When Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary!
Remember My favour unto thee and unto thy
mother; how I strengthened thee with the holy
Spirit, so that thou spakest unto mankind in
the cradle as in maturity; and how I taught
thee the Scripture and Wisdom and the Torah
and the Gospel; and how thou didst shape of
clay as it were the likeness of a bird by My
permission, and didst blow upon it and it was
a bird by My permission, and thou didst heal
him who was born blind and the leper by My
permission; and how thou didst raise the dead
by My permission; and how I restrained the
Children of Israel from (harming) thee when
thou camest unto them with clear proofs, and
those of them who disbelieved exclaimed: This
is naught else than evident magic; (110) And
when I inspired the disciples, (saying):
Believe in Me and in My messenger, they said:
We believe. Bear witness that we have
surrendered (unto Thee). (111) When the
disciples said: O Jesus, son of Mary! Is thy
Lord able to send down for us a table spread
with food from heaven? He said: Observe your
duty to Allah, if ye are true believers.
(112) (They said:) We wish to eat thereof,
that we may satisfy our hearts and know that
thou hast spoken truth to us, and that
thereof we may be witnesses. (113) Jesus, son
of Mary, said: O Allah, Lord of us! Send down
for us a table spread with food from heaven,
that it may be a feast for us, for the first
of us and for the last of us, and a sign from
Thee. Give us sustenance, for Thou art the
Best of Sustainers. (114) Allah said: Lo! I
send it down for you. And whoso disbelieveth
of you afterward, him surely will I punish
with a punishment wherewith I have not
punished any of (My) creatures. (115) And
when Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Didst
thou say unto mankind: Take me and my mother
for two gods beside Allah? he saith: Be
glorified! It was not mine to utter that to
which I had no right. If I had ever said it,
then Thou wouldst have known it. Thou knowest
what is in my mind, and I know not what is in
Thy Mind. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Knower
of Things Hidden? (116) I spake unto them
only that which Thou commandedst me,
(saying): Worship Allah, my Lord and your
Lord. I was a witness of them while I dwelt
among them, and when Thou tookest me Thou
wast the Watcher over them. Thou art Witness
over all things. (117) If Thou punish them,
lo! they are Thy slaves, and if Thou forgive
them (lo! they are Thy slaves). Lo! Thou,
only Thou, art the Mighty, the Wise
