Ayat No. 153

یَسْــٴَـلُكَ اَهْلُ الْكِتٰبِ اَنْ تُنَزِّلَ عَلَیْهِمْ كِتٰبًا مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ فَقَدْ سَاَلُوْا مُوْسٰۤى اَكْبَرَ مِنْ ذٰلِكَ فَقَالُوْۤا اَرِنَا اللّٰهَ جَهْرَةً فَاَخَذَتْهُمُ الصّٰعِقَةُ بِظُلْمِهِمْۚ-ثُمَّ اتَّخَذُوا الْعِجْلَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُمُ الْبَیِّنٰتُ فَعَفَوْنَا عَنْ ذٰلِكَۚ-وَ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسٰى سُلْطٰنًا مُّبِیْنًا(۱۵۳)

Translation

The People of the Scripture ask you to bring down to them a book from the heaven. But they had asked of Moses [even] greater than that and said, "Show us Allah outright," so the thunderbolt struck them for their wrongdoing. Then they took the calf [for worship] after clear evidences had come to them, and We pardoned that. And We gave Moses a clear authority.

Ayat No. 154

Translation

And We raised over them the mount for [refusal of] their covenant; and We said to them, "Enter the gate bowing humbly", and We said to them, "Do not transgress on the sabbath", and We took from them a solemn covenant.

Ayat No. 155

فَبِمَا نَقْضِهِمْ مِّیْثَاقَهُمْ وَ كُفْرِهِمْ بِاٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَ قَتْلِهِمُ الْاَنْۢبِیَآءَ بِغَیْرِ حَقٍّ وَّ قَوْلِهِمْ قُلُوْبُنَا غُلْفٌؕ-بَلْ طَبَعَ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْهَا بِكُفْرِهِمْ فَلَا یُؤْمِنُوْنَ اِلَّا قَلِیْلًا۪(۱۵۵)

Translation

And [We cursed them] for their breaking of the covenant and their disbelief in the signs of Allah and their killing of the prophets without right and their saying, "Our hearts are wrapped". Rather, Allah has sealed them because of their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few.

Ayat No. 156

Translation

And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah ." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.

Ayat No. 158

بَلْ رَّفَعَهُ اللّٰهُ اِلَیْهِؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ عَزِیْزًا حَكِیْمًا(۱۵۸)

Translation

Rather, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise.

But those firm in knowledge among them and the believers believe in what has been revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what was revealed before you. And the establishers of prayer [especially] and the givers of zakah and the believers in Allah and the Last Day - those We will give a great reward.
