أَمْ لَهُمْ شُرَكَآءُ فَلْيَأْتُوا۟ بِشُرَكَآئِهِمْ إِن كَانُوا۟ صَـٰدِقِينَ
Am lahum shurak a o falyatoo bishurak a ihim in k a noo sa diqeen a
Or have they, perchance, any sages to support their views?20 Well, then, if they are sincere in this their claim, let them produce those supporters of theirs
  - Mohammad Asad

Lit., "Or have they any associates?" - i.e., wise people ('uqala') who would share their views and their way of life (Zamakhshari and Razi). Accordingly, the expression shuraka'uhum in the next sentence has been rendered as "those supporters of theirs".

Or do they have other gods who could help them against Allah? If so, let them produce their other gods if they are truthful.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Or do they have associate-gods 'supporting this claim'? Then let them bring forth their associate-gods, if what they say is true.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Or have they other gods? Then let them bring their other gods if they are truthful
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Or have they some "Partners" (in Allah)? Then let them produce their "partners" if they are truthful! 5621
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

"Partners" in Godhead. as in the doctrine of the Trinity, or indeed in any form of polytheism. Such a doctrine destroys the cardinal doctrine of the Unity of Allah.
