LiteralAnd We had written/decreed in The Book/Prophet David's Scripture from after the reminder/remembrance (could also be a sacred scripture or the Koran) that the earth/Planet Earth My worshippers/slaves the correct/righteous inherit it.

AsadAND, INDEED, after having exhorted [man], [Lit., "after the reminder (adh-dhikr)". For the deeper implications of the Quranic term dhikr, see note on verse 10 of this surah.] We laid it down in all the books of divine wisdom that My righteous servants shall inherit the earth: [Zabur (lit., "scripture" or "book") is a generic term denoting any "book of wisdom": hence, any and all of the divine scriptures revealed by God to the prophets (Tabari). The statement that "My righteous servants shall inherit the earth" is obviously an echo of the promise, "You are bound to rise high if you are [truly] believers"
