فَأَتَتْ بِهِ قَوْمَهَا تَحْمِلُهُ قَالُوا یَا مَرْیَمُ لَقَدْ جِئْتِ شَیْئاً فَرِیّ(( 27 ))

27- THEN SHE CAME WITH HIM TO HER FAMILY, CARRYING HIM (IN HER BOSOM). THEY SAID:ِ ``O, MARY! YOU HAVE INDEED DONE A WONDERFULLY BAD THING!''

یَا أُخْتَ هَارُونَ مَا کَانَ أَبُوکِ امْرَأَ سَوْء وَمَا کَانَتْ أُمُّکِ بَغِیّ(( 28 ))

28- O, SISTER OF AARON! YOUR FATHER WAS NOT A BAD MAN NOR WAS YOUR MOTHER A WOMAN UNCHASTE.

فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَیْهِ قَالُوا کَیْفَ نُکَلِّمُ مَنْ کَانَ فِى الْمَهْدِ صَبِیّ(( 29 ))

29- THEN SHE POINTED TO HIM (SAYING; ASK THE BABY). THEY SAID:ِ ``HOW CAN WE SPEAK TO HIM WHO IS A CHILD IN THE CRADLE?''

قَالَ إِنِّى عَبْدُ اللهِ آتَانِىَ الْکِتَابَ وَجَعَلَنِى نَبِیّ(( 30 ))

30- (JESUS IN THE CRADLE BEGAN TO SPEAK AND) SAID:ِ ``I AM THE SERVANT OF ALLAH. HE HAS GIVEN ME BOOK, AND HAS MADE ME A PROPHET.''

وَجَعَلَنِى مُبَارَکاً أَیْنَ مَا کُنتُ وَأَوْصَانِى بِالصَّلاَةِ وَالزَّکَاةِ مَا دُمْتُ حَیّ(( 31 ))

31- AND HE HAS MADE ME A BLESSING, WHEREVER I BE; AND ENJOINED ME TO PRAY, AND TO (GIVE THE) ALMS, AS LONG AS I LIVE.

وَبَرّاً بِوَالِدَتِى وَلَمْ یَجْعَلْنِى جَبَّاراً شَقِیّ(( 32 ))

32- AND DOING GOOD TO MY MOTHER, AND WILL NOT LET ME BECOME A VICIOUS TYRANT.

وَالسَّلاَمُ عَلَىَّ یَوْمَ وُلِدْتُ وَیَوْمَ أَمُوتُ وَیَوْمَ أُبْعَثُ حَیّ(( 33 ))

33- AND PEACE IS ON ME, THE DAY I WAS BORN, AND THE DAY I DIE, AND THE DAY I AM RAISED TO LIFE.
