¹³⁰ O ye who believe! Devour not Usury, doubled and multiplied; but fear God; that ye may (really) prosper.

¹³¹ Fear the Fire, which is prepared for those who reject Faith:

¹³² And obey God and the Apostle; that ye may obtain mercy.

¹³³ Be quick in the race for forgiveness from your Lord, and for a Garden whose width is that (of the whole) of the heavens and of the earth, prepared for the righteous,—

¹³⁴ Those who spend (freely), whether in prosperity, or in adversity; who restrain anger, and pardon (all) men;— for God loves those who do good;—

¹³⁵ And those who, having done something to be ashamed of, or wronged their own souls, earnestly bring God to mind, and ask for forgiveness for their sins,— and who can forgive sins except God?— and are never obstinate in persisting knowingly in (the wrong) they have done.

¹³⁶ For such the reward is forgiveness from their Lord, and Gardens with rivers flowing underneath,— an eternal dwelling: How excellent a recompense for those who work (and strive)!

¹³⁷ Many were the Ways of Life that have passed away before you: travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth.

¹³⁸ Here is a plain statement to men, a guidance and instruction to those who fear God!

¹³⁹ So lose not heart, nor fall into despair: For ye must gain mastery if ye are true in Faith.

¹⁴⁰ If a wound hath touched you, be sure a similar wound hath touched the others. Such days (of varying fortunes) We give to men and men by turns: that God may know those that believe, and that He may take to Himself from your ranks martyr-witnesses (to Truth). And God loveth not those that do wrong.

¹⁴¹ God's object also is to purge those that are true in Faith and to deprive of blessing those that resist Faith.

¹⁴² Did ye think that ye would enter Heaven without God testing those of you who fought hard (in His Cause) and remained steadfast?

¹⁴³ Ye did indeed wish for Death before ye met him: Now ye have seen him with your own eyes, (and ye flinch!)
