Translation for 17:60

And ˹remember, O Prophet˺ when We told you, “Certainly your Lord encompasses the people.” And We have made what We brought you to see¹ as well as the cursed tree ˹mentioned˺ in the Quran² only as a test for the people. We keep warning them, but it only increases them greatly in defiance.
