يَـٰٓأَبَتِ إِنِّى قَدْ جَآءَنِى مِنَ ٱلْعِلْمِ مَا لَمْ يَأْتِكَ فَٱتَّبِعْنِىٓ أَهْدِكَ صِرَٰطًا سَوِيًّا

"O my father! Behold, there has indeed come to me [a ray] of knowledge such as has never yet come unto thee:32 follow me, then; I shall guide thee onto a perfect way.
  - Mohammad Asad

I.e., a cognition of God's existence and uniqueness through intellectual insight (cf. {6:74-82}).

O my father! I have been given some knowledge which has not come to you, so follow me: I'll guide you to the Right Way.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
O dear father! I have certainly received some knowledge which you have not received, so follow me and I will guide you to the Straight Path.
  - Mustafa Khattab
O my father! Lo! there hath come unto me of knowledge that which came not unto thee. So follow me, and I will lead thee on a right path.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
"O my father! to me hath come knowledge which hath not reached thee: so follow me: I will guide thee to a Way that is even and straight. 2494 2495
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Some are more receptive of Light than others. It is their duty and privilege to guide and point to the right Way.

Sawiyan-right, smooth, even; complete, perfect; hence the derived meaning: in xix. 10, in full possession of all the physical senses; in that context, 'not dumb': in xix. 17, when the angel appears in the form of a man, 'completely like' a man, a man 'in all respects.'
