هَـٰذَا خَلْقُ ٱللَّهِ فَأَرُونِى مَاذَا خَلَقَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن دُونِهِۦ ۚ بَلِ ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ فِى ضَلَـٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ
H atha khalqu All a hi faaroonee m atha khalaqa alla th eena min doonihi bali a l thth a limoona fee d al a lin mubeen in
[All] this is God's creation: show Me, then, what others than He may have created! Nay, but the evildoers11 are obviously lost in error!
  - Mohammad Asad

Sc., "who ascribe divine powers to beings or things other than God".

This is Allah's creation; now, show Me what is there that others (gods) besides Him have created? - In fact the wrongdoers are in manifest error.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
This is Allah's creation. Now show Me what those 'gods' other than Him have created. In fact, the wrongdoers are clearly astray.
  - Mustafa Khattab
This is the Creation of Allah. Now show me that which those (ye worship) beside Him have created. Nay, but the wrongdoers are in error manifest!
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Such is the Creation of Allah: now show Me what is there that others besides Him have created: nay but the Transgressors are in manifest error. 3592
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The transition from "We" in the last verse to "Me" in this verse means a still more personal relation to Allah:(see n. 56 to ii. 38): as we are now asked about the true worship of Allah, as against the false worship of others besides Allah.
