Quote:
{32:15} Only those believe in Our verses who, when they are reminded by them, fall down in prostration and exalt [God] with praise of their Lord, and they are not arrogant.

I suggest,
{32:14} Verily, the only ones who believe in Our signs are those who, when they are reminded of them, they fall down in prostration and sanctify the praise of their Lord, and they do not deem themselves big.

Quote:
{32:16} They arise from [their] beds; they supplicate their Lord in fear and aspiration, and from what We have provided them, they spend.

I suggest,
{32:16} Their sides refrain from the [comfort of their] beds (they wake up at night to pray); they call upon their Lord out of fear and aspiration, and from what We have provided them, they spend.

Quote:
{32:17} And no soul knows what has been hidden for them of comfort for eyes as reward for what they used to do.

I suggest,
{32:17} So, no soul knows what has been kept hidden for them of an apple of an eye, a reward for what they have been doing.
