003.186 Y:  Ye shall certainly be tried and tested in your possessions and in your personal selves; and ye shall certainly Hear much that will grieve you, from those who received the Book before you and from those who worship many gods.  But if ye persevere patiently, and guard against evil,-then that will be a determining factor in all affairs.

P:  Assuredly ye will be tried in your property and in your persons, and ye will hear much wrong from those who were given the Scripture before you, and from the idolaters.  But if ye persevere and ward off (evil), then that is of the steadfast heart of things.

S:  You shall certainly be tried respecting your wealth and your souls, and you shall certainly hear from those who have been given the Book before you and from those who are polytheists much annoying talk; and if you are patient and guard (against evil), surely this is one of the affairs (which should be) determined upon.

003.187 Y:  And remember Allah took a covenant from the People of the Book, to make it known and clear to mankind, and not to hide it; but they threw it away behind their backs, and purchased with it some miserable gain!  And vile was the bargain they made!

P:  And (remember) when Allah laid a charge on those who had received the Scripture (He said):  Ye are to expound it to mankind and not to hide it.  But they flung it behind their backs and bought thereby a little gain.  Verily evil is that which they have gained thereby.

S:  And when Allah made a covenant with those who were given the Book:  You shall certainly make it known to men and you shall not hide it; but they cast it behind their backs and took a small price for it; so evil is that which they buy.

003.188 Y:  Think not that those who exult in what they have brought about, and love to be praised for what they have not done,- think escape the penalty.  For them is a penalty Grievous indeed.

P:  Think not that those who exult in what they have given, and love to be praised for what they have not done — Think not, they are in safety from the doom.  A painful doom is theirs.

S:  Do not think those who rejoice for what they have done and love that they should be praised for what they have not done—­ so do by no means think them to be safe from the chastisement, and they shall have a painful chastisement.

003.189 Y:  To Allah belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth; and Allah hath power over all things.

P:  Unto Allah belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth.  Allah is Able to do all things.

S:  And Allah’s is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and Allah has power over all things.

003.190 Y:  Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night and day,- there are indeed Signs for men of understanding,-

P:  Lo!  In the creation of the heavens and the earth and (in) the difference of night and day are tokens (of His Sovereignty) for men of understanding,
