Ali Quli Qarai, The Qur’ān with a Phrase-by-Phrase English Translation (2005)

23 Those who have faith and do righteous deeds
will be admitted
into gardens with streams running in them,
to remain in them [forever],
by the leave of their Lord.
Their greeting therein will be ‘Peace!’

24 Have you not regarded
how Allah has drawn a parable?
A good word is like a good tree:
its roots are steady
and its branches are in the sky.
25 It gives its fruit every season
by the leave of its Lord.
Allah draws these parables for mankind
so that they may take admonition.
26 And the parable of a bad word
is that of a bad tree:
uprooted from the ground,
it has no stability.
27 Allah fortifies those who have faith
with an immutable word
in the life of this world
and in the Hereafter,
and Allah leads astray the wrongdoers,
and Allah does whatever He wishes.

28 Have you not regarded those who have changed
Allah’s blessing with ingratitude,
and landed their people in the house of ruin?
