Quote:
{39:45} And when God is mentioned alone, the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter shrink with aversion, but when those [worshipped] other than Him are mentioned, immediately they rejoice.

I suggest,
{39:45} And when God is mentioned alone, the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter shudder, but when those other than Him are mentioned, lo!, they rejoice.

Quote:
{39:46} Say, "O God, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, You will judge between your servants concerning that over which they used to differ."

I suggest,
{39:46} Say, "O God, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the Beyond and the witnessed, You will judge between your worshipers concerning that over which they have been disputing."

Quote:
{39:47} And if those who did wrong had all that is in the earth entirely and the like of it with it, they would [attempt to] ransom themselves thereby from the worst of the punishment on the Day of Resurrection. And there will appear to them from God that which they had not taken into account.

I suggest,
{39:47} And if those who did wrong have what is in the earth entirely and the like of it with it, they would ransom themselves thereby from the dire of the torment [on] the Day of Resurrection. And there will surface to them from God what they had not taken into account.

Quote:
{39:48} And there will appear to them the evils they had earned, and they will be enveloped by what they used to ridicule.

I suggest,
{39:48} And there will appear to them the evils they had earned, and will envelope them what they used to ridicule.
