When he reached his full strength and maturity, We gave him wisdom and knowledge. This is how We reward those who do good.
And when he attained his full strength, and was perfect (in manhood), We bestowed on him Hukm (Prophethood and right judgement of the affairs) and religious knowledge [of the religion of his forefathers i.e. Islâmic Monotheism]. And thus do We reward the Muhsinûn (i.e. good doers. See the footnote of V.9:120).
And when he reached his full strength and was ripe, We gave him wisdom and knowledge. Thus do We reward the good.
When he reached full age, and was firmly established (in life), We bestowed on him wisdom and knowledge: for thus do We reward those who do good.
