Verse 23

ٱللَّهُ Allah نَزَّلَ has revealed أَحْسَنَ (the) best ٱلْحَدِيثِ (of) [the] statement كِتَـٰبًۭا a Book مُّتَشَـٰبِهًۭا (its parts) resembling each other مَّثَانِىَ oft-repeated تَقْشَعِرُّ Shiver مِنْهُ from it جُلُودُ (the) skins ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who يَخْشَوْنَ fear رَبَّهُمْ their Lord ثُمَّ then تَلِينُ relax جُلُودُهُمْ their skins وَقُلُوبُهُمْ and their hearts إِلَىٰ at ذِكْرِ (the) remembrance ٱللَّهِ ۚ (of) Allah ذَٰلِكَ That هُدَى (is the) guidance ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah يَهْدِى He guides بِهِۦ with it مَن whom يَشَآءُ ۚ He wills وَمَن And whoever يُضْلِلِ Allah lets go astray ٱللَّهُ Allah lets go astray فَمَا then not لَهُۥ for him مِنْ any هَادٍ guide ٢٣

Allāh has sent down the best statement: a consistent Book wherein is reiteration. The skins shiver therefrom of those who fear their Lord; then their skins and their hearts relax at the remembrance [i.e., mention] of Allāh. That is the guidance of Allāh by which He guides whom He wills. And one whom Allāh sends astray - for him there is no guide.
