21 With authority there, (and) faithful to his trust.

23 And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon.

23 Walaqad raahu bialofuqi almubeeni

28 (With profit) to whoever among you wills to go straight:

28 Liman shaa minkum an yastaqeema

28 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight.

29 But ye shall not will except as Allah wills, - the Cherisher of the Worlds.

29 Wama tashaoona illa an yashaa Allahu rabbu alAAalameena

29 And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation.
