Ali 'Imran 3:187 واذ اخذ الله ميثاق الذين اوتوا الكتاب لتبيننه للناس ولا تكتمونه فنبذوه وراء ظهورهم واشتروا به ثمنا قليلا فبيس ما يشترون ١٨٧
وَإِذۡ
أَخَذَ
ٱللَّهُ
مِيثَٰقَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
أُوتُواْ
ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ
لَتُبَيِّنُنَّهُۥ
لِلنَّاسِ
وَلَا
تَكۡتُمُونَهُۥ
فَنَبَذُوهُ
وَرَآءَ
ظُهُورِهِمۡ
وَٱشۡتَرَوۡاْ
بِهِۦ
ثَمَنٗا
قَلِيلٗاۖ
فَبِئۡسَ
مَا
يَشۡتَرُونَ
