{22:17} Indeed, those who have believed and those who were Jews and the Sabeans and the Christians and the Magians and those who associated with God - God will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed God is, over all things, Witness.

I suggest,
{22:17} Verily, those who have believed, those who came back and apologized (the Jews), the Sabeans, the Christians, the Magi and those who associated [others with God in worship] - Verily, God distinguishes between them on the Day of Resurrection. Verily, God is, over everything, Witness.

Quote:
{22:18} Do you not see that to God prostrates whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth and the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the moving creatures and many of the people? But upon many the punishment has been justified. And he whom God humiliates - for him there is no bestower of honor. Indeed, God does what He wills.

I suggest,
{22:18} Have you not seen that [it is] God to whom prostrates whoever is in the heavens, whoever is in the earth, the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the moving creatures and many of the people? But upon many has been deserved the torment. And he whom God humiliates - then for him there is no ennobler. Verily, God does what He wants.
