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

and remember Allah greatly.

22 But when the faithful saw the confederates,
they said,
‘This is what Allah and His Apostle had promised us,
and Allah and His Apostle were true.’
And it only increased them in faith and submission.
23 Among the faithful are men
who fulfill what they have pledged to Allah.
Of them are some who have fulfilled their pledge,
and of them are some who still wait,
and they have not changed in the least,
24 that Allah may reward the true for their truthfulness,
and punish the hypocrites, if He wishes,
or accept their repentance.
Indeed Allah is all-forgiving, all-merciful.
25 Allah sent back the faithless in their rage,
without their attaining any advantage,
and Allah spared the faithful of fighting,
and Allah is all-strong, all-mighty.
26 And He dragged down those who had backed them
from among the People of the Book
from their strongholds,
and He cast terror into their hearts,
[so that] you killed a part of them,
and took captive [another] part of them.
27 And He bequeathed you their land,
their houses and their possessions,
and a territory you had not trodden,
and Allah has power over all things.
