(And if ye turn away) from faith and repentance, (still I have conveyed unto you that wherewith I was sent unto you) of the message and about your destruction, (and my Lord will set in place of you a folk other than you) who are better and more obedient than you. (Ye cannot injure Him at all) your destruction will not harm Allah in any way. (Lo! my Lord is Guardian) and Witness (over all things) related to your works.
