Quote:
{28:60} And whatever thing you [people] have been given - it is [only for] the enjoyment of worldly life and its adornment. And what is with God is better and more lasting; so will you not use reason?

I suggest,
{28:60} And whatever you [people] have been given of anything - it is the convenience of [this] the nearest life and its adornment. And what is with God is better and more lasting; do you not then reason?

Quote:
{28:61} Then is he whom We have promised a good promise which he will obtain like he for whom We provided enjoyment of worldly life [but] then he is, on the Day of Resurrection, among those presented [for punishment in Hell]?

I suggest,
{28:61} Is it then he whom We have promised a lovely promise, so he is receiving it, like he for whom We gave leeway of the convenience of [this] the nearest life and then he is, on the Day of Resurrection, among the arraigned?
