Say ( O Muhammad SAW ) : " O people of the Scripture ( Jews and Christians ) ! Exceed not the limits in your religion ( by believing in something ) other than the truth , and do not follow the vain desires of people who went astray in times gone by , and who misled many , and strayed ( themselves ) from the Right Path .
