Sahih International:

And you will not cause failure [to Allah] upon the earth. And you have not besides Allah any protector or helper. (Ash-Shuraa [42] : 31)

1 Mufti Taqi Usmani

You are not able to frustrate (Him) in the earth. And, besides Allah, you have neither someone to protect, nor someone to help.
