{31:27} And if whatever trees upon the earth were pens and the sea [was ink], replenished thereafter by seven [more] seas, the words of God would not be exhausted. Indeed, God is Exalted in Might and Wise.

I suggest,
{31:27} And if [all] in the earth of trees were pens and sea supplies it [with ink], thereafter seven [more] seas [replenish it], the Words of God would not run out. Verily, God is Almighty and Wise.

Quote:
{31:28} Your creation and your resurrection will not be but as that of a single soul. Indeed, God is Hearing and Seeing.

I suggest,
{31:28} Neither your creation nor your send-off (resurrection) is but like one soul. Verily, God is a keen Listener and an acute Seer.
