And those who strive against, [who strive] to invalidate, Our verses, namely, the Qur'ān, deeming Us inomnipotent (mu'ajjizīna, a variant reading [of this] here and later on [in verse 38, below] is mu'ājizīna: [so that respectively these mean] 'deeming that We are incapable' [mu'ajjizīna], or [if read mu'ājizīna] 'vying with Us, in order to elude Us') for they suppose that there is no [such thing as] resurrection or punishment - for such there will be a chastisement of an awful punishment' (read either alīmin or alīmun [respectively] as an adjectival qualification of rijzin, 'punishment' or 'adhābun, 'chastisement').
