5:41

يَا أَيُّهَا

الرَّسُولُ

لَا

يَحْزُنكَ

الَّذِينَ

يُسَارِعُونَ

فِي

الْكُفْرِ

مِنَ

الَّذِينَ

قَالُوا

آمَنَّا

بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ

وَلَمْ

تُؤْمِن

قُلُوبُهُمْ

وَمِنَ

الَّذِينَ

هَادُوا

سَمَّاعُونَ

لِلْكَذِبِ

سَمَّاعُونَ

لِقَوْمٍ

آخَرِينَ

لَمْ

يَأْتُوكَ

يُحَرِّفُونَ

الْكَلِمَ

مِن

بَعْدِ

مَوَاضِعِهِ

يَقُولُونَ

إِنْ

أُوتِيتُمْ

هَذَا

فَخُذُوهُ

وَإِن

لَّمْ

تُؤْتَوْهُ

فَاحْذَرُوا

وَمَن

يُرِدِ

اللَّهُ

فِتْنَتَهُ

فَلَن

تَمْلِكَ

لَهُ

مِنَ

اللَّهِ

شَيْئًا

أُولَئِكَ

الَّذِينَ

لَمْ

يُرِدِ

اللَّهُ

أَن

يُطَهِّرَ

قُلُوبَهُمْ

لَهُمْ

فِي

الدُّنْيَا

خِزْيٌ

وَلَهُمْ

فِي

الْآخِرَةِ

عَذَابٌ

عَظِيمٌ

Messenger, do not be grieved about the people who run back to disbelief. They only say that they believe but, in fact, they have no faith in their hearts. Some Jews knowingly listen to lies and accept the lies which come from others, (Jews), who have no relation with you and who distort certain words of the Bible and say to the people, "Accept only those words which are the same as what We have told you. If you do not, then beware!" You can not help those whom God wants to try. God does not want to cleanse the hearts of such people. They lead a disgraceful life in this world and in the life hereafter they will suffer a great torment.
