وَبَرًّۢا بِوَٰلِدَتِى وَلَمْ يَجْعَلْنِى جَبَّارًا شَقِيًّا
Wabarran biw a lidatee walam yajAAalnee jabb a ran shaqiyy a n
and [has endowed me with] piety towards my mother; and He has not made me haughty or bereft of grace.
  - Mohammad Asad
He has exhorted me to honor my mother and has not made me domineering, hard to deal with.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
and to be kind to my mother. He has not made me arrogant or defiant.
  - Mustafa Khattab
And (hath made me) dutiful toward her who bore me, and hath not made me arrogant, unblest.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
"(He) hath made me kind to my mother and not overbearing or miserable; 2484
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Overbearing violence is not only unjust and harmful to those on whom it is practised; it is perhaps even more harmful to the person who practises it, for his soul becomes turbid, unsettled, and ultimately unhappy and wretched,-the state of those in Hell. Here the negative qualities are "not overbearing or miserable." As applied to John they were "not overbearing or rebellious." John bore his punishment from the State without any protest or drawing back.
