ان تتوبا الى الله فقد صغت قلوبكما وان تظاهرا عليه فان الله هو مولاه وجبريل وصالح المؤمنين والملائكة بعد ذلك ظهير

If ye two turn in repentance To Him, your hearts Are indeed so inclined; But if ye back up Each other against him, Truly God is his Protector, And Gabriel, and (every) Righteous one among those Who believe,—and furthermore, The angels—will back (him) up.
