Sura 4
Aya 46
46
مِنَ الَّذينَ هادوا يُحَرِّفونَ الكَلِمَ عَن مَواضِعِهِ وَيَقولونَ سَمِعنا وَعَصَينا وَاسمَع غَيرَ مُسمَعٍ وَراعِنا لَيًّا بِأَلسِنَتِهِم وَطَعنًا فِي الدّينِ ۚ وَلَو أَنَّهُم قالوا سَمِعنا وَأَطَعنا وَاسمَع وَانظُرنا لَكانَ خَيرًا لَهُم وَأَقوَمَ وَلٰكِن لَعَنَهُمُ اللَّهُ بِكُفرِهِم فَلا يُؤمِنونَ إِلّا قَليلًا

Ahmed Ali

Some among the Jews distort the words out of context and say (in place of the right words): “We have heard and do not obey;” and, “hear without hearing,” and “listen to us,” twisting their tongues and reviling the faith. But if they had said: “We have heard and obey,” and, “hear and regard us,” it would have been better for them and more appropriate. But God has disgraced them for their lack of belief; and so only a few of them believe.
