Shall I inform you, (O people!), on whom it is that the evil ones descend? (۲۲۱)

They descend on every lying, wicked person, (۲۲۲)

(Into whose ears) they pour hearsay vanities, and most of them are liars. (۲۲۳)

And the Poets,- It is those straying in Evil, who follow them: (۲۲۴)

Seest thou not that they wander distracted in every valley?- (۲۲۵)

And that they say what they practise not?- (۲۲۶)

Except those who believe, work righteousness, engage much in the remembrance of Allah, and defend themselves only after they are unjustly attacked. And soon will the unjust assailants know what vicissitudes their affairs will take! (۲۲۷)
