہتا ہے بھٹکا دیتا ہے اور جسے چاہتا ہے ہدایت بخشتا ہے، وہ بالا دست اور حکیم ہے
