you, and from the idolaters. But if ye persevere and ward off (evil),
then that is of the steadfast heart of things.
S: You shall certainly be tried respecting your wealth and your souls,
and you shall certainly hear from those who have been given the Book
before you and from those who are polytheists much annoying talk; and
if you are patient and guard (against evil), surely this is one of the
affairs (which should be) determined upon.

Y: And remember Allah took a covenant from the People of the Book, to
make it known and clear to mankind, and not to hide it; but they threw
it away behind their backs, and purchased with it some miserable gain!
And vile was the bargain they made!
P: And (remember) when Allah laid a charge on those who had received the
Scripture (He said): Ye are to expound it to mankind and not to hide
it. But they flung it behind their backs and bought thereby a little
gain. Verily evil is that which they have gained thereby.

S: And Allah's is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and Allah
has power over all things.

Y: Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the
alternation of night and day,- there are indeed Signs for men of
understanding,-
P: Lo! In the creation of the heavens and the earth and (in) the
difference of night and day are tokens (of His Sovereignty) for men of
