I love Daryabadi's translation of والغوا فيه as "and babble therein". I suggest,
{41:26} And those who have disbelieved said, "Do not listen to this Quran and babble therein, that perhaps you will prevail."

Quote:
{41:27} But We will surely cause those who disbelieve to taste a severe punishment, and We will surely recompense them for the worst of what they had been doing.

I suggest,
{41:27} But We will surely cause those who have disbelieved to taste a severe torment, and We will surely recompense them for the worst of what they had been doing.

Quote:
{41:28} That is the recompense of the enemies of God - the Fire. For them therein is the home of eternity as recompense for what they, of Our verses, were rejecting.

I suggest,
{41:28} That is the recompense of the enemies of God - the Fire. For them therein is the home of eternity as recompense for what they, of Our signs, were denying.

Quote:
{41:29} And those who disbelieved will [then] say, "Our Lord, show us those who misled us of the jinn and men [so] we may put them under our feet that they will be among the lowest."

I suggest,
{41:29} And those who have disbelieved will say, "Our Lord, show us the two who misled us of the sprites and men [so] we may set them under our feet that they will be among the lowest."
