Sura 6
Aya 157
157
أَو تَقولوا لَو أَنّا أُنزِلَ عَلَينَا الكِتابُ لَكُنّا أَهدىٰ مِنهُم ۚ فَقَد جاءَكُم بَيِّنَةٌ مِن رَبِّكُم وَهُدًى وَرَحمَةٌ ۚ فَمَن أَظلَمُ مِمَّن كَذَّبَ بِآياتِ اللَّهِ وَصَدَفَ عَنها ۗ سَنَجزِي الَّذينَ يَصدِفونَ عَن آياتِنا سوءَ العَذابِ بِما كانوا يَصدِفونَ

A. J. Arberry

or lest you say, 'If the Book had been sent down upon us, we had surely been more rightly guided than they.' Yet indeed a clear sign has come to you from your Lord, and a guidance and a mercy; and who does greater evil than he who cries lies to God's signs, and turns away from them? We shall surely recompense those who turn away from Our signs with an evil chastisement for their turning away.
