إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ Qur’an At-Takwir (81:19)
Innahu laqawlu rasoolin kareem in
behold, this [divine writ] is indeed the [inspired] word of a noble apostle,5
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

By "calling to witness", certain natural phenomena which are familiar to man because of their permanent recurrence, attention is drawn to the fact that what we call "laws of nature" are but the observable elements of God's plan of creation - a plan in which His revelations (referred to in this and the subsequent verses) play a decisive role: and so, by implication, the divine writ granted to Muhammad is as intrinsically "natural" as any other phenomenon, concrete or abstract, in the realm of God's creation.

surely this word (The Qur'an) is brought by a noble Messenger (Gabriel),
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Indeed, this 'Quran' is the Word of 'Allah delivered by Gabriel,' a noble messenger-angel,
  - Mustafa Khattab

That this is in truth the word of an honored messenger,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall

Verily this is the word of a most honorable Messenger 5988
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

They are told here that all their three theories were foolish. The Revelation was really from Allah. Their wonder should cease if they observe the daily miracles worked round them in nature. The bringer of Allah's Message was the angel Gabriel, and not an evil spirit.
