To Him is the call of truth; and those upon whom they call, apart from Him, answer them nothing, but it is as a man who stretches out his hands to water that it may reach his mouth, and it reaches it not. The prayer of the unbelievers goes only astray.
دعوت حق براى اوست. و كسانى كه [مشركان‌] جز او مى‌خوانند، هيچ جوابى به آنان نمى‌دهند، مگر مانند كسى كه دو دستش را به سوى آب بگشايد تا [آب‌] به دهانش برسد، در حالى كه [آب‌] به [دهان‌] او نخواهد رسيد، و دعاى كافران جز بر هدر نباشد.
