Verse (3:119)

The analysis above refers to the 119th verse of chapter 3 (sūrat āl ʿim'rān):

Sahih International: Here you are loving them but they are not loving you, while you believe in the Scripture - all of it. And when they meet you, they say, "We believe." But when they are alone, they bite their fingertips at you in rage. Say, "Die in your rage. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of that within the breasts."
