فَبِمَا Then because of fabimā their breaking naqḍihim (of) their covenant mīthāqahum and their disbelief wakuf'rihim in (the) Signs biāyāti (of) Allah l-lahi and their killing waqatlihimu (of) the Prophets l-anbiyāa without bighayri any right ḥaqqin and their saying waqawlihim Our hearts qulūbunā (are) wrapped ghul'fun Nay bal (has) set a seal ṭabaʿa Allah l-lahu on their (hearts) ʿalayhā for their disbelief bikuf'rihim so not falā they believe yu'minūna except illā a few qalīlan
And [We cursed them]1 for their breaking of the covenant and their disbelief in the signs of Allāh and their killing of the prophets without right and their saying, "Our hearts are wrapped" [i.e., sealed against reception]. Rather, Allāh has sealed them because of their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few.2
وَبِكُفْرِهِمْ And for their disbelief wabikuf'rihim and their saying waqawlihim against ʿalā Maryam maryama a slander buh'tānan great ʿaẓīman
And [We cursed them] for their disbelief and their saying against Mary a great slander1
وَقَوْلِهِمْ And for their saying waqawlihim Indeed, we innā killed qatalnā the Messiah l-masīḥa Isa ʿīsā son ib'na (of) Maryam maryama (the) Messenger rasūla (of) Allah l-lahi And not wamā they killed him qatalūhu and not wamā they crucified him ṣalabūhu but walākin it was made to appear (so) shubbiha to them lahum And indeed wa-inna those who alladhīna differ ikh'talafū in it fīhi (are) surely in lafī doubt shakkin about it min'hu Not mā for them lahum about it bihi [of] min (any) knowledge ʿil'min except illā (the) following ittibāʿa (of) assumption l-ẓani And not wamā they killed him qatalūhu certainly yaqīnan
And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus the son of Mary, the messenger of Allāh." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.1
بَل Nay bal he was raised rafaʿahu (by) Allah l-lahu towards Him ilayhi And is wakāna Allah l-lahu All-Mighty ʿazīzan All-Wise ḥakīman
Rather, Allāh raised him to Himself. And ever is Allāh Exalted in Might and Wise.
وَإِن And (there is) not wa-in from min (the) People ahli (of) the Book l-kitābi but illā surely he believes layu'minanna in him bihi before qabla his death mawtihi And (on the) Day wayawma (of) the Resurrection l-qiyāmati he will be yakūnu against them ʿalayhim a witness shahīdan
And there is none from the People of the Scripture but that he will surely believe in him [i.e., Jesus] before his death.1 And on the Day of Resurrection he will be against them a witness.
فَبِظُلْمٍۢ Then for (the) wrongdoing fabiẓul'min of mina those who alladhīna were Jews hādū We made unlawful ḥarramnā for them ʿalayhim good things ṭayyibātin which had been lawful uḥillat for them lahum and for their hindering wabiṣaddihim from ʿan (the) way sabīli (of) Allah l-lahi many kathīran
For wrongdoing on the part of the Jews, We made unlawful for them [certain] good foods which had been lawful to them, and for their averting from the way of Allāh many [people],
وَأَخْذِهِمُ And for their taking wa-akhdhihimu (of) [the] usury l-riba while certainly waqad they were forbidden nuhū from it ʿanhu and (for) their consuming wa-aklihim wealth amwāla (of) the people l-nāsi wrongfully bil-bāṭili And We have prepared wa-aʿtadnā for the disbelievers lil'kāfirīna among them min'hum a punishment ʿadhāban painful alīman
And [for] their taking of usury while they had been forbidden from it, and their consuming of the people's wealth unjustly. And We have prepared for the disbelievers among them a painful punishment.
لَّـٰكِنِ But lākini the ones who are firm l-rāsikhūna in fī the knowledge l-ʿil'mi among them min'hum and the believers wal-mu'minūna believe yu'minūna in what bimā (is) revealed unzila to you ilayka and what wamā was revealed unzila from min before you qablika And the ones who establish wal-muqīmīna the prayer l-ṣalata and the ones who give wal-mu'tūna the zakah l-zakata and the ones who believe wal-mu'minūna in Allah bil-lahi and the Day wal-yawmi the Last l-ākhiri those ulāika We will give them sanu'tīhim a reward ajran great ʿaẓīman
But those firm in knowledge among them and the believers believe in what has been revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], and what was revealed before you. And the establishers of prayer [especially] and the givers of zakāh and the believers in Allāh and the Last Day - those We will give a great reward.
