P:  They believe in Allah and the Last Day, and enjoin right conduct and forbid indecency, and vie one with another in good works.  These are of the righteous.

S:  They believe in Allah and the last day, and they enjoin what is right and forbid the wrong and they strive with one another in hastening to good deeds, and those are among the good.

003.115 Y:  Of the good that they do, nothing will be rejected of them; for Allah knoweth well those that do right.

P:  And whatever good they do, they will not be denied the meed thereof.  Allah is Aware of those who ward off (evil).

S:  And whatever good they do, they shall not be denied it, and Allah knows those who guard (against evil).

003.116 Y:  Those who reject Faith,- neither their possessions nor their (numerous) progeny will avail them aught against Allah:  They will be companions of the Fire,-dwelling therein (for ever).

P:  Lo! the riches and the progeny of those who disbelieve will not avail them aught against Allah; and such are rightful owners of the Fire.  They will abide therein.

S:  (As for) those who disbelieve, surely neither their wealth nor their children shall avail them in the least against Allah; and these are the inmates of the fire; therein they shall abide.

003.117 Y:  What they spend in the life of this (material) world May be likened to a wind which brings a nipping frost:  It strikes and destroys the harvest of men who have wronged their own souls:  it is not Allah that hath wronged them, but they wrong themselves.

P:  The likeness of that which they spend in this life of the world is as the likeness of a biting, icy wind which smiteth the harvest of a people who have wronged themselves, and devastateth it.  Allah wronged them not, but they do wrong themselves.

S:  The likeness of what they spend in the life of this world is as the likeness of wind in which is intense cold (that) smites the seed produce of a people who haw done injustice to their souls and destroys it; and Allah is not unjust to them, but they are unjust to themselves.

003.118 Y:  O ye who believe!  Take not into your intimacy those outside your ranks:  They will not fail to corrupt you.  They only desire your ruin:  Rank hatred has already appeared from their mouths:  What their hearts conceal is far worse.  We have made plain to you the Signs, if ye have wisdom.

P:  O ye who believe!  Take not for intimates others than your own folk, who would spare no pains to ruin you; they love to hamper you.  Hatred is revealed by (the utterance of) their mouths, but that which their breasts hide is greater.  We have made plain for you the revelations if ye will understand.

S:  O you who believe! do not take for intimate friends from among others than your own people; they do not fall short of inflicting loss upon you; they love what distresses you; vehement hatred has already appeared from out of their mouths, and what their breasts conceal is greater still; indeed, We have made the communications clear to you, if you will understand.
