Arabic: مِنَ الَّذِیۡنَ ہَادُوۡا یُحَرِّفُوۡنَ الۡکَلِمَ عَنۡ مَّوَاضِعِہٖ وَ یَقُوۡلُوۡنَ سَمِعۡنَا وَ عَصَیۡنَا وَ اسۡمَعۡ غَیۡرَ مُسۡمَعٍ وَّ رَاعِنَا لَـیًّۢا بِاَلۡسِنَتِہِمۡ وَ طَعۡنًا فِی الدِّیۡنِ ؕ وَ لَوۡ اَنَّہُمۡ قَالُوۡا سَمِعۡنَا وَ اَطَعۡنَا وَ اسۡمَعۡ وَ انۡظُرۡنَا لَکَانَ خَیۡرًا لَّہُمۡ وَ اَقۡوَمَ ۙ وَ لٰکِنۡ لَّعَنَہُمُ اللّٰہُ بِکُفۡرِہِمۡ فَلَا یُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ اِلَّا قَلِیۡلًا ﴿۴۶﴾
Translation: Among the Jews are those who distort words from their [proper] usages and say, "We hear and disobey" and "Hear but be not heard" and "Ra'ina," twisting their tongues and defaming the religion. And if they had said [instead], "We hear and obey" and "Wait for us [to understand]," it would have been better for them and more suitable. But Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few.
