سَأَصْرِفُ I will turn away عَنْ from ءَايَـٰتِىَ My Signs ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَتَكَبَّرُونَ are arrogant فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth بِغَيْرِ without ٱلْحَقِّ [the] right وَإِن and if يَرَوْا۟ they see كُلَّ every ءَايَةٍۢ sign لَّا not يُؤْمِنُوا۟ (will) they believe بِهَا in it وَإِن And if يَرَوْا۟ they see سَبِيلَ (the) way ٱلرُّشْدِ (of) the righteousness لَا not يَتَّخِذُوهُ (will) they take it سَبِيلًۭا (as) a way وَإِن but if يَرَوْا۟ they see سَبِيلَ (the) way ٱلْغَىِّ (of) [the] error يَتَّخِذُوهُ they will take it سَبِيلًۭا ۚ (as) a way ذَٰلِكَ That بِأَنَّهُمْ (is) because they كَذَّبُوا۟ denied بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا Our Signs وَكَانُوا۟ and they were عَنْهَا of them غَـٰفِلِينَ heedless ١٤٦

I will turn away from My signs those who are arrogant upon the earth without right; and if they should see every sign, they will not believe in it. And if they see the way of consciousness, they will not adopt it as a way; but if they see the way of error, they will adopt it as a way. That is because they have denied Our signs and they were heedless of them.
