Know they not that God knows what they keep secret and what they publish? (77) And some there are of them that are common folk not knowing the Book, but only fancies and mere conjectures. (78) So woe to those who write the Book with their hands, then say, 'This is from God,' that they may sell it for a little price; so woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for their earnings. (79) And they say, 'The Fire shall not touch us save a number of days.' Say: 'Have you taken with God a covenant? God will not fail in His covenant; or say you things against God of which you know nothing? (80) Not so; whoso earns evil, and is encompassed by his transgression -- those are the inhabitants of the Fire; there they shall dwell forever. (81) And those that believe, and do deeds of righteousness -- those are the inhabitants of Paradise; there they shall dwell forever.' (82) And when We took compact with the Children of Israel: 'You shall not serve any save God; and to be good to parents, and the near kinsman, and to orphans, and to the needy; and speak good to men, and perform the prayer, and pay the alms.' Then you turned away, all but a few of you, swerving aside. (83)
