Never will the Jews or the Christians be satisfied with thee unless thou follow their form of religion. Say: "The Guidance of Allah,-that is the (only) Guidance." Wert thou to follow their desires after the knowledge which hath reached thee, then wouldst thou find neither Protector nor helper against Allah.

Even if thou wert to bring to the people of the Book all the Signs (together), they would not follow Thy Qibla; nor art thou going to follow their Qibla; nor indeed will they follow each other's Qibla. If thou after the knowledge hath reached thee, Wert to follow their (vain) desires,-then wert thou Indeed (clearly) in the wrong.

To thee We sent the Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture that came before it, and guarding it in safety: so judge between them by what Allah hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging from the Truth that hath come to thee. To each among you have we prescribed a law and an open way. If Allah had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hath given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to Allah; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute;

And this (He commands): Judge thou between them by what Allah hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires, but beware of them lest they beguile thee from any of that (teaching) which Allah hath sent down to thee. And if they turn away, be assured that for some of their crime it is Allah's purpose to punish them. And truly most men are rebellious.

Thus have We revealed it to be a judgment of authority in Arabic. Wert thou to follow their (vain) desires after the knowledge which hath reached thee, then wouldst thou find neither protector nor defender against Allah.

If the Truth had been in accord with their desires, truly the heavens and the earth, and all beings therein would have been in confusion and corruption! Nay, We have sent them their admonition, but they turn away from their admonition.

But if they hearken not to thee, know that they only follow their own lusts: and who is more astray than one who follow his own lusts, devoid of guidance from Allah? for Allah guides not people given to wrong-doing.

Nay, the wrong-doers (merely) follow their own lusts, being devoid of knowledge. But who will guide those whom Allah leaves astray? To them there will be no helpers.

Now then, for that (reason), call (them to the Faith), and stand steadfast as thou art commanded, nor follow thou their vain desires; but say: "I believe in the Book which Allah has sent down; and I am commanded to judge justly between you. Allah is our Lord and your Lord: for us (is the responsibility for) our deeds, and for you for your deeds. There is no contention between us and you. Allah will bring us together, and to Him is (our) Final Goal.

Is then one who is on a clear (Path) from his Lord, no better than one to whom the evil of his conduct seems pleasing, and such as follow their own lusts?

And among them are men who listen to thee, but in the end, when they go out from thee, they say to those who have received Knowledge, "What is it he said just then?" Such are men whose hearts Allah has sealed, and who follow their own lusts.

They reject (the warning) and follow their (own) lusts but every matter has its appointed time.

犹太教徒和基督教徒绝不喜欢你，直到你顺从他们的宗教。你说：“真主的指导，确是指导。”在知识降临你之後，如果你顺从他们的私欲，那末，你绝无任何保护者或援助者，以反抗真主。

即使你以一切迹象昭示曾受天经者，他们必不顺从你的朝向，你也绝不顺从他们的朝向；他们各守自己的朝向，互不相从。在知识降临你之後，如果你顺从他们的私欲，那末，你必定是不义者。

我降示你这部包含真理的经典，以证实以前的一切天经，而监护之。故你当依真主所降示的经典而为他们判决，你不要舍弃降临你的真理而顺从他们的私欲。我已为你们中每一个民族制定一种教律和法程。如果真主意欲，他必使你们变成一个民族。但他把你们分成许多民族，以便他考验你们能不能遵守他所赐予你们的教律和法程。故你们当争先为善。你们全体都要归于真主，他要把你们所争论的是非告诉你们。

你当依真主所降示的经典而替他们判决，你不要顺从他们的私欲，你当谨防他们引诱你违背真主所降示你的一部分经典。如果他们违背正道，那末，你须知真主欲因他们的一部分罪过，而惩罚他们。有许多人，确是犯罪的。

我这样把它降示为阿拉伯文的智慧。在知识降临你之后，如果你顺从他们的欲望，那末，你对真主的（惩罚）绝无任何保护者，也绝无任何保卫者。

假若真理顺从他们的私欲，天地万物，必然毁坏。不然， 我已把他们的教诲昭示他们，但他们背弃他们的教诲。

如果他们不答应你，那末，你应当知道他们只是顺从自己的私欲。舍真主所启示的正道，而顺从自己的私欲者，有谁比他更迷误呢？真主必定不引导不义的民众。

不然，不义者，无知地顺从自己的私欲。真主所误导的人，谁能引导他呢？他们绝没有援助者。

你应当召人于此道，你应当谨遵天命，常守正道，不要顺从他们的私欲。你说：“我确信真主所降示的经典，我奉命公平待遇你们。真主是我的主，也是你们的主。我们有我们的工作，你们有你们的工作，我们不必和你们辩驳。真主将集合我们，他是唯一的归宿。”

依据从主降示的明证者，与那为自己的恶行所迷惑，而且顺从私欲者是一样的吗？

他们中有些人静听你的演说，等到他们从你的面前出去的时候，他们对有学识者说：“刚才他说些什么？”这等人，真主已封闭他们的心，他们顺从私欲。

他们否认他，而且顺从私欲。每一件事都是确定的。
