Quote:
{32:18} Then is one who was a believer like one who was defiantly disobedient? They are not equal.

I suggest,
{32:18} Is then one who has been faithful like one who has been deviant? They do not equate.

Quote:
{32:20} But as for those who defiantly disobeyed, their refuge is the Fire. Every time they wish to emerge from it, they will be returned to it while it is said to them, "Taste the punishment of the Fire which you used to deny."

I suggest,
{32:20} But as for those who have deviated, their refuge is the Fire. Every time they wish to exit from it, they are returned to it and it is said to them, "Taste the torment of the Fire which you used to deny."

Quote:
{32:21} And we will surely let them taste the nearer punishment short of the greater punishment that perhaps they will repent.

I suggest,
{32:21} And We will surely make them taste the nearer torment short of the bigger torment, perhaps they would back down.
