                                    33  Is then He who watches them, ‘I have been commanded
                                  over every soul and its actions only to worship God and not to
                                  [like any other]? Yet they ascribe associate partners with Him: to

                                  them! Or do you presume to return.’  Thus We have revealed

                                  verbal assertion?’ Indeed, their which has come to you, you
                                  devices seem fair to those who would have no protector or shield
                                  deny the truth, and they are kept against God.  38 We sent down
                                  back from the right path. There messengers before you and gave
