{3:35} [Mention, O Muhammad,] when the wife of `Imran said, "My Lord, indeed I have pledged to You what is in my womb, consecrated [for Your service], so accept this from me. Indeed, You are the Hearing, the Knowing."
I suggest,
{3:35} [Mention, O Muhammad,] when the wife of Amram said, "Lord, verily, I have pledged to You what is in my womb, consecrated (for Your service), so accept from me. Verily, You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing."Quote:
{3:36} But when she delivered her, she said, "My Lord, I have delivered a female." And God was most knowing of what she delivered, "And the male is not like the female. And I have named her Mary, and I seek refuge for her in You and [for] her descendants from Satan, the expelled [from the mercy of God]."
I suggest,
{3:36} Then once she laid her down (delivered baby Mary), she said, "Lord, I laid her down a female." And God is most knowing of what she laid down, "And the male is not like the female. And I have named her Mary, and I seek refuge for her in You and [for] her offspring from Satan, the outcast [from the mercy of God]."
