Quote:
{46:29} And [mention, O Muhammad], when We directed to you a few of the jinn, listening to the Quran. And when they attended it, they said, "Listen quietly." And when it was concluded, they went back to their people as warners.

I suggest,
{46:29} And [mention, O Muhammad,] when We dispatched to you a coterie of the sprites, listening to the Quran. And when they attended it, they said, "Listen attentively!" And when it was concluded, they turned to their folk, warning.

Quote:
{46:30} They said, "O our people, indeed we have heard a [recited] Book revealed after Moses confirming what was before it which guides to the truth and to a straight path.

I suggest,
{46:30} They said, "O our folk, verily, we heard a Book sent down after Moses confirming of what is before it; it guides to the truth and to a straight path."

Quote:
{46:31} O our people, respond to the Messenger of God and believe in him; God will forgive for you your sins and protect you from a painful punishment.

I suggest,
{46:31} "O our folk, respond to the caller to God and believe in him; God will forgive for you your sins and shelter you from a painful torment."

Quote:
{46:32} But he who does not respond to the Caller of God will not cause failure [to Him] upon earth, and he will not have besides Him any protectors. Those are in manifest error."

I suggest,
{46:32} And whoever does not respond to the caller to God is not in the least overpowering in the earth, and he will not have besides Him any patrons. Those are in error manifest.
