ﱁThatﱂ(is) from whatﱃ(was) revealedﱄto youﱅ(from) your Lordﱆofﱇﱈthe wisdomﱉAnd (do) notﱊmakeﱋwithﱌAllahﱍgodﱎotherﱏlest you should be thrownﱐinﱑHellﱒblameworthyﱓabandonedﱔ(39)

This is part of the wisdom which your Lord has revealed to you ˹O Prophet˺. And do not set up any other god with Allah ˹O humanity˺, or you will be cast into Hell, blameworthy, rejected.

17:40

ﱕThen has your Lord chosen (for) youﱖThen has your Lord chosen (for) youﱗsonsﱘand He has takenﱙfromﱚthe AngelsﱛﱜdaughtersﱝIndeed, youﱞsurely sayﱟa wordﱠgraveﱡ(40)

Has your Lord favoured you ˹pagans˺ with sons and taken angels as ˹His˺ daughters?1 You are truly making an outrageous claim.

17:41

ﱢAnd verilyﱣWe have explainedﱤinﱥthisﱦthe Quranﱧthat they may take heedﱨbut notﱩit increases themﱪexceptﱫ(in) aversionﱬ(41)

We have surely varied ˹the signs˺ in this Quran so perhaps they may be mindful, but it only drives them farther away.

17:42

ﱭSayﱮIfﱯ(there) wereﱰwith Himﱱgodsﱲasﱳthey sayﱴthenﱵsurely they (would) have soughtﱶtoﱷ(the) Ownerﱸ(of) the Throneﱹa wayﱺ(42)

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Had there been other gods besides Him—as they claim—then they would have certainly sought a way to ˹challenge˺ the Lord of the Throne.”

17:43

ﱻGlorified is Heﱼand Exalted is Heﱽabove whatﱾthey sayﱿ(by) heightﲀgreatﲁ(43)

Glorified and Highly Exalted is He above what they claim!

17:44

ﲂGlorifyﲃ[to] Himﲄthe seven heavensﲅthe seven heavensﲆand the earthﲇand whateverﲈﲉ(is) in themﲊAnd (there is) notﲋanyﲌthingﲍexceptﲎglorifiesﲏHis Praiseﲐbutﲑnotﲒyou understandﲓﲔtheir glorificationﲕIndeed, HeﲖisﲗEver-ForbearingﲘOft-Forgivingﲙ(44)

The seven heavens, the earth, and all those in them glorify Him. There is not a single thing that does not glorify His praises—but you ˹simply˺ cannot comprehend their glorification. He is indeed Most Forbearing, All-Forgiving.

17:45

ﲚAnd whenﲛyou reciteﲜthe QuranﲝWe placeﲞbetween youﲟand betweenﲠthose whoﲡ(do) notﲢbelieveﲣin the Hereafterﲤa barrierﲥhiddenﲦ(45)

When you ˹O Prophet˺ recite the Quran, We put a hidden barrier between you and those who do not believe in the Hereafter.

17:46

ﲧAnd We have placedﲨoverﲩtheir heartsﲪcoveringsﲫlestﲬthey understand itﲭand inﲮtheir earsﲯﲰdeafnessﲱAnd whenﲲyou mentionﲳyour Lordﲴinﲵthe QuranﲶAloneﲷthey turnﲸonﲹtheir backsﲺ(in) aversionﲻ(46)

We have cast veils over their hearts—leaving them unable to comprehend it—and deafness in their ears. And when you mention your Lord alone in the Quran, they turn their backs in aversion.

17:47

ﲼWeﲽknow bestﲾ[of] whatﲿthey listenﳀto [it]ﳁwhenﳂthey listenﳃto youﳄand whenﳅtheyﳆ(are) in private conversationﳇwhenﳈsayﳉthe wrongdoersﳊNotﳋyou followﳌbutﳍa manﳎbewitchedﳏ(47)

We know best how they listen to your recitation and what they say privately—when the wrongdoers say, “You would only be following a bewitched man.”

17:48

ﳐSeeﳑhowﳒthey put forthﳓfor youﳔthe examplesﳕbut they have gone astrayﳖso notﳗthey canﳘ(find) a wayﳙ(48)

See how they call you names ˹O Prophet˺!1 So they have gone so ˹far˺ astray that they cannot find the ˹Right˺ Way.

17:49

ﳚAnd they sayﳛIs it whenﳜwe areﳝbonesﳞand crumbled particlesﳟwill weﳠsurely (be) resurrectedﳡ(as) a creationﳢnewﳣ(49)

And they say ˹mockingly˺, “When we are reduced to bones and ashes, will we really be raised as a new creation?”
