وَٱللَّهُ And Allah أَعْلَمُ knows better بِأَعْدَآئِكُمْ ۚ about your enemies وَكَفَىٰ and (is) sufficient بِٱللَّهِ Allah وَلِيًّۭا (as) a Protector وَكَفَىٰ and sufficient بِٱللَّهِ (is) Allah نَصِيرًۭا (as) a Helper ٤٥

And Allāh is most knowing of your enemies; and sufficient is Allāh as an ally, and sufficient is Allāh as a helper.

مِّنَ Of ٱلَّذِينَ those who هَادُوا۟ are Jews يُحَرِّفُونَ they distort ٱلْكَلِمَ the words عَن from مَّوَاضِعِهِۦ their places وَيَقُولُونَ and they say سَمِعْنَا We hear[d] وَعَصَيْنَا and we disobey[ed] وَٱسْمَعْ and "Hear غَيْرَ not مُسْمَعٍۢ to be heard وَرَٰعِنَا and "Raina لَيًّۢا twisting بِأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ [with] their tongues وَطَعْنًۭا and defaming فِى [in] ٱلدِّينِ ۚ the religion وَلَوْ And if أَنَّهُمْ [that] they قَالُوا۟ (had) said سَمِعْنَا We hear[d] وَأَطَعْنَا and we obey[ed] وَٱسْمَعْ and "Hear وَٱنظُرْنَا and look (at) us لَكَانَ surely it (would) have been خَيْرًۭا better لَّهُمْ for them وَأَقْوَمَ and more suitable وَلَـٰكِن [And] but لَّعَنَهُمُ cursed them ٱللَّهُ Allah بِكُفْرِهِمْ for their disbelief فَلَا so not يُؤْمِنُونَ they believe إِلَّا except قَلِيلًۭا a few ٤٦

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.

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O you ٱلَّذِينَ who أُوتُوا۟ (have) been given ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book ءَامِنُوا۟ believe بِمَا in what نَزَّلْنَا We (have) revealed مُصَدِّقًۭا confirming لِّمَا what is مَعَكُم with you مِّن from قَبْلِ before أَن [that] نَّطْمِسَ We efface وُجُوهًۭا faces فَنَرُدَّهَا and turn them عَلَىٰٓ on أَدْبَارِهَآ their backs أَوْ or نَلْعَنَهُمْ We curse them كَمَا as لَعَنَّآ We cursed أَصْحَـٰبَ companions ٱلسَّبْتِ ۚ (of) the Sabbath وَكَانَ And is أَمْرُ (the) command ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah مَفْعُولًا (always) executed ٤٧

O you who were given the Scripture, believe in what We have sent down [to Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)], confirming that which is with you, before We obliterate faces and turn them toward their backs or curse them as We cursed the sabbath-breakers. And ever is the matter [i.e., decree] of Allāh accomplished.

إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah لَا (does) not يَغْفِرُ forgive أَن that يُشْرَكَ partners be associated بِهِۦ with Him وَيَغْفِرُ but He forgives مَا from دُونَ other than ذَٰلِكَ that لِمَن for whom يَشَآءُ ۚ He wills وَمَن And whoever يُشْرِكْ associates partners بِٱللَّهِ with Allah فَقَدِ then surely ٱفْتَرَىٰٓ he has fabricated إِثْمًا a sin عَظِيمًا tremendous ٤٨

Indeed, Allāh does not forgive association with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills. And he who associates others with Allāh has certainly fabricated a tremendous sin.

أَلَمْ Do not تَرَ you see إِلَى [towards] ٱلَّذِينَ those who يُزَكُّونَ claim purity أَنفُسَهُم ۚ (for) themselves بَلِ Nay ٱللَّهُ (it is) Allah يُزَكِّى He purifies مَن whom يَشَآءُ He wills وَلَا and not يُظْلَمُونَ they will be wronged فَتِيلًا (even as much as) a hair on a date-seed ٤٩

Have you not seen those who claim themselves to be pure? Rather, Allāh purifies whom He wills, and injustice is not done to them, [even] as much as a thread [inside a date seed].

ٱنظُرْ See كَيْفَ how يَفْتَرُونَ they invent عَلَى about ٱللَّهِ Allah ٱلْكَذِبَ ۖ [the] lie وَكَفَىٰ and sufficient بِهِۦٓ is it إِثْمًۭا (as) a sin مُّبِينًا manifest ٥٠

Look how they invent about Allāh untruth, and sufficient is that as a manifest sin.

أَلَمْ Do not تَرَ you see إِلَى [towards] ٱلَّذِينَ those who أُوتُوا۟ were given نَصِيبًۭا a portion مِّنَ of ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ the Book يُؤْمِنُونَ They believe بِٱلْجِبْتِ in the superstition وَٱلطَّـٰغُوتِ and the false deities وَيَقُولُونَ and they say لِلَّذِينَ for those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieve[d] هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ These أَهْدَىٰ (are) better guided مِنَ than ٱلَّذِينَ those who ءَامَنُوا۟ believe[d] سَبِيلًا (as to the) way ٥١

Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the Scripture, who believe in jibt [superstition] and ṭāghūt [false objects of worship] and say about the disbelievers, "These are better guided than the believers as to the way"?
