Then there came from after those whom We described a bad replacement who took the Book from their predecessors, so they read it and knew it, and they opposed its judgment, they taking what appears to them of the enjoyment of the world of the base earnings like the bribery and others; and that for the intensity of their greed and their gluttony, and they say along with that: Indeed Allah will forgive for us our sins wishing upon Allah the falsehoods, and if there comes to these Jews a vanishing enjoyment from the types of the forbidden they take it and make it lawful, ones persistent on their sins and their consumption of the forbidden, was it not taken upon these the covenants by the establishment of the Torah and the action by what is therein, and that they not say about Allah except the truth and that they not lie against Him, and they knew what is in the Book so they wasted it, and left the action by it, and they opposed the covenant of Allah to them in that? and the abode of the Hereafter is better for those who fear Allah, so they comply with His commands, and avoid His prohibitions, do they then not understand these who take the base earnings that what is with Allah is better and more lasting for the God-fearing?
