Whenever any trouble befalls a person, he prays to Us all the time, lying on his side, sitting or standing; but when We remove his trouble, he goes on his way as if he had never prayed to Us for the removal of his trouble. Thus it is that the doings of the transgressors are made to look fair to them.
و چون آدمى را گزندى فرا رسد ما را بخواند به پهلو خفته، يا نشسته، يا ايستاده. پس همين كه گزند وى از او برداريم چنان برود كه گويى هرگز ما را براى گزندى كه به وى رسيده بود نخوانده است. اينچنين براى گزافكاران كارهايى كه مى‌كردند آرايش يافته است.
