035.010 Y:  If any do seek for glory and power,- to Allah belong all glory and power.  To Him mount up (all) Words of Purity:  It is He Who exalts each Deed of Righteousness.  Those that lay Plots of Evil,- for them is a Penalty terrible; and the plotting of such will be void (of result).

P:  Whoso desireth power (should know that) all power belongeth to Allah.  Unto Him good words ascend, and the pious deed doth He exalt; but those who plot iniquities, theirs will be an awful doom; and the plotting of such (folk) will come to naught.

S:  Whoever desires honor, then to Allah belongs the honor wholly.  To Him do ascend the good words; and the good deeds, lift them up, and (as for) those who plan evil deeds, they shall have a severe chastisement; and (as for) their plan, it shall perish.

035.011 Y:  And Allah did create you from dust; then from a sperm-drop; then He made you in pairs.  And no female conceives, or lays down (her load), but with His knowledge.  Nor is a man long-lived granted length of days, nor is a part cut off from his life, but is in a Decree (ordained).  All this is easy to Allah.

P:  Allah created you from dust, then from a little fluid, then He made you pairs (the male and female).  No female beareth or bringeth forth save with His knowledge.  And no-one groweth old who groweth old, nor is aught lessened of his life, but it is recorded in a Book, Lo! that is easy for Allah.

S:  And Allah created you of dust, then of the life-germ, then He made you pairs; and no female bears, nor does she bring forth, except with His knowledge; and no one whose life is lengthened has his life lengthened, nor is aught diminished of one’s life, but it is all in a book; surely this is easy to Allah.

035.012 Y:  Nor are the two bodies of flowing water alike,- the one palatable, sweet, and pleasant to drink, and the other, salt and bitter.  Yet from each (kind of water) do ye eat flesh fresh and tender, and ye extract ornaments to wear; and thou seest the ships therein that plough the waves, that ye may seek (thus) of the Bounty of Allah that ye may be grateful.

P:  And the two seas are not alike:  this, fresh, sweet, good to drink, this (other) bitter, salt.  And from them both ye eat fresh meat and derive the ornament that ye wear.  And thou seest the ship cleaving them with its prow that ye may seek of His bounty, and that haply ye may give thanks.

S:  And the two seas are not alike:  the one sweet, that subdues thirst by its excessive sweetness, pleasant to drink; and the other salt, that burns by its saltness; yet from each of them you eat fresh flesh and bring forth ornaments which you wear; and you see the ships cleave through it that you may seek of His bounty and that you may be grateful.

035.013 Y:  He merges Night into Day, and he merges Day into Night, and he has subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law):  each one runs its course for a term appointed.  Such is Allah your Lord:  to Him belongs all Dominion.  And those whom ye invoke besides Him have not the least power.
