Sahih International:

We only say that some of our gods have possessed you with evil [i.e., insanity]." He said, "Indeed, I call Allah to witness, and witness [yourselves] that I am free from whatever you associate with Allah (Hud [11] : 54)

1 Mufti Taqi Usmani

We do not say except that some of our gods have subjected you to some evil.” He said, “I make Allah my witness, and you bear witness that I have nothing to do with what you take as gods
