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

from your Lord;
but Allah singles out for His mercy
whomever He wishes,
and Allah is dispenser of a mighty grace.

106 For any verse that We abrogate
or remove from memories,
We bring another which is better than it,
or similar to it.
Do you not know that Allah
has power over all things?
107 Do you not know that to Allah belongs
the kingdom of the heavens and the earth?
And besides Allah you do not have
any guardian or any helper.

108 Would you question your Apostle
as Moses was questioned formerly?
Whoever changes faith for unfaith
certainly strays from the right way.

109 Many of the People of the Book are eager
to turn you into unbelievers after your faith,
out of their inner envy,
[and] after the truth had become manifest to them.
Yet excuse [them] and forbear
until Allah issues His edict.
Indeed Allah has power over all things.
110 And maintain the prayer and give the zakāt.
Any good that you send ahead for your souls,
