151. Such are disbelievers in truth; and for disbelievers We prepare a shameful doom.
152. But those who believe in Allah and His messengers and make no distinction between any of them, unto them Allah will give their wages; and Allah was ever Forgiving, Merciful.
153. The People of the Scripture ask of you that you shouldst cause an (actual) Book to descend upon them from heaven. They asked a greater thing of Moses {Musa} aforetime, for they said: Show us Allah plainly. The storm of lightning seized them for their wickedness. Then (even after that) they chose the calf (for worship) after clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty) had come unto them. And We forgave them that! And We bestowed on Moses {Musa} evident authority.
154. And We caused the Mount to tower above them at (the taking of) their covenant: and We bade them: Enter the gate, prostrate! and we bade them: Transgress not the Sabbath! and We took from them a firm covenant.
155. Then because of their breaking of their covenant, and their disbelieving in the revelations of Allah, and their slaying of the Prophets wrongfully, and their saying: Our hearts are hardened nay, but Allah has set a seal upon them for their disbelief, so that they believe not save a few
156. And because of their disbelief and of their speaking against Mary a tremendous calumny;
157. And because of their saying: We slew the Messiah son of Mary}, Allah's messenger They slew him not nor crucified, but it appeared so unto them; and lo! those who disagree concerning it are in doubt thereof; they have no knowledge thereof save pursuit of a conjecture ; they slew him not for certain,
158. But Allah took him up unto Himself. Allah was ever Mighty, wise.
159. There is not one of the People of the Scripture but will believe in him before his death, and on the Day of Resurrection he will be a witness against them.
160. Because of the wrongdoing of the Jews We forbade them good things which were (before) made lawful unto them, and because of their much hindering from Allah's way,
161. And of their taking usury when they were forbidden it, and of their devouring people's wealth by false pretenses. We have prepared for those of them who disbelieve a painful doom.
162. But those of them who are firm in knowledge and the believers believe in that which is revealed unto you, and that which was revealed before you, especially the diligent in prayer and those who pay the poordue, the believers in Allah and the Last Day. Upon these We shall bestow immense reward.
163. Lo! We inspire you as We inspired Noah and the prophets after him, as We inspired Abraham {Ibrahim} and Ishmael {Isma'il) and Isaac and Jacob {Ya'qub} and the tribes, and Jesus and Job and Jonah and Aaron and Solomon, and as we imparted unto David the Psalms;
164. And messengers We have mentioned unto you before and messengers We have not mentioned unto you; and Allah spoke directly unto Moses {Musa};
165. Messengers of good cheer and off warning, in order that mankind might have no argument against Allah after the messengers. Allah was ever Mighty, Wise.
166. But Allah (Himself) testifies concerning that which He has revealed unto you; in His knowledge has He revealed it; and the Angels also testify. And Allah is sufficient witness.
167. Lo! those who disbelieve and hinder (others) from the way of Allah, they verily have wandered far astray.
168. Lo! those who disbelieve and deal in wrong, Allah will never forgive them, neither will He guide them unto a road,
169. Except the road of hell, wherein they will abide for ever. And that is ever easy for Allah.
170. O mankind! The messenger has come unto you with the truth from your Lord. Therefore believe; (it is) better for you. But if you disbelieve, still, lo! unto Allah belongs whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth. Allah is ever Knower, Wise.
171. O People of the Scripture! Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter aught concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary {'Isa ibn Maryam}, was only a messenger of Allah, and His word which He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers, and say not "Three Cease"! (it is) better for you! Allah is only One God. Far is it removed from His transcendent majesty that he should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as Defender.
172. The Messiah will never scorn to be a slave unto Allah, nor will the favored angels. Whoso scorns His service and is proud, all such will He assemble unto Him;
173. Then, as for those who believed and did good works, unto them will He pay their wages in full, adding unto them of His bounty; and as for those who were scornful and proud, them will He punish with a painful doom. And they will not find for them, against Allah, any protecting friend or helper.
174. O mankind! Now has a proof from your Lord come unto you, and We have sent down unto you a clear light;
175. As for those who believe in Allah, and hold fast unto Him, them He will cause to enter into His mercy and grace, and will guide them unto Him by a straight road.
176. They ask you for a pronouncement. Say: Allah has pronounced for you concerning distant kindred. If a man die childless and he have a sister, hers is half the heritage, and he would have inherited from her had she died childless. And if there be two sisters, then theirs are two-thirds of the heritage, and if they be brethren, men and women, unto the male is the equivalent of the share of two females. Allah expounds unto you, so that you err not. Allah is Knower of all things.
