The Qur'an answers this question itself, in Chapter 43, Verse 3: "Indeed, We have made it an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand."
The message of God revealed through Muhammad (S) was initially told to the Arabs, in Saudi Arabia. No one would understand the Qur'an and what God was trying to say if it was revealed in another language, as the Arabs of Mecca and Madinah spoke the Arabic language. Today, the Arabic language is spoken by over 200 million people and there are numerous translations of the original text in all languages, so that all of mankind can understand.
