These are all the english translations of the quran.
The verse which you says proves the universe is still expanding.
So pretend were back before the time people discovered the universe is expanding and you were presented with this verse.
Now the ones in bold don't even mention the word expanding, the other verses mention expanding but don't necessarily say it is still expanding.
2 out of the 6 translations do vaguely mention expanding.
So you can see how your translation differentiates quite a bit from these translations when you're trying to prove the quran predicted the universe is expanding.
Can you see how that looks a bit suspicious?

Quote:Sahih International
And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
Muhsin Khan
With power did We construct the heaven. Verily, We are Able to extend the vastness of space thereof.
Pickthall
We have built the heaven with might, and We it is Who make the vast extent (thereof).
Yusuf Ali
With power and skill did We construct the Firmament: for it is We Who create the vastness of pace.
Shakir
And the heaven, We raised it high with power, and most surely We are the makers of things ample.
Dr. Ghali
And the heaven (is also a sign). We have built it with (Our) Hands (i.e., Capability) and surely We are indeed extending (it) wide.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
