وَٱذْكُرْ فِى ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مَرْيَمَ إِذِ ٱنتَبَذَتْ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا مَكَانًا شَرْقِيًّا

AND CALL to mind, through this divine writ,12 Mary. Lo! She withdrew from her family to an eastern place
  - Mohammad Asad

Lit., "in the divine writ". In this surah as well as in Al 'Imran the story of the birth of John is followed by that of Jesus - firstly, because John (called "the Baptist" in the Bible) was to be a precursor of Jesus, and, secondly, because of the obvious parallelism in the form of the announcements of these two births.

O Muhammad, relate to them the story of Maryam in the Book (The Qur'an) when she withdrew from her family to a place in the East.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
And mention in the Book 'O Prophet, the story of' Mary when she withdrew from her family to a place in the east,
  - Mustafa Khattab
And make mention of Mary in the Scripture, when she had withdrawn from her people to a chamber looking East,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Relate in the Book (the story of) Mary when she withdrew from her family to a place in the East. 2470 2471
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Cf. the story of Mary as related in iii. 42-51. Here the whole theme is different: it is the personal side of the experiences of the worshippers of Allah in relation to their families or environment.

To a private eastern chamber, perhaps in the Temple. She went into privacy, from her people and from people in general, for prayer and devotion. It was in this state of purity that the angel appeared to her in the shape of a man. She thought it was a man. She was frightened, and she adjured him not to invade her privacy.
