S:  And if you take your turn, then retaliate with the like of that with which you were afflicted; but if you are patient, it will certainly be best for those who are patient.

016.127 Y:  And do thou be patient, for thy patience is but from Allah; nor grieve over them:  and distress not thyself because of their plots.

P:  Endure thou patiently (O Muhammad).  Thine endurance is only by (the help of) Allah.  Grieve not for them, and be not in distress because of that which they devise.

S:  And be patient and your patience is not but by (the assistance of) Allah, and grieve not for them, and do not distress yourself at what they plan.

016.128 Y:  For Allah is with those who restrain themselves, and those who do good.

P:  Lo!  Allah is with those who keep their duty unto Him and those who are doers of good.

S:  Surely Allah is with those who guard (against evil) and those who do good (to others).
