Quote:
{33:4} God has not made for a man two hearts in his interior. And He has not made your wives whom you declare unlawful your mothers. And he has not made your adopted sons your [true] sons. That is [merely] your saying by your mouths, but God says the truth, and He guides to the [right] way.

I suggest,
{33:4} God has not set for a man two hearts in his hollow. And He has not made your wives, whom you desert, your mothers. And he has not made your adoptees your sons. That is [merely] your saying by your mouths, but God says the truth, and He guides to the [right] way.

Quote:
{33:5} Call them by [the names of] their fathers; it is more just in the sight of God. But if you do not know their fathers - then they are [still] your brothers in religion and those entrusted to you. And there is no blame upon you for that in which you have erred but [only for] what your hearts intended. And ever is God Forgiving and Merciful.

I suggest,
{33:5} Call them by [the names of] their fathers; it is more just in the sight of God. But if you do not know their fathers - then they are your brethren in religion and your trustors. And there is no violation upon you in what you have mistaken, but [only for] what your hearts intended. And ever is God Oft-Forgiving and Merciful.
