M. H. Shakir, The Holy Quran; Arabic Text and English Translation; Foot-notes by M. H. Shakir (1974)

52. (As to) those whom We gave the Book before it, they are believers in it.

53. And when it is recited to them they say: We believe in it; surely it is the truth from our Lord; surely we were submitters before this.

54. These shall be granted their reward twice, because they are steadfast and they repel evil with good and spend out of what We have given them.

55. And when they hear idle talk they turn aside from it and say: We shall have our deeds and you shall have your deeds; peace be on you, we do not desire the ignorant.

56. Surely you cannot guide whom you love, but Allah guides whom He pleases, and he knows best the followers of the right way.

57. And they say: If we follow the guidance with you, we shall be carried off from our country. What! have We not settled them in a safe, sacred territory to which fruits of every kind shall be drawn? — a sustenance from Us; but most of them do not know.
