Surah Muhammad

اَلَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَصَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ اَضَلَّ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۝١

Allażīna kafarū wa ṣoddū ‘an sabīlillāhi aḍolla a‘mālahum

1. Those who disbelieve and repel from the path of Allah—He nullifies their works.

وَالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَاٰمَنُوْا بِمَا نُزِّلَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَّهُوَ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّهِمْ ۚ كَفَّرَ عَنْهُمْ سَيِّاٰتِهِمْ وَاَصْلَحَ بَالَهُمْ ۝٢

Wal-lażīna āmanū wa ‘amiluṣ-ṣōliḥāti wa āmanū bimā nuzzila ‘alā muḥammadiw wa huwal-ḥaqqu mir robbihim, kaffaro ‘anhum sayyi'ātihim wa aṣlaḥa bālahum

2. While those who believe, and work righteousness, and believe in what was sent down to Muhammad—and it is the truth from their Lord—He remits their sins, and relieves their concerns.

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوا اتَّبَعُوا الْبَاطِلَ وَاَنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّبَعُوا الْحَقَّ مِنْ رَّبِّهِمْ ۗ كَذٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ لِلنَّاسِ اَمْثَالَهُمْ ۝٣

Żālika bi'annal-lażīna kafaruttaba‘ul-bāṭila wa annal-lażīna āmanuttaba‘ul-ḥaqqo mir robbihim, każālika yaḍribullāhu lin-nāsi amṡālahum

3. That is because those who disbelieve follow falsehoods, while those who believe follow the truth from their Lord. Allah thus cites for the people their examples.

فَاِذَا لَقِيْتُمُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا فَضَرْبَ الرِّقَابِۗ حَتّٰٓى اِذَآ اَثْخَنْتُمُوْهُمْ فَشُدُّوا الْوَثَاقَۖ فَاِمَّا مَنًّاۢ بَعْدُ وَاِمَّا فِدَاۤءً حَتّٰى تَضَعَ الْحَرْبُ اَوْزَارَهَا ەۛ ذٰلِكَ ۛ وَلَوْ يَشَاۤءُ اللّٰهُ لَانْتَصَرَ مِنْهُمْ وَلٰكِنْ لِّيَبْلُوَا۟ بَعْضَكُمْ بِبَعْضٍۗ وَالَّذِيْنَ قُتِلُوْا فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ فَلَنْ يُّضِلَّ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۝٤

Fa iżā laqītumul-lażīna kafarū faḍorbar-riqōb, ḥattā iżā aṡkhontumūhum fa syuddul-waṡāq, fa'immā mannam ba‘du wa immā fidā-an ḥattā taḍo‘al-ḥarbu auzārohā - żālika - wa lau yasyā-ullāhu lantaṣoro minhum wa lākil liyabluwa ba‘ḍokum biba‘ḍ, wal-lażīna qutilū fī sabīlillāhi falay yuḍilla a‘mālahum

4. When you encounter those who disbelieve, strike at their necks. Then, when you have routed them, bind them firmly. Then, either release them by grace, or by ransom, until war lays down its burdens. Had Allah willed, He could have defeated them Himself, but He thus tests some of you by means of others. As for those who are killed in the way of Allah, He will not let their deeds go to waste.

سَيَهْدِيْهِمْ وَيُصْلِحُ بَالَهُمْۚ ۝٥

Sayahdīhim wa yuṣliḥu bālahum

5. He will guide them, and will improve their state of mind.

وَيُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ عَرَّفَهَا لَهُمْ ۝٦

Wa yudkhiluhumul-jannata ‘arrofahā lahum

6. And will admit them into Paradise, which He has identified for them.

يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْٓا اِنْ تَنْصُرُوا اللّٰهَ يَنْصُرْكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتْ اَقْدَامَكُمْ ۝٧

Yā ayyuhal-lażīna āmanū in tanṣurullāha yanṣurkum wa yuṡabbit aqdāmakum

7. O you who believe! If you support Allah, He will support you, and will strengthen your foothold.

وَالَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا فَتَعْسًا لَّهُمْ وَاَضَلَّ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۝٨

Wal-lażīna kafarū fata‘sal lahum wa aḍolla a‘mālahum

8. But as for those who disbelieve, for them is perdition, and He will waste their deeds.

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ كَرِهُوْا مَآ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ فَاَحْبَطَ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۝٩

Żālika bi'annahum karihū mā anzalallāhu fa aḥbaṭo a‘mālahum

9. That is because they hated what Allah revealed, so He nullified their deeds.

اَفَلَمْ يَسِيْرُوْا فِى الْاَرْضِ فَيَنْظُرُوْا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ ۗ دَمَّرَ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖوَلِلْكٰفِرِيْنَ اَمْثَالُهَا ۝١٠

Afalam yasīrū fil-arḍi fayanẓurū kaifa kāna ‘āqibatul-lażīna min qoblihim, dammarollāhu ‘alaihim, wa lil-kāfirīna amṡāluhā

10. Have they not journeyed through the earth and seen the consequences for those before them? Allah poured destruction upon them, and for the unbelievers is something comparable.

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ مَوْلَى الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَاَنَّ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ لَا مَوْلٰى لَهُمْ ࣖ ۝١١

Żālika bi'annallāha maulal-lażīna āmanū wa annal-kāfirīna lā maulā lahum

11. That is because Allah is the Master of those who believe, while the disbelievers have no master.

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُدْخِلُ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ ۗوَالَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا يَتَمَتَّعُوْنَ وَيَأْكُلُوْنَ كَمَا تَأْكُلُ الْاَنْعَامُ وَالنَّارُ مَثْوًى لَّهُمْ ۝١٢

Innallāha yudkhilul-lażīna āmanū wa ‘amiluṣ-ṣōliḥāti jannātin tajrī min taḥtihal-anhār, wal-lażīna kafarū yatamatta‘ūna wa ya'kulūna kamā ta'kulul-an‘āmu wan-nāru maṡwal lahum

12. Allah will admit those who believe and do good deeds into gardens beneath which rivers flow. As for those who disbelieve, they enjoy themselves, and eat as cattle eat, and the Fire will be their dwelling.

وَكَاَيِّنْ مِّنْ قَرْيَةٍ هِيَ اَشَدُّ قُوَّةً مِّنْ قَرْيَتِكَ الَّتِيْٓ اَخْرَجَتْكَۚ اَهْلَكْنٰهُمْ فَلَا نَاصِرَ لَهُمْ ۝١٣

Wa ka'ayyim min qoryatin hiya asyaddu quwwatam min qoryatikal-latī akhrojatk, ahlaknāhum falā nāṣiro lahum

13. How many a town was more powerful than your town which evicted you? We destroyed them, and there was no helper for them.

اَفَمَنْ كَانَ عَلٰى بَيِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ كَمَنْ زُيِّنَ لَهٗ سُوْۤءُ عَمَلِهٖ وَاتَّبَعُوْٓا اَهْوَاۤءَهُمْ ۝١٤

Afaman kāna ‘alā bayyinatim mir robbihī kaman zuyyina lahū sū-u ‘amalihī wattaba‘ū ahwā-ahum

14. Is he who stands upon evidence from his Lord, like someone whose evil deed is made to appear good to him? And they follow their own desires?

مَثَلُ الْجَنَّةِ الَّتِيْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ ۗفِيْهَآ اَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ مَّاۤءٍ غَيْرِ اٰسِنٍۚ وَاَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ لَّبَنٍ لَّمْ يَتَغَيَّرْ طَعْمُهٗ ۚوَاَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ خَمْرٍ لَّذَّةٍ لِّلشّٰرِبِيْنَ ەۚ وَاَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ عَسَلٍ مُّصَفًّى ۗوَلَهُمْ فِيْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرٰتِ وَمَغْفِرَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهِمْ ۗ كَمَنْ هُوَ خَالِدٌ فِى النَّارِ وَسُقُوْا مَاۤءً حَمِيْمًا فَقَطَّعَ اَمْعَاۤءَهُمْ ۝١٥

Maṡalul-jannatil-latī wu‘idal-muttaqūn, fīhā anhārum mim mā-in ghoiri āsin, wa anhārum mil labanil lam yataghoyyar ṭo‘muh, wa anhārum min khomril lażżatil lisy-syāribīn, wa anhārum min ‘asalim muṣoffā, wa lahum fīhā min kulliṡ-ṡamarōti wa maghfirotum mir robbihim, kaman huwa khōlidun fin-nāri wa suqū mā-an ḥamīman faqoṭṭo‘a am‘ā-ahum

15. The likeness of the Garden promised to the righteous: in it are rivers of pure water, and rivers of milk forever fresh, and rivers of wine delightful to the drinkers, and rivers of strained honey. And therein they will have of every fruit, and forgiveness from their Lord. Like one abiding in the Fire forever, and are given to drink boiling water, that cuts up their bowels?

وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ يَّسْتَمِعُ اِلَيْكَۚ حَتّٰىٓ اِذَا خَرَجُوْا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ قَالُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ مَاذَا قَالَ اٰنِفًا ۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ طَبَعَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى قُلُوْبِهِمْ وَاتَّبَعُوْٓا اَهْوَاۤءَهُمْ ۝١٦

Wa minhum may yastami‘u ilaiīk, ḥattā iżā khorojū min ‘indika qōlū lil-ażīna ūtul-ilma māżā qōla ānifā, ulā-ikal-ażīna ṭoba‘allāhu ‘alā qulūbihim wattaba‘ū ahwā-ahum

16. Among them are those who listen to you, but when they leave your presence, they say to those given knowledge, “What did he say just now?” Those are they whose hearts Allah has sealed, and they follow their own desires.

وَالَّذِيْنَ اهْتَدَوْا زَادَهُمْ هُدًى وَّاٰتٰىهُمْ تَقْوٰىهُمْ ۝١٧

Wal-ażīnahtadau zādahum hudaw wa ātāhum taqwāhum

17. As for those who are guided, He increases them in guidance, and He has granted them their righteousness.

فَهَلْ يَنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَّا السَّاعَةَ اَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمْ بَغْتَةً ۚ فَقَدْ جَاۤءَ اَشْرَاطُهَا ۚ فَاَنّٰى لَهُمْ اِذَا جَاۤءَتْهُمْ ذِكْرٰىهُمْ ۝١٨

Fahal yanẓurūna illas-ā‘ata an ta'tiyahum baghtah, faqod jā-a asyrōṭuhā, fa'annā lahum iżā jā-at-hum żikrōhum

18. Are they just waiting until the Hour comes to them suddenly? Its tokens have already come. But how will they be reminded when it has come to them?

فَاعْلَمْ اَنَّهٗ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْۢبِكَ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ وَالْمُؤْمِنٰتِۚ وَاللّٰهُ يَعْلَمُ مُتَقَلَّبَكُمْ وَمَثْوٰىكُمْ ࣖ ۝١٩

Fa‘lam annahū lā ilāha illallāhu wastaghfir liżambika wa lil-u'minīna wal-u'mināt, wallāhu ya‘lamu mutaqollabakum wa maṡwākum

19. Know that there is no god but Allah, and ask forgiveness for your sin, and for the believing men and believing women. Allah knows your movements, and your resting-place.

وَيَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَوْلَا نُزِّلَتْ سُوْرَةٌ ۚفَاِذَآ اُنْزِلَتْ سُوْرَةٌ مُّحْكَمَةٌ وَّذُكِرَ فِيْهَا الْقِتَالُ ۙرَاَيْتَ الَّذِيْنَ فِيْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ يَّنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَيْكَ نَظَرَ الْمَغْشِيِّ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْمَوْتِۗ فَاَوْلٰى لَهُمْۚ ۝٢٠

Wa yaqūlul-ażīna āmanū lau lā nuzzilat sūroh, fa iżā unzilat sūrotum muḥkamatuw wa żukiro fīhal-itāl, ro'aital-ażīna fī qulūbihim maroḍuy yanẓurūna ilaika naẓorol-maghsyiyyi ‘alaihi minal-maut, fa'aulā lahum

20. Those who believe say, “If only a chapter is sent down.” Yet when a decisive chapter is sent down, and fighting is mentioned in it, you see those in whose hearts is sickness looking at you with the look of someone fainting at death. So woe to them!

طَاعَةٌ وَّقَوْلٌ مَّعْرُوْفٌۗ فَاِذَا عَزَمَ الْاَمْرُۗ فَلَوْ صَدَقُوا اللّٰهَ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُمْۚ ۝٢١

Ṭō‘atuw wa qoulum ma‘rūf, fa'iżā ‘azamal-amr, falau ṣodaqullāha lakāna khoirol lahum

21. Obedience and upright speech. Then, when the matter is settled, being true to Allah would have been better for them.

فَهَلْ عَسَيْتُمْ اِنْ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ اَنْ تُفْسِدُوْا فِى الْاَرْضِ وَتُقَطِّعُوْٓا اَرْحَامَكُمْ ۝٢٢

Fahal ‘asaitum in tawallaitum an tufsidū fil-arḍi wa tuqoṭṭi‘ū arḥāmakum

22. If you turn away, you are likely to make mischief on earth, and sever your family ties.

اُولٰۤىِٕكَ الَّذِيْنَ لَعَنَهُمُ اللّٰهُ فَاَصَمَّهُمْ وَاَعْمٰٓى اَبْصَارَهُمْ ۝٢٣

Ulā-ikal-lażīna la‘anahumullāhu fa aṣommahum wa a‘mā abṣōrohum

23. Those are they whom Allah has cursed. He made them deaf, and blinded their sight.

اَفَلَا يَتَدَبَّرُوْنَ الْقُرْاٰنَ اَمْ عَلٰى قُلُوْبٍ اَقْفَالُهَا ۝٢٤

Afalā yatadabbarūnal-qur'āna am ‘alā qulūbin aqfāluhā

24. Will they not ponder the Quran? Or are there locks upon their hearts?

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ ارْتَدُّوْا عَلٰٓى اَدْبَارِهِمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الْهُدَى الشَّيْطٰنُ سَوَّلَ لَهُمْۗ وَاَمْلٰى لَهُمْ ۝٢٥

Innal-lażīnartaddū ‘alā adbārihim mim ba‘di mā tabayyana lahumul-hudasy-syaiṭōnu sawwala lahum, wa amlā lahum

25. Those who reverted after the guidance became clear to them—Satan has enticed them, and has given them latitude.

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ قَالُوْا لِلَّذِيْنَ كَرِهُوْا مَا نَزَّلَ اللّٰهُ سَنُطِيْعُكُمْ فِيْ بَعْضِ الْاَمْرِۚ وَاللّٰهُ يَعْلَمُ اِسْرَارَهُمْ ۝٢٦

Żālika bi'annahum qōlū lil-lażīna karihū mā nazzalallāhu sanuṭī‘ukum fī ba‘ḍil-amr, wallāhu ya‘lamu isrōrohum

26. That is because they said to those who hated what Allah has revealed, “We will obey you in certain matters.” But Allah knows their secret thoughts.

فَكَيْفَ اِذَا تَوَفَّتْهُمُ الْمَلٰۤىِٕكَةُ يَضْرِبُوْنَ وُجُوْهَهُمْ وَاَدْبَارَهُمْ ۝٢٧

Fa kaifa iżā tawaffat-humul-malā-ikatu yaḍribūna wujūhahum wa adbārohum

27. How about when the angels take them at death, beating their faces and their backs?

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمُ اتَّبَعُوْا مَآ اَسْخَطَ اللّٰهَ وَكَرِهُوْا رِضْوَانَهٗ فَاَحْبَطَ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ࣖ ۝٢٨

Żālika bi'annahumuttaba‘ū mā askhoṭollāha wa karihū riḍwānahū fa aḥbaṭo a‘mālahum

28. That is because they pursued what displeases Allah, and they disliked His approval, so He nullified their works.

اَمْ حَسِبَ الَّذِيْنَ فِيْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ اَنْ لَّنْ يُّخْرِجَ اللّٰهُ اَضْغَانَهُمْ ۝٢٩

Am ḥasibal-lażīna fī qulūbihim maroḍun allay yukhrijallāhu aḍghōnahum

29. Do those in whose hearts is sickness think that Allah will not expose their malice?

وَلَوْ نَشَاۤءُ لَاَرَيْنٰكَهُمْ فَلَعَرَفْتَهُمْ بِسِيْمٰهُمْ ۗوَلَتَعْرِفَنَّهُمْ فِيْ لَحْنِ الْقَوْلِۗ وَاللّٰهُ يَعْلَمُ اَعْمَالَكُمْ ۝٣٠

Wa lau nasyā-u la'aroinākahum fala‘aroftahum bisīmāhum, wa lata‘rifannahum fī laḥnil-qoul, wallāhu ya‘lamu a‘mālakum

30. Had We willed, We could have shown them to you, and you would have recognized them by their marks. Yet you will recognize them by their tone of speech. And Allah knows your actions.

وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُمْ حَتّٰى نَعْلَمَ الْمُجٰهِدِيْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَالصّٰبِرِيْنَۙ وَنَبْلُوَا۟ اَخْبَارَكُمْ ۝٣١

Wa lanabluwannakum ḥattā na‘lamal-mujāhidīna minkum waṣ-ṣōbirīn, wa nabluwa akhbārokum

31. We will certainly test you, until We know those among you who strive, and those who are steadfast, and We will test your reactions.

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَصَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ وَشَاۤقُّوا الرَّسُوْلَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الْهُدٰى لَنْ يَّضُرُّوا اللّٰهَ شَيْـًٔاۗ وَسَيُحْبِطُ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۝٣٢

Innal-lażīna kafarū wa ṣoddū ‘an sabīlillāhi wa syāqqur-rosūla mim ba‘di mā tabayyana lahumul-hudā lay yaḍurrullāha syai'ā, wa sayuḥbiṭu a‘mālahum

32. Those who disbelieve, and hinder from the path of Allah, and oppose the Messenger after guidance has become clear to them—they will not hurt Allah in the least, but He will nullify their deeds.

يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْٓا اَطِيْعُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِيْعُوا الرَّسُوْلَ وَلَا تُبْطِلُوْٓا اَعْمَالَكُمْ ۝٣٣

Yā ayyuhal-lażīna āmanū aṭī‘ullāha wa aṭī‘ur-rosūla wa lā tubṭilū a‘mālakum

33. O you who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and do not let your deeds go to waste.

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَصَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ مَاتُوْا وَهُمْ كُفَّارٌ فَلَنْ يَّغْفِرَ اللّٰهُ لَهُمْ ۝٣٤

Innal-lażīna kafarū wa ṣoddū ‘an sabīlillāhi ṡumma mātū wa hum kuffārun falay yaghfirollāhu lahum

34. Those who disbelieve, and hinder from Allah’s path, and then die as disbelievers—Allah will not forgive them.

فَلَا تَهِنُوْا وَتَدْعُوْٓا اِلَى السَّلْمِۖ وَاَنْتُمُ الْاَعْلَوْنَۗ وَاللّٰهُ مَعَكُمْ وَلَنْ يَّتِرَكُمْ اَعْمَالَكُمْ ۝٣٥

Falā tahinū wa tad‘ū ilas-salm, wa antumul-a‘laun, wallāhu ma‘akum wa lay yatirokum a‘mālakum

35. So do not waver and call for peace while you have the upper hand. Allah is with you, and He will not waste your efforts.

اِنَّمَا الْحَيٰوةُ الدُّنْيَا لَعِبٌ وَّلَهْوٌ ۗوَاِنْ تُؤْمِنُوْا وَتَتَّقُوْا يُؤْتِكُمْ اُجُوْرَكُمْ وَلَا يَسْـَٔلْكُمْ اَمْوَالَكُمْ ۝٣٦

Innamal-ḥayātud-dun-yā la‘ibuw wa lahw, wa in tu'minū wa tattaqū yu'tikum ujūrokum wa lā yas'alkum amwālakum

36. The life of this world is nothing but play and pastime. But if you have faith and lead a righteous life, He will grant you your rewards, and He will not ask you for your possessions.

اِنْ يَّسْـَٔلْكُمُوْهَا فَيُحْفِكُمْ تَبْخَلُوْا وَيُخْرِجْ اَضْغَانَكُمْ ۝٣٧

Iy yas'alkumūhā fa yuḥfikum tabkholū wa yukhrij aḍghōnakum

37. Were He to ask you for it, and press you, you would become tightfisted, and He would expose your unwillingness.

هٰٓاَنْتُمْ هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ تُدْعَوْنَ لِتُنْفِقُوْا فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِۚ فَمِنْكُمْ مَّنْ يَّبْخَلُ ۚوَمَنْ يَّبْخَلْ فَاِنَّمَا يَبْخَلُ عَنْ نَّفْسِهٖ ۗوَاللّٰهُ الْغَنِيُّ وَاَنْتُمُ الْفُقَرَاۤءُ ۗوَاِنْ تَتَوَلَّوْا يَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْمًا غَيْرَكُمْۙ ثُمَّ لَا يَكُوْنُوْٓا اَمْثَالَكُمْ ࣖ ۝٣٨

Hā antum hā-ulā-i tud‘auna litunfiqū fī sabīlillāh, fa minkum may yabkhol, wa may yabkhol fa innamā yabkholu ‘an nafsih, wallāhul-ghoniyyu wa antumul-fuqorō', wa in tatawallau yastabdil qouman ghoirokum, ṡumma lā yakūnū amṡālakum

38. Here you are, being called to spend in the cause of Allah. Among you are those who withhold; but whoever withholds is withholding against his own soul. Allah is the Rich, while you are the needy. And if you turn away, He will replace you with another people, and they will not be like you.
