إِنَّ عِبَادِى لَيْسَ لَكَ عَلَيْهِمْ سُلْطَـٰنٌ ۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِرَبِّكَ وَكِيلًا Qur’an Al-Israa (17:65)
Inna AAib a dee laysa laka AAalayhim sul ta nun wakaf a birabbika wakeel a n
"[And yet,] behold, thou shalt have no power over [such of] My servants [as place their trust in Me]:80 for none is as worthy of trust as thy Sustainer."
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

I.e., "thou shalt have no real power over them", as brought out in 14:22 and 15:42 .

- as for My servants, you shall have no authority over them. Your Rabb is sufficient as their Guardian."
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
'Allah added,' 'You will truly have no authority over My 'faithful' servants.' And sufficient is your Lord as a Guardian.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab
Lo! My (faithful) bondmen--over them thou hast no power,--and thy Lord sufficeth as (their) guardian.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall

"As for My servants no authority shalt thou have over them." Enough is thy Lord for a Disposer of affairs. 2259 2260
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

As Evil has no authority over the sincere servants of Allah, they should put their trust completely in Him. For He is All-Sufficient to carry out their affairs, and by His grace, to save them from all harm and danger.

This verse should be read along with the two preceding ones to complete their meaning. Evil has no power except over those who yield to its solicitations.
