يَا أَيُّهَا
الَّذِينَ
أُوتُوا
الْكِتَابَ
آمِنُوا
بِمَا
نَزَّلْنَا
مُصَدِّقًا
لِّمَا
مَعَكُم
مِّن
قَبْلِ
أَن
نَّطْمِسَ
وُجُوهًا
فَنَرُدَّهَا
عَلَى
أَدْبَارِهَا
أَوْ
نَلْعَنَهُمْ
كَمَا
لَعَنَّا
أَصْحَابَ
السَّبْتِ
وَكَانَ
أَمْرُ
اللَّهِ
مَفْعُولًا

O ye People of the Book! believe in what We have (now) revealed, confirming what was (already) with you, before We change the face and fame of some (of you) beyond all recognition, and turn them hindwards, or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath-breakers, for the decision of Allah Must be carried out.
— Abdullah Yusufali
O you who were given the Book! Believe in what We have sent down confirming what is with you, before We blot out the faces and turn them backwards, or curse them as We cursed the People of the Sabbath, and Allah’s command is bound to be fulfilled.
