يا ايها الذين اوتوا الكتاب امنوا بما نزلنا مصدقا لما معكم من قبل ان نطمس وجوها فنردها على ادبارها او نلعنهم كما لعنا اصحاب السبت وكان امر الله مفعولا

O ye People of the Book! Believe in what We Have (now) revealed, confirming What was (already) with you, Before We change the face and fame Of some (of you) beyond all recognition, And turn them hindwards, Or curse them as We cursed The Sabbath-breakers, For the decision of God Must be carried out.
