  • فَأَوۡجَسَ Then he felt
  • مِنۡهُمۡ from them
  • خِيفَةٗۖ a fear
  • قَالُواْ They said
  • لَا (Do) not
  • تَخَفۡۖ fear
  • وَبَشَّرُوهُ and they gave him glad tidings
  • بِغُلَٰمٍ of a son
  • عَلِيمٖ learned
And he felt from them apprehension.1 They said, "Fear not," and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.

Then he conceived, he kept secret in himself, a fear of them. They said, 'Do not be afraid!', we are messengers from your Lord. And they gave him good tidings of [the birth of] a knowledgeable boy, one endowed with much knowledge, and this was Isaac, as mentioned in soorat Hood [Q. 11:71].
