أَلَمْ Did not alam you see tara [towards] ilā those who alladhīna were given ūtū a portion naṣīban of mina the Book l-kitābi purchasing yashtarūna [the] error l-ḍalālata and wishing wayurīdūna that an you stray taḍillū (from) the way l-sabīla
Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the Scripture, purchasing error [in exchange for it] and wishing you would lose the way?
وَٱللَّهُ And Allah wal-lahu knows better aʿlamu about your enemies bi-aʿdāikum and (is) sufficient wakafā Allah bil-lahi (as) a Protector waliyyan and sufficient wakafā (is) Allah bil-lahi (as) a Helper naṣīran
And Allāh is most knowing of your enemies; and sufficient is Allāh as an ally, and sufficient is Allāh as a helper.
مِّنَ Of mina those who alladhīna are Jews hādū they distort yuḥarrifūna the words l-kalima from ʿan their places mawāḍiʿihi and they say wayaqūlūna We hear[d] samiʿ'nā and we disobey[ed] waʿaṣaynā and "Hear wa-is'maʿ not ghayra to be heard mus'maʿin and "Raina warāʿinā twisting layyan [with] their tongues bi-alsinatihim and defaming waṭaʿnan [in] fī the religion l-dīni And if walaw [that] they annahum (had) said qālū We hear[d] samiʿ'nā and we obey[ed] wa-aṭaʿnā and "Hear wa-is'maʿ and look (at) us wa-unẓur'nā surely it (would) have been lakāna better khayran for them lahum and more suitable wa-aqwama [And] but walākin cursed them laʿanahumu Allah l-lahu for their disbelief bikuf'rihim so not falā they believe yu'minūna except illā a few qalīlan
Among the Jews are those who distort words from their [proper] places [i.e., usages] and say, "We hear and disobey" and "Hear but be not heard" and "Rāʿinā," twisting their tongues and defaming the religion. And if they had said [instead], "We hear and obey" and "Wait for us [to understand]," it would have been better for them and more suitable. But Allāh has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few.
