Sayyed Abbas Sadr-Ameli   
And when Allah says: ' O' Jesus son of Mary! did you say to the people : ' Take me and my mother for two gods besides Allah ?' He (Jesus) says: 'Glory be to You ! It was not mine to utter what I had no right to (say) . Had I said it, then You would have known it. You know whatever is in my self, and I do not know what is in Your Self. Verily You are the Knower of all the unseen'
Al-muntakhab fi tafsir al-Qur‘an al-Karim   
Then Allah says to ‘Isa: "Did you O ‘Isa, the son of Maryam, ask the people to take you and your mother as two Ilah’s besides Allah and pay you the same tribute that is dutiful only to Allah!" "Glory be to You", says ‘Isa, and extolled are Your glorious attributes how could I have said what was never within my right and infinitely beyond my jurisdiction!" "If I had uttered it or even thought of it, You would have known it, You can read my thoughts whereas I cannot possibly read Yours; You are 'Alimun of the unknown and of the invisible and of all private thoughts and feelings"
Mir Aneesuddin   
And when Allah will say, "O Isa, the son of Maryam ! did you say to mankind: Take me and my mother as two gods, besides Allah?" He will say, "Glory be to You. It does not befit me that I should say something for which I have no right (to say). Had I said it then You would have indeed known it, You know that which is in my soul (mind/heart), whereas I do not know that which is in your Soul (Mind/Heart). You are certainly a Great Knower of the unseen things.

Yusuf Ali (Orig. 1938)   
And behold! God will say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of God'?" He will say: "Glory to Thee! never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart, Thou I know not what is in Thine. For Thou knowest in full all that is hidden

And when Allah said, "O Isa, son (of) Maryam! Did you say to the people, "Take me and my mother (as) two gods besides Allah?" He said, "Glory be to You! Not was for me that I say what not I (had) right. If I had said it, then surely You would have known it. You know what (is) in myself, and not I know what (is) in Yourself. Indeed, You, You (are) All-Knower (of) the unseen
