And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture with their tongues so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture. And they say, "This is from Allāh," but it is not from Allāh. And they speak untruth about Allāh while they know.

நிச்சயமாக அவர்களில் ஒரு பிரிவார் இருக்கின்றார்கள் - அவர்கள் வேதத்தை ஓதும்போதுத் தங்கள் நாவுகளைச் சாய்த்து ஓதுகிறார்கள் - (அதனால் உண்டாகும் மாற்றங்களையும்) வேதத்தின் ஒரு பகுதிதானென்று நீங்கள் எண்ணிக் கொள்வதற்காக. ஆனால் அது வேதத்தில் உள்ளதல்ல "அது அல்லாஹ்விடம் இருந்து (வந்தது)" என்றும் அவர்கள் கூறுகிறார்கள்; ஆனால் அது அல்லாஹ்விடமிருந்து (வந்ததும்) அல்ல. இன்னும் அறிந்து கொண்டே அவர்கள் அல்லாஹ்வின் மீது பொய் கூறுகின்றார்கள்.

තවද නියත වශයෙන් ම ඔවුන් අතරින් තවත් පිරිසක් ද වෙති. ඔවුහු ධර්ම ග්‍රන්ථය දිවවල් හරවමින් කියවති. එය, ධර්ම ග්‍රන්ථයේ දෙයක් බව නුඹලා සිතනු පිණිස ය. එහෙත් එය ධර්ම ග්‍රන්ථයෙන් නො වෙයි. එමෙන් ම එය අල්ලාහ් වෙතින් යැයි පවසති. එහෙත් එය අල්ලාහ් වෙතින් ද නො වෙයි. තවද ඔවුහු දැනුවත්ව ම අල්ලාහ් කෙරෙහි බොරු ගොතා පවසති.

یقیناً ان میں ایسا گروه بھی ہے جو کتاب پڑھتے ہوئے اپنی زبان مروڑتا ہے تاکہ تم اسے کتاب ہی کی عبارت خیال کرو حاﻻنکہ دراصل وه کتاب میں سے نہیں، اور یہ کہتے بھی ہیں کہ وه اللہ تعالیٰ کی طرف سے ہے حاﻻنکہ در اصل وه اللہ تعالی کی طرف سے نہیں، وه تو دانستہ اللہ تعالیٰ پر جھوٹ بولتے ہیں۔

かれらの中には,自分の舌で啓典をゆがめ,啓典にないことを啓典の一部であるかのように,あなたがたに思わせようとする一派がある。またかれらは,アッラーの御許からではないもの を,「それはアッラーから来たものだ。」と言う。かれらは故意にアッラーに就いて虚偽を語る者である。

他们中确有一部分人,篡改天经,以便你们把曾经篡改的当做天经,其实,那不是天经。他们说:这是从真主那里降示的。其实那不是从真主那里降示的,他们明知故犯地假借真主的名义而造遥。

Tafsir of 3:78

The Jews Alter Allah's Words Allah states that some Jews, may Allah's curses descend on them, distort Allah's Words with their tongues, change them from their appropriate places, and alter their intended meanings. They do this to deceive the ignorant people by making it appear that their words are in the Book of Allah.

Al-Bukhari reported that Ibn `Abbas said that the Ayah means they alter and add although none among Allah's creation can remove the Words of Allah from His Books, they alter and distort their apparent meanings. Wahb bin Munabbih said, "The Tawrah and the Injil remain as Allah revealed them, and no letter in them was removed.…
