"The Holy Quran", tr. by Yusuf Ali, [1934],

Sra V.: Mda, Or The Table Spread.

Section 10

67.
Ya ayyuha aLrrasoolu balligh ma onzila ilayka min rabbika wa-in lam tafAAal fama ballaghta risalatahu waAllahu yaAAsimuka mina aLnnasi inna Allaha la yahdee alqawma alkafireenA

67. 70 O
Apostle! proclaim

The (Message) which hath been

Sent to thee from thy Lord.

If thou didst not, thou

Wouldst not have fulfilled

And proclaimed His Mission.

And God will defend thee

From men (who mean mischief).

For God guideth not

Those who reject Faith.

68.
Qul ya ahla alkitabi lastum AAala shay-in hatta tuqeemoo aLttawrata waAl-injeela wama onzila ilaykum min rabbikum walayazeedanna katheeran minhum ma onzila ilayka min rabbika tughyanan wakufran fala ta/sa AAala alqawmi alkafireenA

68. 71
Say: "O People of the Book!

Ye have no ground

To stand upon unless

Ye stand fast by the Law,

The Gospel, and all the revelation

That has come to you from

Your Lord.
" It is the revelation

That cometh to thee from

Thy Lord, that increaseth in most

Of them their obstinate

Rebellion and blasphemy.

But sorrow thou not

Over (these) people without Faith.

69.
Inna allatheena amanoo waAllatheena hadoo waALssabi-oona waALnnasara man amana biAllahi waAlyawmi al-akhiri waAAamila salihan fala khawfun AAalayhim wala hum yahzanoonA

69. 72
Those who believe (in the Qur-n),

Those who follow the Jewish (scriptures),

And the Sabians and the Christians,--

Any who believe in God

And the Last Day,

And work righteousness,--

On them shall be no fear,

Nor shall they grieve.

70.
Laqad akhathna meethaqa banee isra-eela waarsalna ilayhim rusulan kullama jaahum rasoolun bima la tahwa anfusuhum fareeqan kaththaboo wafareeqan yaqtuloonA

70. 73
We took the Covenant

Of the Children of Israel

And sent them apostles.

Every time there came

To them an apostle

With what they themselves

Desired not--some

(Of these) they called

Impostors, and some they

(Go so far as to) slay.

71.
Wahasiboo alla takoona fitnatun faAAamoo wasammoo thumma taba Allahu AAalayhim thumma AAamoo wasammoo katheerun minhum waAllahu baseerun bima yaAAmaloonA

71. 74
They thought there would be

No trial (or punishment);

So they became blind and deaf;

Yet God (in mercy) turned

To them; yet again many

Of them became blind and deaf.

But God sees well

All that they do.

72.
Laqad kafara allatheena qaloo inna Allaha huwa almaseehu ibnu maryama waqala almaseehu ya banee isra-eela oAAbudoo Allaha rabbee warabbakum innahu man yushrik biAllahi faqad harrama Allahu AAalayhi aljannata wama/wahu aLnnaru wama liL"thth"alimeena min ansarIn

72. 75 They do blaspheme who say:


"God is Christ the son

Of Mary" But said Christ:


"O Children of Israel!

Worship God, my Lord

And your Lord.
" Whoever

Joins other gods with God,--

God will forbid him

The Garden, and the Fire

Will be his abode. There will

For the wrong-doers

Be no one to help.

73.
Laqad kafara allatheena qaloo inna Allaha thalithu thalathatin wama min ilahin illa ilahun wahidun wa-in lam yantahoo AAamma yaqooloona layamassanna allatheena kafaroo minhum AAathabun aleemUn

73. 76 They do blaspheme who say:


God is one of three

In a Trinity: for there is

No god except One God.

If they desist not

From their word (of blasphemy),

Verily a grievous penalty

Will befall the blasphemers

Among them.

74.
Afala yatooboona ila Allahi wayastaghfiroonahu waAllahu ghafoorun raheemUn

74. 77
Why turn they not to God,

And seek His forgiveness?

For God is Oft-forgiving,

Most Merciful.

75.
Ma almaseehu ibnu maryama illa rasoolun qad khalat min qablihi aLrrusulu waommuhu siddeeqatun kana ya/kulani aLttaAAama on"th"ur kayfa nubayyinu lahumu al-ayati thumma on"th"ur anna yu/fakoonA

75. 78
Christ the son of Mary

Was no more than

An Apostle; many were

The apostles that passed away

Before him. His mother

Was a woman of truth.

They had both to eat

Their (daily) food.

See how God doth make

His Signs clear to them;

Yet see in what ways

They are deluded

Away from the truth!

76.
Qul ataAAbudoona min dooni Allahi ma la yamliku lakum darran wala nafAAan waAllahu huwa aLssameeAAu alAAaleemU

76. 79
Say: "Will ye worship,

Besides God, something

Which hath no power either

To harm or benefit you?

But God,--He it is

That heareth and knoweth

All things.
"

77. Qul ya ahla alkitabi la taghloo fee deenikum ghayra alhaqqi wala tattabiAAoo ahwaa qawmin qad dalloo min qablu waadalloo katheeran wadalloo AAan sawa-i aLssabeelI

77. 80
Say: "O People of the Book!

Exceed not in your religion

The bounds (of what is proper),

Trespassing beyond the truth,

Nor follow the vain desires

Of people who went wrong

In times gone by,--who misled

Many, and strayed (themselves)

From the even Way.
