﴿وَإِنَّ مِنْهُمْ لَفَرِيقًا يَلْوُونَ أَلْسِنَتَهُم بِالْكِتَابِ لِتَحْسَبُوهُ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ وَمَا هُوَ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ وَيَقُولُونَ هُوَ مِنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ وَمَا هُوَ مِنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ وَيَقُولُونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الْكَذِبَ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ﴾
[ آل عمران: 78]

English - Sahih International

3:78 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 Allah," but it is not from Allah. And they speak untruth about Allah while they know.

Tafsir Ibn Katheer in English

Abridged Explanation of the Quran

There is a group of Jews who twist their tongues when reciting the Torah that was revealed by Allah, so that you think that they are reciting from the Torah, whereas it is not from the Torah.
Instead, it is their lies and fabrications against Allah.
They say: What we recite has been revealed by Allah – whereas it was not revealed by Allah.
They tell lies about Allah when they know they are lying against Allah and His messengers.

Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali

And verily, among them is a party who distort the Book with their tongues (as they read), so that you may think it is from the Book, but it is not from the Book, and they say: "This is from Allah," but it is not from Allah; and they speak a lie against Allah while they know it.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation

There is among them a section who distort the Book with their tongues: (As they read) you would think it is a part of the Book, but it is no part of the Book; and they say, "That is from Allah," but it is not from Allah: It is they who tell a lie against Allah, and (well) they know it!

Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri

And verily, among them is a party who distort the Book with their tongues, so that you may think it is from the Book, but it is not from the Book, and they say: This is from Alla0h, but it is not from Alla0h؛ and they speak a lie against Alla0h while they know it.

We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".

وإن منهم لفريقا يلوون ألسنتهم بالكتاب لتحسبوه من الكتاب وما هو من الكتاب ويقولون هو من عند الله وما هو من عند الله ويقولون على الله الكذب وهم يعلمون

Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim

Among Ahl al-Kitab are some who seem to recite divine revelations documented in the Quran in jest to distort the words from common use. They expect to imprint on your minds that these are verses of the Quran, while in fact they are not. They relate them to Allah when in fact they are not Allah’s words and they relate to Allah falsehood and they admit it into their minds

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(3:78) And there is a party among them who twist their tongues while reciting the Book to make you think that it is part of the Book when in fact it is not. *66 They say: 'It is from Allah', when in fact it is not from Allah. They falsely fix a lie upon Allah, and do so wittingly.

And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture meaning

*66). This could mean that they either distort the meaning of the Scriptures or twist the words of the text in order to misinterpret it. Its real meaning, however, seems to be that when, during their reading of the Scriptures, they encounter any word or sentence which goes against their interests, and the beliefs and notions which they cherish, they distort the meaning of it by deliberately twisting their tongues. Instances of such tongue-twisting are not altogether wanting among those who, despite their belief in the Qur'an, share some of these people's characteristics. For instance, some people who stress the superhuman character of the Prophet (peace be on him) misread the following verse: innama ana basharun mithlukum (Qur'an 18: 110) (I am nothing but a human being like you), replacing innama by inna ma ana and translate it: '(O Prophet), say to them: "I am not a human being like you."

And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture meaning in Urdu

اُن میں کچھ لوگ ایسے ہیں جو کتاب پڑھتے ہوئے اس طرح زبان کا الٹ پھیر کرتے ہیں کہ تم سمجھو جو کچھ وہ پڑھ رہے ہیں وہ کتاب ہی کی عبارت ہے، حالانکہ وہ کتاب کی عبارت نہیں ہوتی، وہ کہتے ہیں کہ یہ جو کچھ ہم پڑھ رہے ہیں یہ خدا کی طرف سے ہے، حالانکہ وہ خدا کی طرف سے نہیں ہوتا، وہ جان بوجھ کر جھوٹ بات اللہ کی طرف منسوب کر دیتے ہیں
