And when

you make a call

for

the prayer

they take it

(in) ridicule

and fun

That

(is) because they

(are) a people

(who do) not

understand

Say

O People

(of) the Book

Do

you resent

[of] us

except

that

we believe

in Allah

and what

has been revealed

to us

and what

was revealed

from

before

and that

most of you

(are) defiantly disobedient

Say

Shall

I inform you

(of) worse

than

that

(as) recompense

from

Allah

Whom

has (been) cursed

(by) Allah

and He became angry

with him

and made

of them

[the] apes

and [the] swines

and (who) worshipped

the false deities

Those

(are) worse

(in) position

and farthest astray

from

(the) even

way

And when

they come to you

they say

We believe

But certainly

they entered

with disbelief

and they

certainly

went out

with it

And Allah

knows best

[of] what

they were

hiding

And you see

many

of them

hastening

into

[the] sin

and [the] transgression

and eating

the forbidden

Surely evil

(is) what

they were

doing

Why (do) not

forbid them

the Rabbis

and the religious scholars

from

their saying

the sinful

and their eating

(of) the forbidden

Surely, evil

(is) what

they used to

do

And said

the Jews

The Hand

(of) Allah

(is) chained

Are chained

their hands

and they have been cursed

for what

they said

Nay

His Hands

(are) stretched out

He spends

how

He wills

And surely increase

many

of them

what

has been revealed

to you

from

your Lord

(in) rebellion

and disbelief

And We have cast

among them

[the] enmity

and [the] hatred

till

(the) Day

(of) the Resurrection

Every time

they kindled

(the) fire

of [the] war

it (was) extinguished

(by) Allah

And they strive

in

the earth

spreading corruption

And Allah

(does) not

love

the corrupters
