Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And (remember) when Musa (Moses) said to his people: "O my people! Why do you annoy me while you know certainly that I am the Messenger of Allah to you?

And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel!

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And (remember) when 'Îsa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), said: "O Children of Israel!

But when he (Ahmad i.e. Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) came to them with clear proofs, they said: "This is plain magic."

Shakir

And when Isa son of Marium said: O children of Israel! surely I am the apostle of Allah to you, verifying that which is before me of the Taurat and giving the good news of an Apostle who will come after me, his name being Ahmad, but when he came to them with clear arguments they said: This is clear magic.
