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

70 O you who have faith!
Be wary of Allah,
and speak upright words.
71 He shall rectify your conduct for you
and He shall forgive you your sins.
Whoever obeys Allah and His Apostle
has certainly achieved a great success.
72 Indeed We presented the Trust to the heavens
and the earth and the mountains,
but they refused to bear it,
and were apprehensive of it;
but man undertook it.
Indeed he is most unfair and senseless.
73 Allah will surely punish
the hypocrites, men and women,
and the polytheists, men and women,
and Allah will turn clemently
to the faithful, men and women,
and Allah is all-forgiving, all-merciful.

34. Sūrat Saba’ 1

In the Name of Allah,
the All-beneficent, the All-merciful.

1 All praise belongs to Allah
to whom belongs whatever is in the heavens
and whatever is in the earth.
To Him belongs all praise in the Hereafter,

1 The sūrah is named after the account of Sheba (Saba’) in verses 15-19.
