Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali and Muhammad Muhsin Khan,

(31:16) O my son! If it be (anything) equal to the weight of a grain of mustard seed, and though it be in a rock, or in the heavens or in the earth, Allah will bring it forth. Verily, Allah is Subtle (in bringing out that grain), Well-Aware (of its place).

Dr. Ghali

Amatul Rahman Omar

Verily, Allâh is the Knower of all subtleties (and all hidden secrets) and is All-Aware.
