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

Laleh Bakhtiar

Or so that you not say: If the Book was caused to descend to us, we would have been better guided than they. Surely, there drew near you clear portents from your Lord and a guidance and a mercy. And who, then, does greater wrong than he who denied the signs of God and drew aside from them. We will give recompense to those who draw aside from Our signs with a dire punishment because they had been drawing aside.
