وَلَوْ And if جَعَلْنَـٰهُ We (had) made it قُرْءَانًا a Quran أَعْجَمِيًّۭا (in) a foreign (language) لَّقَالُوا۟ they (would have) said لَوْلَا Why not فُصِّلَتْ are explained in detail ءَايَـٰتُهُۥٓ ۖ its verses ءَا۬عْجَمِىٌّۭ (Is it) a foreign (language) وَعَرَبِىٌّۭ ۗ and an Arab قُلْ Say هُوَ It (is) لِلَّذِينَ for those who ءَامَنُوا۟ believe هُدًۭى a guidance وَشِفَآءٌۭ ۖ and a healing وَٱلَّذِينَ And those who لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe فِىٓ in ءَاذَانِهِمْ their ears وَقْرٌۭ (is) deafness وَهُوَ and it عَلَيْهِمْ (is) for them عَمًى ۚ blindness أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Those يُنَادَوْنَ are being called مِن from مَّكَانٍۭ a place بَعِيدٍۢ far ٤٤
And if We had made it a foreign [i.e., non-Arabic] Qur’ān, they would have said, "Why are its verses not explained in detail [in our language]? Is it a foreign [recitation] and an Arab [messenger]?" Say, "It is, for those who believe, a guidance and cure." And those who do not believe - in their ears is deafness, and it is upon them blindness. Those are being called from a distant place.

وَلَقَدْ And certainly ءَاتَيْنَا We gave مُوسَى Musa ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book فَٱخْتُلِفَ but disputes arose فِيهِ ۗ therein وَلَوْلَا And had it not been كَلِمَةٌۭ (for) a word سَبَقَتْ (that) preceded مِن from رَّبِّكَ your Lord لَقُضِىَ surely, would have been settled بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ between them وَإِنَّهُمْ But indeed, they لَفِى surely (are) in شَكٍّۢ doubt مِّنْهُ about it مُرِيبٍۢ disquieting ٤٥
And We had already given Moses the Scripture, but it came under disagreement. And if not for a word [i.e., decree] that preceded from your Lord, it would have been concluded between them. And indeed they are, concerning it [i.e., the Qur’ān], in disquieting doubt.

۞ إِلَيْهِ To Him يُرَدُّ is referred عِلْمُ (the) knowledge ٱلسَّاعَةِ ۚ (of) the Hour وَمَا And not تَخْرُجُ comes out مِن any ثَمَرَٰتٍۢ fruits مِّنْ from أَكْمَامِهَا their coverings وَمَا and not تَحْمِلُ bears مِنْ any أُنثَىٰ female وَلَا and not تَضَعُ gives birth إِلَّا except بِعِلْمِهِۦ ۚ with His knowledge وَيَوْمَ And (the) Day يُنَادِيهِمْ He will call them أَيْنَ Where (are) شُرَكَآءِى My partners قَالُوٓا۟ They will say ءَاذَنَّـٰكَ We announce (to) You مَا not مِنَّا among us مِن any شَهِيدٍۢ witness ٤٧
To Him [alone] is attributed knowledge of the Hour. And fruits emerge not from their coverings nor does a female conceive or give birth except with His knowledge. And the Day He will call to them, "Where are My 'partners'?" they will say, "We announce to You that there is [no longer] among us any witness [to that]."

وَلَئِنْ And verily, if أَذَقْنَـٰهُ We let him taste رَحْمَةًۭ mercy مِّنَّا from Us مِنۢ after بَعْدِ after ضَرَّآءَ an adversity مَسَّتْهُ (has) touched him لَيَقُولَنَّ he will surely say هَـٰذَا This (is) لِى (due) to me وَمَآ and not أَظُنُّ I think ٱلسَّاعَةَ the Hour قَآئِمَةًۭ (will be) established وَلَئِن and if رُّجِعْتُ I am returned إِلَىٰ to رَبِّىٓ my Lord إِنَّ indeed لِى for me عِندَهُۥ with Him لَلْحُسْنَىٰ ۚ (will be) the best فَلَنُنَبِّئَنَّ But We will surely inform ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved بِمَا about what عَمِلُوا۟ they did وَلَنُذِيقَنَّهُم and We will surely make them taste مِّنْ of عَذَابٍ a punishment غَلِيظٍۢ severe ٥٠
And if We let him taste mercy from Us after an adversity which has touched him, he will surely say, "This is [due] to me, and I do not think the Hour will occur; and [even] if I should be returned to my Lord, indeed, for me there will be with Him the best." But We will surely inform those who disbelieved about what they did, and We will surely make them taste a massive punishment.
