A party among the people of the Book would fain mislead you:  but they only mislead themselves, and perceive it not.

O people of the Book! why disbelieve the signs of God, of which yourselves have been witnesses?

O people of the Book! why clothe ye the truth with falsehood?  Why wittingly hide the truth?

Others of the people of the Book say:  “Believe in what hath been sent down to the believers, at daybreak, and deny it at its close"-Thus do they go back-

“And believe in those only who follow your Religion.”  Say:  True guidance is guidance from God-that to others may be imparted the like of what hath been imparted to you.  Will they wrangle then with you in the presence of their Lord?  Say:  Plenteous gifts are in the hands of God:  He imparteth them unto whom He will, and God is Bounteous, Wise.

He will vouchsafe His mercy to whom He will, for God is of great bounteousness.

Among the people of the Book are some, to one of whom if thou entrust a thousand dinars, he will restore them to thee:  And there is of them to whom if thou entrust a dinar, he will not restore it to thee, unless thou be ever instant with him.

This-because they say, “We are not bound to keep faith with the ignorant (Pagan) folk, and they utter a lie against God, and know they do so:” 

But whoso is true to his engagement, and feareth God,-verily God loveth those that fear Him.

Verily they who barter their engagement with God, and their oaths, for some paltry price-These! no portion for them in the world to come! and God will not speak to them, and will not look on them, on the day of resurrection, and will not assoil them! for them, a grievous chastisement!

And some truly are there among them who torture the Scriptures with their tongues, in order that ye may suppose it to be from the Scripture, yet it is not from the Scripture.  And they say, “This is from God;” yet it is not from God:  and they utter a lie against God, and they know they do so.

It beseemeth not a man, that God should give him the Scriptures and the Wisdom, and the gift of prophecy, and that then he should say to his followers, “Be ye worshippers of me, as well as of God;” 30 but rather, “Be ye perfect in things pertaining to God, since ye know the Scriptures, and have studied deep.”

God doth not command you to take the angels or the prophets as lords.31 What! would he command you to become infidels after ye have been Muslims?

When God entered into covenant with the prophets,32 he said, “This is the Book and the Wisdom which I give you.  Hereafter shall a prophet came unto you to confirm the Scriptures already with you.  Ye shall surely believe on him, and ye shall surely aid him.  Are ye resolved?” said he, “and do ye accept the covenant on these terms?” They said, “We are resolved;” “Be ye then the witnesses,” said he, “and I will be a witness as well as you.
