تلك القرى نقص عليك من انبائها ولقد جاءتهم رسلهم بالبينات فما كانوا ليؤمنوا بما كذبوا من قبل كذلك يطبع الله على قلوب الكافرين

Such were the towns Whose story We (thus) Relate unto thee: There came indeed to them Their apostles with clear (Signs): But they would not believe What they had rejected before. Thus doth God seal up The hearts of those Who reject Faith.
