قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّیْ وَهَنَ الْعَظْمُ مِنِّیْ وَ اشْتَعَلَ الرَّاْسُ شَیْبًا وَّ لَمْ اَكُنْۢ بِدُعَآىٕكَ رَبِّ شَقِیًّا(۴)
And said: "O my Lord, my bones decay, my head is white and hoary, yet in calling You, O Lord, I have never been deprived.
Praying: "O my Lord! infirm indeed are my bones, and the hair of my head doth glisten with grey: but never am I unblest, O my Lord, in my prayer to Thee!
وَ اِنِّیْ خِفْتُ الْمَوَالِیَ مِنْ وَّرَآءِیْ وَ كَانَتِ امْرَاَتِیْ عَاقِرًا فَهَبْ لِیْ مِنْ لَّدُنْكَ وَلِیًّاۙ(۵)

یٰزَكَرِیَّاۤ اِنَّا نُبَشِّرُكَ بِغُلٰمِ-ﹰاسْمُهٗ یَحْیٰىۙ-لَمْ نَجْعَلْ لَّهٗ مِنْ قَبْلُ سَمِیًّا(۷)
"O Zachariah," (it was) said, "We give you good news of a son by name of John.´ To none have We attributed the name before."
(His prayer was answered): "O Zakariya! We give thee good news of a son: His name shall be Yahya: on none by that name have We conferred distinction before."
قَالَ رَبِّ اَنّٰى یَكُوْنُ لِیْ غُلٰمٌ وَّ كَانَتِ امْرَاَتِیْ عَاقِرًا وَّ قَدْ بَلَغْتُ مِنَ الْكِبَرِ عِتِیًّا(۸)

(The angel) answered: "Thus will it be. Your Lord said: ´This is easy for Me; for when I brought you into being you were nothing.´
He said: "So (it will be) thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: I did indeed create thee before, when thou hadst been nothing!'"
قَالَ رَبِّ اجْعَلْ لِّیْۤ اٰیَةًؕ-قَالَ اٰیَتُكَ اَلَّا تُكَلِّمَ النَّاسَ ثَلٰثَ لَیَالٍ سَوِیًّا(۱۰)
He said: "O Lord, give me a token." "Though sound," He answered, "you will not talk to any one for three nights running."
(Zakariya) said: "O my Lord! give me a Sign." "Thy Sign," was the answer, "Shall be that thou shalt speak to no man for three nights, although thou art not dumb."
فَخَرَ جَ عَلٰى قَوْمِهٖ مِنَ الْمِحْرَابِ فَاَوْحٰۤى اِلَیْهِمْ اَنْ سَبِّحُوْا بُكْرَةً وَّ عَشِیًّا(۱۱)

ذٰلِكَ عِیْسَى ابْنُ مَرْیَمَۚ-قَوْلَ الْحَقِّ الَّذِیْ فِیْهِ یَمْتَرُوْنَ(۳۴)
This was Jesus, son of Mary: A true account they contend about.
Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary: (it is) a statement of truth, about which they (vainly) dispute.
مَا كَانَ لِلّٰهِ اَنْ یَّتَّخِذَ مِنْ وَّلَدٍۙ-سُبْحٰنَهٗؕ-اِذَا قَضٰۤى اَمْرًا فَاِنَّمَا یَقُوْلُ لَهٗ كُنْ فَیَكُوْنُؕ(۳۵)
It does not behove God to have a son. Too immaculate is He! When He decrees a thing He has only to say: "Be", and it is.
It is not befitting to (the majesty of) Allah that He should beget a son. Glory be to Him! when He determines a matter, He only says to it, "Be", and it is.
وَ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَبِّیْ وَ رَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوْهُؕ-هٰذَا صِرَاطٌ مُّسْتَقِیْمٌ(۳۶)
(Jesus only said:) "Surely God is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. This is the straight path."
Verily Allah is my Lord and your Lord: Him therefore serve ye: this is a Way that is straight.
فَاخْتَلَفَ الْاَحْزَابُ مِنْۢ بَیْنِهِمْۚ-فَوَیْلٌ لِّلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ مَّشْهَدِ یَوْمٍ عَظِیْمٍ(۳۷)
Yet the sectarians differed among themselves. Alas for the unbelievers when they see the Terrible Day!
But the sects differ among themselves: and woe to the unbelievers because of the (coming) Judgment of a Momentous Day!
اَسْمِعْ بِهِمْ وَ اَبْصِرْۙ-یَوْمَ یَاْتُوْنَنَا لٰكِنِ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ الْیَوْمَ فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِیْنٍ(۳۸)
How keenly would they hear and see when they come before Us then, even though today the evil-doers are lost in palpable error.
How plainly will they see and hear, the Day that they will appear before Us! but the unjust today are in error manifest!
وَ اَنْذِرْهُمْ یَوْمَ الْحَسْرَةِ اِذْ قُضِیَ الْاَمْرُۘ-وَ هُمْ فِیْ غَفْلَةٍ وَّ هُمْ لَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ(۳۹)
Warn them of that day of pining when all matters will have been settled, though they would still be unaware and unbelieving (of the truth).
But warn them of the Day of Distress, when the matter will be determined: for (behold,) they are negligent and they do not believe!
