And if We had made him an angel, We would have made him [appear as] a man, and We would have covered them with that in which they cover themselves.
Yusuf Ali
If We had made it an angel, We should have sent him as a man, and We should certainly have caused them confusion in a matter which they have already covered with confusion.
Pickthall
Had we appointed him (Our messenger) an angel, We assuredly had made him (as) a man (that he might speak to men); and (thus) obscured for them (the truth) they (now) obscure.
