S:  Nay! were you witnesses when death visited Yaqoub, when he said to his sons:  What will you serve after me?  They said:  We will serve your God and the God of your fathers, Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq, one Allah only, and to Him do we submit.

002.134 Y:  That was a people that hath passed away.  They shall reap the fruit of what they did, and ye of what ye do!  Of their merits there is no question in your case!

P:  Those are a people who have passed away.  Theirs is that which they earned, and yours is that which ye earn.  And ye will not be asked of what they used to do.

S:  This is a people that have passed away; they shall have what they earned and you shall have what you earn, and you shall not be called upon to answer for what they did.

002.135 Y:  They say:  “Become Jews or Christians if ye would be guided (To salvation).”  Say thou:  “Nay! (I would rather) the Religion of Abraham the True, and he joined not gods with Allah.”

P:  And they say:  Be Jews or Christians, then ye will be rightly guided.  Say (unto them, O Muhammad):  Nay, but (we follow) the religion of Abraham, the upright, and he was not of the idolaters.

S:  And they say:  Be Jews or Christians, you will be on the right course.  Say:  Nay! (we follow) the religion of Ibrahim, the Hanif, and he was not one of the polytheists.

002.136 Y:  Say ye:  “We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Isma’il, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from their Lord:  We make no difference between one and another of them:  And we bow to Allah (in Islam).”

P:  Say (O Muslims):  We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, and that which the prophets received from their Lord.  We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered.

S:  Say:  We believe in Allah and (in) that which had been revealed to us, and (in) that which was revealed to Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq and Yaqoub and the tribes, and (in) that which was given to Musa and Isa, and (in) that which was given to the prophets from their Lord, we do not make any distinction between any of them, and to Him do we submit.

002.137 Y:  So if they believe as ye believe, they are indeed on the right path; but if they turn back, it is they who are in schism; but Allah will suffice thee as against them, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.

P:  And if they believe in the like of that which ye believe, then are they rightly guided.  But if they turn away, then are they in schism, and Allah will suffice thee (for defence) against them.  He is the Hearer, the Knower.

S:  If then they believe as you believe in Him, they are indeed on the right course, and if they turn back, then they are only in great opposition, so Allah will suffice you against them, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
