Sahih International
Allah has not taken any son, nor has there ever been with Him any deity. [If
there had been], then each deity would have taken what it created, and some of
them would have sought to overcome others. Exalted is Allah above what they
describe [concerning Him].
Muhsin Khan
No son (or offspring or children) did Allah beget, nor is there any ilah (god)
along with Him; (if there had been many gods), behold, each god would have taken
away what he had created, and some would have tried to overcome others!
Glorified be Allah above all that they attribute to Him!
Pickthall
Allah hath not chosen any son, nor is there any god along with Him; else would
each god have assuredly championed that which he created, and some of them would
assuredly have overcome others. Glorified be Allah above all that they allege.
Yusuf Ali
No son did Allah beget, nor is there any god along with Him: (if there were many
gods), behold, each god would have taken away what he had created, and some
would have lorded it over others! Glory to Allah! (He is free) from the (sort
of) things they attribute to Him!
Shakir
Never did Allah take to Himself a son, and never was there with him any (other)
god-- in that case would each god have certainly taken away what he created, and
some of them would certainly have overpowered others; glory be to Allah above
what they describe!
Dr. Ghali
In no way has Allah taken to Him any child, and in no way has there been with
Him any god. Lo, for that each god would indeed have gone away with whatever he
created, and some of them would indeed have exalted themselves over others.
(Literally: over some (others) All Extolment be to Allah over whatever they
describe.
