Ali Quli Qarai, The Qur’ān with a Phrase-by-Phrase English Translation (2005)
and Allah is all-knowing, all-wise.
171 O People of the Book!
Do not exceed the bounds in your religion,
and do not attribute anything to Allah
except the truth.
The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only
an apostle of Allah,
and His Word that He cast toward Mary
and a spirit from Him.
So have faith in Allah and His apostles,
and do not say, ‘[God is] a trinity.’
Relinquish [such a creed]! That is better for you.
Allah is but the One God.
He is far too immaculate to have any son.
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens
and whatever is on the earth,
and Allah suffices as trustee.
172 The Messiah would never disdain
being a servant of Allah,
nor would the angels brought near [to Him].
And whoever disdains His worship
and is arrogant,
He will gather them all toward Him.
173 As for those who have faith
and do righteous deeds,
He will pay them in full their rewards,
and He will enhance them out of His grace.
But those who are disdainful and arrogant,
He will punish them with a painful punishment,
and they will not find besides Allah
